The Bundesliga is back! After the sports world went on ice for two months due to the coronavirus pandemic, the world is starting to get back to action in the sporting sense. The K-League kicked things off last week in South Korea, but you can’t legally watch the games in the United States. The Bundesliga? Readily available to watch stateside!
The 18-team German top flight is 24 or 25 games into the 2019-20 season, depending on the club, and surprise, Bayern Munich sits atop the league standings. But Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig and Borussia Monchengladbach are on the heels of the defending champ and looking to end their long, long reign.
While most of the games are Saturday at 6:30 am PT, that includes the best game of the weekend, the Revierderby between Dortmund and Schalke, both teams featuring young American players, too.
