2025/26 is the 63rd Bundesliga season, with the 62nd having seen Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich reassert their dominance in the top flight, following Leverkusen’s record-breaking previous season.
Most football fans were surprised to see Bayern Munich approach Burnley for Kompany's services, but the Belgian excelled in his first season in Bavaria, returning the club to its rightful place at the top of the pile.
The big-money arrival of Luis Diaz from Liverpool has further spiced up the Bayern attack as they play for their 35th title. Can anyone stop the Bavarian giants?
Explore your Bundesliga betting options and back Bayern and other top German clubs throughout the 2025/26 campaign at Betano Sportsbook.
There are multiple ways you can wager on the Bundesliga here at Betano, with outright, pre-match, and live wagers all offered:
In the outright betting market, you pick the winner of the upcoming Bundesliga.
We also offer Bundesliga top four markets, so you can back the teams you think will qualify for European football at the end of the 2025/26 season. If individual player markets take your fancy, back the player you think will end the season as the top scorer. Will England captain Harry Kane continue his fine goalscoring form in Bavaria to secure another Bundesliga golden boot award this season?
We’ll offer betting markets across all of the Bundesliga’s 306 matches. These include competitive match winner odds, handicaps and the over/under on the total number of goals that will be scored over 90 minutes. You can also bet on both teams to score (or not), which is an even money market that improves your chances of winning. You can also combine various match betting markets in single wagers, unlocking significantly enhanced odds.
At Betano, we offer individual manager betting markets, too. Our selection of manager odds includes the next head coach to be sacked, while you can also pick the next permanent manager of a specific club.
Before and during the 2024/25 season, managerial changes occurred at Bayern Munich, SC Freiburg, VfL Bochum, Borussia Dortmund, FC St Pauli, TSG Hoffenheim, Union Berlin, RB Leipzig, and VfL Wolfsburg.
So, if a big club gets off to a rocky start, the Bundesliga managerial merry-go-round may well be in full swing in the 2025/26 campaign.
Betano is the home of in-play betting. This lets you bet on any Bundesliga fixture after the referee’s first whistle. You can bet on the match winner, both teams to score, how many goals you think will be scored in either half, and many others.
You can download the Betano app to bet in-play on your mobile phone or tablet, giving you instant access to great-value odds and various live betting options and markets.
Not only have Bayern Munich won the most Bundesliga titles outright (34), but they’ve also triumphed in nine of the previous 10 seasons.
As we’ve touched on, Leverkusen ended the Bavarians’ run of 11 consecutive titles in 2023/24, and this was the first time they’ve topped the table at the end of a campaign. Since 2014/15, Borussia Dortmund have had the unfortunate distinction of finishing as runners-up five times. However, they last won the title under Jurgen Klopp in 2011/12.
Here’s a run-through of the most successful Bundesliga teams of all time, with the number of titles won by Germany’s most decorated clubs:
Team | Winners | Runners-up |
Bayern Munich | 34 | 10 |
1 FC Nürnberg | 9 | 3 |
Borussia Dortmund | 8 | 11 |
Schalke 04 | 7 | 10 |
Hamburger SV | 6 | 8 |
VfB Stuttgart | 5 | 5 |
Borussia Mönchengladbach | 5 | 2 |
Bayern’s dominance of the Bundesliga is matched only by PSG’s dominance of the French top flight in European football. While a challenger occasionally lays a glove on the Bavarian heavyweights, it’s essentially Bayern’s title to lose before a ball is kicked at the start of every campaign.
Given Bayern’s incredible league dominance, you can bet on the team you think will win the title without Bayern included. This is a handy way of accessing better odds on the challengers, ultimately backing the team you think will finish second in the Bundesliga.
Betano is home to the best football odds and extensive betting markets for German football fans. Back Bayern, Leverkusen, and Dortmund throughout the campaign via outright, pre-match, and in-play wagers at our sportsbook.
Regardless of your preferred markets and individual picks, we encourage you to bet within your means. We have tools to help in this regard, including customisable deposit limits and timeouts. You can find these alongside responsible betting tips when accessing our Safer Gambling Portal.
