Bayern Munich set to claim German football championship, according to Bundesliga coaches' consensus - German football coaches concur: Bayern Munich secures the title of German champion in Bundesliga
FC Bayern Munich Retains Bundesliga Title Ahead of New Season
As the new Bundesliga season approaches, it's clear that FC Bayern Munich remains the team to beat. The record champions successfully defended their title in the 2021-2022 season, finishing first in the league standings[1].
In the previous season, Bayern led the table with Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen trailing behind. Their consistent performance throughout the season culminated in them claiming the title once more, a testament to their dominance in Germany's top flight[1].
Although no explicit pre-season predictions for Bayern's chances were found, the outcome of the 2021-2022 season demonstrates that the club maintained its position at the top. Bayern's squad quality and depth, combined with their track record of success, historically make them favourites to retain the title each season in this period. Their 2021-2022 championship reflects this pattern.
Interestingly, a recent dpa survey of Bundesliga coaches reveals that all 18 coaches believe that Bayern will retain their title in the new season[2]. Despite predictions of a closer race, both Heidenheim and Freiburg coaches still tip Bayern to win the title[3].
Despite Horst Steffen, the new Werder coach, stating that FC Bayern Munich has the best team[4], and several coaches having tipped Bayer Leverkusen for a title defense in the previous season[5], it seems that the other teams cannot close the gap to Bayern. Even Freiburg coach Julian Schuster predicts that the gap will become smaller in the new season, but Bayern will still be at the top[6].
It's worth noting that Bayer Leverkusen won the German championship in 2024, but they were unable to maintain their form in the 2021-2022 season, finishing behind Bayern[7].
In conclusion, FC Bayern Munich's dominance in German football continues, as they are expected to retain their Bundesliga title in the new season. The German championship, the highest football league in Germany, promises to be an exciting spectacle once again.
