As the 24/25 Bundesliga season kicks off, teams are already jockeying for position. With Gameweek 2 in the books, let's take a closer look at how the Bundesliga table stands and which teams are making early statements.
Top of the Table
After two gameweeks, FC Heidenheim leads the Bundesliga table with a perfect record. They have won both of their matches, scoring 6 goals and conceding none, giving them a goal difference of +6 and a total of 6 points.
Close behind are FC Bayern München and RB Leipzig, both of whom have also won their first two games. Bayern has scored 5 goals and conceded 2, resulting in a +3 goal difference.
Leipzig, similarly, has a +2 goal difference, having scored 4 goals and conceded 2. These three teams are setting a fast pace at the top, showcasing strong early-season form.
The Chasing Pack
Behind the leaders, several teams are also off to solid starts. Borussia Dortmund and FC Union Berlin both have 4 points after securing a win and a draw in their opening two matches.
Dortmund has a goal difference of +2, while Union Berlin sits just behind with a +1 difference. Other teams like Borussia Mönchengladbach and VfL Wolfsburg are close, each with 3 points after a win and a loss. Their goal differences of +1 and -1 respectively indicate tight contests in their matches.
Mid-Table Contenders
The mid-table sees a mix of teams that have shown flashes of potential but also areas needing improvement.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen, Eintracht Frankfurt, and SC Freiburg all have 3 points, each having one win and one loss. Leverkusen's goal difference of 0 suggests balanced performances, while Frankfurt and Freiburg have both conceded and scored three goals, reflecting their inconsistent starts.
Struggles at the Bottom
At the bottom of the table, Holstein Kiel, VfL Bochum 1848, and FC St. Pauli are yet to secure a point.
Each team has lost their opening two matches and has a goal difference of -3, indicating defensive issues that need immediate attention.
These teams will be looking to turn things around quickly to avoid a relegation battle later in the season.
