Even before the start of the new season, Bundesliga club RB Leipzig has a highlight in store. The Red Bulls will face the record champions one week before the start of the season.

Two weeks before the start of the 64th Bundesliga season, RB Leipzig will face its first top-class test of strength. On August 15, the team of RB coach Ole Werner will play FC Bayern Munich for the Telekom Cup (3:30 pm), as the club announced. The first main round of the DFB Cup is scheduled for a week later, followed by the national premier class on August 28.

Leipzig had already completed test matches against third-division clubs FC Ingolstadt on July 25 (2:00 p.m.) and SC Verl on August 1 (12:00 p.m.). From East Westphalia, the team will then travel to Saalfelden in Austria for a training camp until August 7.
