The German Cup quarterfinal between Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig, scheduled for Wednesday, February 11, 2026, at the Allianz Arena, is under threat due to a major public transport strike in Munich.
Union Verdi announced a full strike affecting buses and trams on match day, raising concerns about how tens of thousands of fans will reach the stadium. While Deutsche Bahn’s S-Bahn trains will continue to operate, they are insufficient to handle the expected crowd.
Bayern Munich officials are in talks with local authorities and Munich police, but no final decision has yet been made on whether the match will proceed as planned or be postponed.
