Despite losing only one of their past 15 ties in the competition, the odds are stacked against Stuttgart ahead of the 2025/26 showpiece. Bayern have been sensational this season, sweeping all before them in a remarkable Bundesliga campaign and only narrowly missing out on the final of the UEFA Champions League.
They got the better of VfB in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup at the MHP Arena back in August before cruising to a 5-0 win in Stuttgart in early December, thanks to a Harry Kane treble. The Bavarians then completed a hat-trick of wins over Stuttgart this season with a 4-2 victory at the Allianz Arena, which clinched the Bundesliga title with four rounds of fixtures left to play.
