Watch Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart live streams as Vincent Kompany’s league winners attempt to complete a domestic double by overcoming the cup holders in Berlin and lifting the German Cup for the 21st time.
What a season it has been for Bayern Munich. Under the guidance of Kompany, the Bavarians romped to the league title, losing only one of their 34 Bundesliga matches and scoring 122 goals in the process. However, their journey to their first DFB-Pokal final in six years was far from plain sailing as they required a 94th-minute winner just to overcome third-division side SV Wehen Wiesbaden in the first round. Having seen off Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-finals, they’ll now aim for a repeat of the 4-2 win over Stuttgart in April that sealed a 35th Bundesliga title.
After finishing fourth in the league and securing Champions League football, Stuttgart will look to cap a strong season by successfully defending the trophy. Like Bayern, Sebastian Hoeneß’s side also struggled in the opening round of the competition as they required penalties to get past Bundesliga 2 side Eintracht Braunschweig, but after beating Freiburg 2-1 in the semi-finals, now have the chance to win the Cup for the fifth time. Key to their success will be stopping Bayern’s remarkable attack and providing chances for Deniz Undav, who finished the season as the second-top scorer in the Bundesliga behind Bayern’s Harry Kane.
