Bayern Munich won the 2024/25 Bundesliga season, reclaiming its position as the top football club in Germany. However, Bayern Munich didn't win the 2024/25 DFB Pokal, as they were eliminated in the Round of 16 by Bayer Leverkusen.

The 2024/25 DFB Pokal winner was VfB Stuttgart, claiming their fourth title after defeating Arminia Bielefeld in the final in May 2025.

As the 2025/26 season approaches, German football odds favour Bayern Munich to win the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal, with Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund likely to offer the most competition.

These top three leagues in Germany are connected, as teams can move between them. Every season, the best teams in the lower leagues (2. Bundesliga and 3. Liga) are promoted to the league above them. Also, teams with the worst performances get relegated to a lower league.

German football bets include the winners of each of these leagues and the teams to be promoted or relegated.

German DFB Pokal

The DFB Pokal is germany's top cup and Germany's second biggest competition overall, after the Bundesliga. The DFB Pokal is a pathway to European competitions, as the winner of the cup automatically qualifies for the Europa League.

The Super Cup is a one-match cup competition, played as a final between the winners of the Bundesliga and the DFB Pokal.
