Bayern Munich and VfL Wolfsburg are playing live on the Bundesliga schedule for the German League opener and the team is starting their title defense against VfL from Allianz Arena at 2:30 pm Et and 6:30 pm local time and the match is streaming online from BT Sport and Gol TV as the German champions try and get things going and it comes after they totally dominated the league last season.
Bayern has been one of the best teams in the world and they come into the season as Bundesliga champions after winning the title last year. The team was very dominant and now teams like Borussia Dortmund and Schalke will try and knock them off, but so far no one has been able to get close enough to do that. Last season Bayern was way ahead very early on and now they are looking to start the season on a positive note and it comes after the team had a number of players win the World Cup with Germany in Brazil. This is a great way to start the season and it has two very solid teams meeting each other.
Bayern is favored, but they know that the Wolves are a tough team and they come in after putting together a good season last year. Thomas Muller and Robert Lewandowski are two of the most important players for Bayern and they should be in on the action, while Arjen Robben is expected to miss the opening of the season. Muller was fantastic in the World Cup and he is looking to have a big season this year after Toni Kroos left.
Lewandowski has the chance to be a star and he could be very good for Bayern, as he is a player that can make plays on his own and he can create chances in front of the net. Bayern lost in the Super Cup 2-0 against Dortmund, but that has not been looked at in a bad light from Pep Guardiola, as he gave his team praised for the way they performed despite losing. Guardiola did not play his full lineup there and that was one reason why the team ended up losing.
Robben comes in after playing well in the World Cup for the Netherlands and he is looking to get back in action as soon as he can for Bayern. Robben did not play for the Bavarians in the Super Cup match and that was a wise move, as he was not ready to get back in action and now he is hoping to get fit ahead of the next game along with Franck Ribery and Javi Martinez. Wolfsburg feels that they can take advantage in this match since the team is missing some players, but Bayern is still very tough and they even have Julian Green in there as well after his World Cup heroics for the US.
