FC Bayern have won 69 of their 110 Bundesliga games against VfB Stuttgart (D22, L19) – no other side in league history has recorded as many wins against a single opponent. The last meeting ended in a 3-1 home win for Stuttgart in May, with the Swabians last recording consecutive victories against FCB in 2007 (2).

FC Bayern München have taken 14 points from their first six Bundesliga games of the season, just like in 2023/24. They haven't won any of their last three competitive games (D2, L1), last enduring a longer wait across all competitions in April 2023 (4).
3
VfB Stuttgart have won just two of their first six Bundesliga games this season (D3, L1), having recorded more than twice as many wins at this same stage last term (W5). After drawing both their last two matches, the Swabians could now remain winless in three straight Bundesliga games for the first time under Sebastian Hoeneß.
4
FC Bayern have conceded seven goals across their first six Bundesliga games in 2024/25 – over the last 15 top-flight campaigns, they have only also let in as many at this stage in 2020/21 (9 under Hansi Flick). FCB's opponents have converted 25% of their chances against them in the league this season, with only FC Augsburg's opponents better off (28%).
5
VfB Stuttgart have scored in each of their last 22 Bundesliga games – the longest ongoing scoring run in the division. VfB have only put together a longer streak in the Bundesliga from 1984 to 1985 under Helmut Benthaus (27 games). However, one of the three games that VfB have failed to score in under Sebastian Hoeneß came at FC Bayern in December 2023 (3-0).
