Xabi Alonso’s men have the opportunity to reconstitute the leading duo with the Munich on Sunday followingnoon (3:30 p.m.) on their lawn once morest Heidenheim, promoted and new to the Bundesliga.
On Saturday followingnoon, Harry Kane already broke a personal record with the team which remains on 11 German championship titles, only six weeks following his arrival in Bavaria.
By scoring his fifth, sixth and seventh goals in his first five Bundesliga matches under the colors of Bayern, Kane erased Gerd Müller (1965), Miroslav Klose (2007) and Mario Mandzukic (2012), a prestigious trio who until now held the club record following five matches.
Kane must, however, leave the lead in the scorers’ table for the moment to Guinean international Serhou Guirassy, who is a hit with 10 goals in five matches, equaling Robert Lewandowski’s historic Bundesliga record (2020/21).
Three days following dominating Manchester United 4 to 3 for the spectacular first match in the Champions League this season, Munich coach Thomas Tuchel decided on Saturday to rotate his squad, leaving Dayot Upamecano, Leon Goretzka, Serge Gnabry, and Thomas Müller on the bench.

The power of the Munich offensive steamroller completely shattered the opposing defense with four goals in the first period, by Choupo-Moting (4th), Kane (12th), Matthijs De Ligt (29th) and Leroy Sané (38th).
Returning from the locker room, Choupo-Moting caused a penalty converted by Kane (54th), to increase the score.
And what would a Bayern match be without a performance from its luxury joker of the moment Mathys Tel? The 18-year-old Frenchman scored his third goal in the Bundesliga this season in the 81st minute, a quarter of an hour following coming on and three days following the first goal of his career in the Champions League.
Kane scored his first Munich hat-trick just before added time.
After a 32nd final of the German Cup on the lawn of Münster (3rd division) Tuesday evening (8:45 p.m.), Bayern will pass a new major test next Saturday (6:30 p.m.) in Leipzig, for a revenge of the Super Cup won at the beginning of August by RB Leipzig.
Marco Rose’s players, winners on Tuesday on the pitch of the Young Boys of Bern (3-1), had to work much harder on Saturday to overcome Borussia Mönchengladbach (1-0), with a goal from Timo Werner to the 75th minute.
With this fourth consecutive victory, Leipzig comes back level with Stuttgart with 12 points. Hoffenheim completes the trio with 12 points, following their victory at Union Berlin (2-0).
