The newly crowned German champions, Bayern Munich, square off against the defending DFB Cup holders, Stuttgart, in a match that pits the league’s most dominant side against its most resilient Cup fighter. Indeed, Bayern are chasing a first domestic league double since 2020, while Stuttgart is aiming to become the first back-to-back DFB Pokal winners in a decade.

It is worth noting that Stuttgart had the second-best attack in the league,having scored 71 goals from their 34 matches, which means fans could be treated to a goal fest to end the season. With that said, Stuttgart, similar to their opponents, have also had an excellent season, having secured a top four league finish to secure European football next season – now they will be aiming to pull off one of the most unlikely upset in history by beating Bayern Munich, to defend the title they won last year.
