Life in the Bundesliga gets underway for Vincent Kompany this weekend, as he takes his Bayern Munich side to Wolfsburg. Only a victory will be acceptable for the Bavarian giants, as they look to make a bold start to their bid to regain the Bundesliga crown.

Before Betting On Wolfsburg vs Bayern Munich

Huge questions were asked of Bayern Munich when they announced their decision to appoint Vincent Kompany as their new head coach. Last season was a campaign to forget for Bayern, as their ten-year grip on the Bundesliga title was ended. Big money has been spent by the German giants this summer, with Michael Olise and Joao Palhinha brought in from Crystal Palace and Fulham, respectively.

There will also be pressure on Wolfsburg on the opening day of the season, as they succumbed to a finish in 12th last term. They struggled towards the end of the season after losing seven of their last ten league matches. But, Ralph Hassenhuttl has spent over $50 million this summer to turn the tide back in their favor.

Bayern Munich have scored at least once in each of their last 32 Bundesliga matches against Wolfsburg, with 90 goals being scored across that period. The Bavarian giants also have an excellent record on the opening day of the season, avoiding defeat in each of their last 12 matches.

However, Wolfsburg have also been quick starters in the Bundesliga across recent history after avoiding defeat in each of the last six seasons. Therefore, only Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are currently on longer unbeaten sequences on matchday one in the competition.

Bayern must make a quick start to the new season to avoid putting pressure on Kompany in the early weeks of the season. We fully expect them to start with a dominant win on Sunday, and they could secure victory by at least a two-goal margin.
