Matchday three of the 2026-27 Bundesliga season will take us to the Waldstadion an der Kaiserlinde, where SV Elversberg and FC Bayern Munich will lock horns in an intense clash. After winning both of their opening two games, SV Elversberg have clinched six points and find themselves in fourth spot in the points table.

The Black and White started their season with a 3-1 win against MSV Duisburg in the first round of the DFB-Pokal and followed up on that impressive display with back-to-back victories against the likes of Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Mönchengladbach.

The French striker has been on a dream run in the opening games, as he has scored in both of his last two games against the likes of Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Mönchengladbach. He holds up the opposition defenders quite well and allows his teammates to come into the game. He is a lethal finisher as well and will play a key role against Bayern Munich.  

Harry Kane (Bayern Munich)
