Whip out your calendars, please! FC Bayern Women’s schedule for their Bundesliga title defence is confirmed. On Friday morning, the German Football Association (DFB) published the date ranges and match-ups for the 26 matchdays in the Google Pixel Women’s Bundesliga.
A week after the Supercup clash against VfL Wolfsburg in Karlsruhe on 30 August, the Munich girls will open the new Bundesliga campaign at the Allianz Arena (tickets). The German champions’ opening match against Bayer 04 Leverkusen, which is also the first home game for new head coach José Barcala, on Saturday 6 September (17:45 CEST) was already confirmed.
Leipzig away then three straight home games
FCB Women will then visit RB Leipzig on Matchday 2 (12-15 September), before facing three consecutive league games on home soil. The double winners will have the support of their fans against FC Carl Zeiss Jena (19-22 September), SC Freiburg (23-25 September) and SV Werder Bremen (3-6 October).
Arch-rivals Wolfsburg are the opponents again on Matchday 6, with the first league meeting between the two taking place in Lower Saxony between 10 and 13 October. The Bavaria derby against promoted side Nürnberg will be held on Matchday 9 (4-6 November), while the away match against last season’s third-placed team, Eintracht Frankfurt, is scheduled between 5 and 8 December. FCB Women’s final Bundesliga outing of the year is the reverse fixture at Leverkusen on 19 to 22 December. Barcala’s side will then begin 2026 at home to RB Leipzig (23-26 January 2026).
Season finale in Hamburg
Following the final home game against Frankfurt on Matchday 25 (8-11 May), Bayern will end the season away to Hamburger SV on Sunday 17 May. As ever, all the fixtures on the final day will kick off at the same time. The exact dates and kick-off times of the other matchdays will be confirmed over the course of the season and are largely determined by the fixtures in the European competitions.
