Schalke 04 comes into the match after a tough 3-0 defeat against Augsburg on August 30, 2026, in a game where goals from Michael Gregoritsch, Anton Kade, and Rodrigo Ribeiro made the difference.

As the Bundesliga progresses, Schalke will look to turn around their poor streak against a Bayern Munich team that remains at the top of the table, promising a match full of emotions and tension.
