The start of the 2024/25 Bundesliga season is fast approaching, with champions Bayer Leverkusen traveling to Borussia-Park to take on local rivals Borussia Mönchengladbach in the season opener on Friday, August 23.
Leverkusen already play their first competitive game of the season on Saturday, when they take on last season's Bundesliga runners-up VfB Stuttgart in the DFB-Supercup, a game that will likely give an indication of how the two teams will line up for the start of the Bundesliga season.
The rest of the Bundesliga teams have DFB-Pokal first round games to deal with this weekend, and how they line up there is usually a good indicator of how they will play on Matchday 1 the following week.
Below is an early look at how all 18 teams could line up for Matchday 1 of the 2024/25 Bundesliga season.
The lineups will be updated regularly until the start of the new season and are intended to be a useful resource for Fantasy Bundesliga managers tinkering with their teams.
