Here are Bild and Kicker Magazine’s Bundesliga Team of the Week for MD1 of the 2024/25 season. Only three teams won away from home in this round- Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich (both by 3:2 margins) and Heidenheim, who prevailed 2:0 at St Pauli.

Bild Team of the Week (MD1 for 24-25)

Baumann, Drexler, Tah, Kubler, Wirtz, Benes, Stoger, Weiser, Gittens, Kramaric, Majer

Kicker Magazine Team of the Week (Round 1)

Grabara, Agu, Sule, Mainka, Kubler, Schoppner, Wirtz, Kramaric, Majer, Kane, Gittens

Some similarities between the two teams- both have Kubler, Wirtz, Majer, Kramaric and Gittens (5 common players out of the XI selected). The defences are very different, as can be seen above.
