Form and History of the Opponents

FC Bayern enters the Champions League opener as a clear favourite. In the Bundesliga the Munich side won its last match 5:1 against VfB Stuttgart, while the subsequent match against the promoted Schalke ended in a goalless draw. These results underline the Bayern's attacking strength.

Bodø/Glimt does not travel to Munich as a simple opponent. The Norwegian vice‑champion has remained unbeaten in 18 league matches and qualified for the group stage via Union Saint‑Gilloise and NEC Nijmegen. In the previous season the club reached the round of 16, surprisingly securing a win over Inter Milan in the qualifying rounds, before being eliminated by Sporting Portugal with an aggregate score of 3‑5.

The duel on Thursday, 10 September 2026, marks the first matchday of the Champions League and offers both teams the chance to profile themselves internationally. Kick‑off is scheduled for 21:00. This gives both teams the opportunity to make an early impression.

The contrast between the favoured Munich club and the unbeaten Norwegian vice‑champion highlights that the match is not only a meeting of two teams, but a test of different playing philosophies; the coming minutes will show who takes the better preparation into the group stage. Spectators can look forward to an exciting encounter.
