The Bundesliga season is heating up as we head into the final stretch, and Saturday evening's Topspiel at the Volkswagen Arena promises plenty of drama. VfL Wolfsburg, currently sitting 16th with a record of 6 wins, 8 draws, and 18 losses, are hosting their last home match of the 2025/26 campaign. But standing in their way? None other than the newly crowned champions, FC Bayern München, who have already secured their 35th German title with a commanding 13-point lead over second-place Borussia Dortmund.
For Bayern, this match is a chance to celebrate their dominance—they boast an incredible 26 wins, 5 draws, and just 1 loss so far. But for Wolfsburg, the stakes couldn't be higher. They're currently in the relegation playoff spot, third from the bottom, and every point matters. A win here wouldn't guarantee survival, but it would make things much tougher for 17th-place FC St. Pauli, who would need to beat Wolfsburg by three or more goals next Saturday to leapfrog them—depending on the margin of tonight's result.
All eyes will be on the confirmed lineups as kickoff approaches at 18:30 CET. Wolfsburg will line up in a 3-5-2 formation, with Grabara in goal, protected by a back three of Koulierakis, Vavro, and Belocian. In midfield, Mæhle, Eriksen, Souza, Wimmer, and Kumbedi will look to control the tempo, while Pejčinović and Daghim lead the attack.
Bayern, meanwhile, will stick with their trusted 4-2-3-1 setup. Neuer starts between the posts, with Davies, Itō, Kim, and Stanišić forming the backline. The midfield duo of Goretzka and Kimmich will anchor the play, while Musiala, Kane, and Olise provide creativity and firepower behind lone striker Jackson.
Whether you're cheering for the underdogs or the champions, this is a match that could define the final chapter of the Bundesliga season. Gear up for the action and show your support with the latest kits and fan apparel—because every match counts.
