Vincent Kompany says Bayern Munich are relishing the prospect of facing champions Bayer Leverkusen as they look to re-assert themselves as top dogs in the Bundesliga.

Bayern have won all six of their matches in all competitions under Kompany, scoring 20 goals in their last three games, and sit top of the Bundesliga with a 100% record.

On Saturday, they host second-placed Leverkusen, who last season became the first team to finish a Bundesliga campaign unbeaten and lifted the trophy to end Bayern’s run of 11 straight titles.

“It’s good that everyone’s excited about the game,” Kompany told reporters.

“Obviously, it’ll be an important game, against the best team from the last 12 months. We’re looking forward to the game. It won’t be easy.

“We want to test ourselves against a good opponent at the Allianz Arena. Bayern are always the favourites. We’re looking forward to playing against the champions and want to win.
