German media poll: All Bundesliga coaches agree that Bayern will defend the Bundesliga championship

Hupu August 20th. Before the start of the Bundesliga season, the coaches of 18 clubs agreed that in their opinion, Bundesliga champion Bayern Munich will defend the title in the new season.

"They have the best team," said Werder Bremen's new coach Horst Steffen. In a poll by Deutsche News Agency, all 18 Bundesliga coaches predicted Bayern Munich would win the league title this season.

After Leverkusen unexpectedly won the German championship in 2024, several Bundesliga coaches once believed Leverkusen could defend his title last season. However, this time, in the DST investigation, no other team except Bayern Munich was voted to be a champion candidate.

"The points gap was already very big last year. That's why I don't think other teams can close the gap with Bayern Munich club," said Heidenheim head coach Frank Schmidt.

At the end of last season, Bayern Munich finally defeated defending champion Leverkusen with 13 points, winning the Bundesliga again after a year. “I think everything is getting closer again,” Freiburg coach Julian Schuster said. "But in the end, Bayern Munich will once again top the championship position."
