The Bundesliga is widely regarded as one of the world's top leagues, known for its thrilling drama. UK fans will recognize many familiar faces if they tune into Germany's top tier of men's football.

After Harry Kane's headline-making move to Bayern Munich last season, where he netted an impressive 36 goals, his former Tottenham teammate Eric Dier has now permanently joined the club, following a loan spell earlier this year.

With Thomas Tuchel's departure as manager, Bayern will be led into the new season by Vincent Kompany, the former Manchester City defender, aiming to reclaim the Bundesliga crown after Bayern finished third last season.

The reigning champions, Bayer Leverkusen, are managed by Xabi Alonso, a former Liverpool player from the mid-2000s. Xabi and his team clinched Bayer Leverkusen's first Bundesliga title in style last season, ending 17 points clear of their closest challengers, VfB Stuttgart.

On the other hand, the newly promoted sides, FC St Pauli and Holstein Kiel will aim for a strong finish in this season's standings.

So whether you're looking for the next big Bayern Munich game or others including other big European teams like Borussia Dortmund or RB Leipzig, we'll equip you with everything you need to know to watch Bundesliga live across the season.
