The Bundesliga delivered plenty of action over the weekend, with four or more goals scored in 55% of fixtures across the league. We are just four games into the 2024/25 Bundesliga season, and the unbeaten teams have narrowed down to three?Bayern Munich, RB Leipzig, and Union Berlin?while just Bayern Munich maintain a perfect record. The top of the Bundesliga table is starting to take a familiar shape, with Bayern in first place and reigning champions Bayer Leverkusen three points behind them in second.

That certainly wasn?t the case over the weekend, with plenty of drama and a whopping 35 goals scored across all games (an average of ~4 goals a game).
