This Saturday, Bayern Munich is set to continue its impressive unbeaten streak in the Bundesliga as they take on Union Berlin at the Allianz Arena. Kickoff for this highly anticipated match is scheduled for November 2 at 15:30 CET (10:30 ET, 7:30 PT). Fans in the UK can tune in at 14:30 GMT, while viewers in Australia will need to rise early to catch the action at 1:30 AEDT on Sunday.
Bayern Munich enters this matchup looking to recover from a tough defeat against FC Barcelona in the Champions League. Under the guidance of coach Vincent Kompany, the team rebounded in style, delivering an emphatic 5-0 victory over VfL Bochum. Their midweek performance was equally strong, as they convincingly defeated FSV Mainz 4-0 in the DFB-Pokal. With such momentum, expectations are high for another dominating performance.
However, Bayern faces a formidable opponent in Union Berlin. Currently sitting fourth in the league standings with four wins, three draws, and only one loss, Union Berlin is eager to bounce back after a surprising 2-0 defeat to Arminia Bielefeld in the DFB-Pokal. Managed by Bo Svensson, Union Berlin has built a reputation for strong defensive play, which could prove challenging for Bayern’s attacking prowess.

It’s important to note that using a VPN is legal in countries like the U.S., UK, and Canada, provided that users have a valid subscription to the streaming service. Proper VPN configuration is crucial to avoid leaks, as some streaming platforms may suspend accounts for attempting to bypass broadcast restrictions.
