FC Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction 18 October 2025

Bayern have been unstoppable so far, collecting the maximum 18 points with a staggering 25–3 goal difference. Their 3–2 victory over Augsburg was the only real test, but they quickly reasserted dominance by thrashing Hamburg (5–0), Hoffenheim (4–1), Werder Bremen (4–0), and Eintracht Frankfurt (3–0).

Borussia Dortmund enter the match in solid form as well. Before the international break, they drew 1–1 with RB Leipzig, following a series of confident wins over Union Berlin (3–0), Heidenheim (2–0), Wolfsburg (1–0), and Mainz (2–0). The Bumblebees sit second in the standings with 14 points and a 12–4 goal record — a start they’ll be quite happy with.

Last season, both encounters between these sides ended in draws — a rarity in a rivalry usually dominated by Bayern, especially in Munich. Given the current form and momentum, the defending champions look well-positioned to extend their winning streak and remind Dortmund who rules the Bundesliga.
