"Following the victory in the Champions League thriller at defending champions Paris Saint-Germain (2-1), Vincent Kompany's team have now not dropped a point in 16 competitive matches - in the Bundesliga, they currently have nine wins from nine matchdays. Should they also manage a tenth win in Berlin, they would break a league start record dating back to the days of coach Pep Guardiola."
""I'm not interested in records," said head coach Vincent Kompany, "I'd rather win a final than break a record." And yet, of course, nothing else matters to FCB but success at the Alte Försterei, "if only because we couldn't win last year. The lads know that, so I don't have to tell them much about how difficult it will be at Union.""
FC Bayern travel to Union Berlin, a team with a strong home record at the Alte Försterei and a 1-1 draw with Bayern last season. Bayern remain unbeaten in 16 competitive matches after a 2-1 Champions League win at Paris Saint-Germain and have nine wins from nine Bundesliga matchdays. A tenth win in Berlin would break a long-standing league start record from the Pep Guardiola era. Head coach Vincent Kompany emphasizes mental readiness rather than records. Kompany describes Union as compact, strong in tackles and running, experienced, good at defending crosses, and immediately pressuring the ball.
