The 2024-2025 season will be the 62nd for the Bundesliga, Germany’s top-flight domestic soccer league. It kicks off on Friday, August 23, when defending champions Bayer Leverkusen — who went through the 2023-24 Bundesliga season without losing a single match (28 wins, 6 draws, 0 losses) and thus have the privilege of wearing a gold league patch this season — visits Borussia Mönchengladbach. Six more matches take place on Saturday, August 24, and the first matchday wraps up with VfL Wolfsburg hosting Bayern Munich and newly promoted FC St. Pauli hosting FC Heidenheim on Sunday, August 25.
NOTE: This preview includes all kit information available as of August 22, 2024. We will endeavor to update it as new kits are unveiled in the first few weeks of the season.
