As expected, Bayern Munich will have one final opportunity to fine-tune their preparations before the 2026/27 season officially begins per a release from FCBayern.com.

The club has confirmed that Vincent Kompany’s side will travel to face Heidenheim on August 18th in their final preseason friendly, with kickoff scheduled for 12:00PM EDT (18:00 CEST). The match will be streamed live on FC Bayern TV Plus, giving supporters one last chance to see the squad in action before competitive football returns.

While preseason results are never the main priority, this fixture could provide valuable insight into Kompany’s preferred starting XI, tactical setup, and which players have done enough to earn a place in the team heading into the new campaign. It is also likely to be the final opportunity for several youngsters and fringe players to make one last impression before the season gets underway.

There will not be much time to reflect after the final whistle. Just four days later, Bayern Munich will face Borussia Dortmund in the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup, where the club will have its first chance to lift silverware this season.

With preparations entering their final stage, all eyes will now be on Heidenheim as Bayern Munich look to build momentum before the first trophy of the 2026/27 campaign is on the line.
