Bundesliga Standings 2025-2026

Bayern Munich have reasserted their dominance over the Bundesliga in 2025-2026 after the historic interruption of Bayer Leverkusen's title in 2023-2024. With 60 points from 26 matchdays (19W-3D-4L), the Bavarians hold a 4-point cushion over Leverkusen and an 11-point lead over Borussia Dortmund. Their supremacy rests on owning both the league's best attack (68 goals, an average of 2.62 per game) and meanest defence (24 conceded, 0.92 per game) — a combination no rival can match.

Harry Kane is the architect of Bayern's offensive machine. With 23 goals in 25 appearances, the England captain converts at 0.92 goals per game — the best rate among strikers across Europe's top five leagues this season. His partnership with Jamal Musiala (8 goals, 7 assists) has produced 31 combined goals, making them the most prolific duo in German football. Joshua Kimmich anchors the midfield, enabling Bayern to average 62% possession per match, and Thomas Muller continues to provide intelligent movement and chance creation off the bench.

Bayer Leverkusen under Xabi Alonso (56 pts, 2nd) remain the principal challenger, with Florian Wirtz (9 goals, 10 assists) orchestrating play and Patrik Schick (12 goals) finishing chances efficiently. Leverkusen have lost only 4 matches — the same as Bayern — but 5 draws versus Bayern's 3 account for the gap. Borussia Dortmund (49 pts, 3rd) depend heavily on Serhou Guirassy (14 goals), but the 11-point deficit to the leaders looks insurmountable with just 8 matchdays remaining.

Behind the top three, the battle for European qualification is among the tightest in years. RB Leipzig (47 pts, 4th) hold the final Champions League spot by just 2 points over VfB Stuttgart (45 pts, 5th), who occupy the Europa League place. Eintracht Frankfurt (43 pts, 6th) are chasing a Conference League berth, fuelled by Omar Marmoush's outstanding 15 goals and 9 assists — the second-best individual output in the league behind Kane.

SC Freiburg (41 pts, 7th) and VfL Wolfsburg (37 pts, 8th) remain within range of a late European push. The spread of just 10 points between 4th and 8th place means any sustained winning run from the chasing pack could reshape the European picture entirely. With 8 matchdays to play, approximately half the league still has a mathematical chance of finishing in a European spot, guaranteeing a compelling run-in across the final weeks of the season.
