FC Bayern Women head to the Red Bull Arena to face RB Leipzig on Sunday, kick-off 2pm CEST. Bayern retained the Supercup with a 4-2 win over Wolfsburg and opened the Bundesliga season with a 2-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen in front of 57,762 spectators, giving José Barcala a perfect start. Leipzig scored in seven pre-season friendlies, won four and drew two, and began the campaign with a 2-0 win at Köln after finishing eighth last season. Bayern have a perfect Bundesliga record against Leipzig. Bayern remain without Barbara Dunst, captain Glódis Viggósdóttir and Giulia Gwinn; Eriksson misses out with a slight knee issue.
"After retaining the Supercup with a 4-2 win over Wolfsburg, Bayern also kicked off their Bundesliga title defence in victorious fashion by beating Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 in front of a crowd of 57,762 at the Allianz Arena. It's been a perfect start in charge for José Barcala, who will want to maintain that record as the Munich Frauen once again play on the big stage in Leipzig. 📽️ Highlights of the Leverkusen win:"
"Bayern won both meetings with Leipzig last season. The game in Munich ended in a comfortable 6-2 win, but it took an early header from Magdalena Eriksson to get the better of the hosts in Leipzig. FCB so far boast a perfect record against Die Roten Bullen in the Bundesliga, winning all four by an aggregate score of 15-2. There's no team Bayern have scored more goals against in the league over the last two seasons."
