Bayern sit top of 🎉the Bundesliga on 14 points, ahead of RB Leipzig on go🧸al difference, and are looking to get back to winning ways against in-form Stuttgart on Saturday.

Kompany's team, however, have been far from convincing in recent weeks, having lost to Aston Villa in the Champions League and drawn ౠwith Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga.

They will need to quickly turn things around against Stuttgart with a busy match schedule ahead, including a tr𒈔ip to Barcelona next week in the Champions League.

"We know we have to do things better, ♉but we have 100% faith that our way will be successful. Hopefully, we will take the next step in the next game," Kompany told a press conference.

The Bavarians were largely dominant againಌst Villa and Eintracht but lost 1-0 in England and drew 3-3 in Frankfurt﷽ after conceding a stoppage-time equaliser.

"I come from Bel♓gium, so we are very pragmati﷽c, much like the Germans," Kompany added. "It is not only the belief but also what the analyses showed.

"We werܫe dominant in those games [against Villa and Eintracht]. We had many, many more ♕chances than our opponents.

"Of course, we have to be better, to optimise, but I believe ✤if we are objective it would be stupid to change everything just because the results were not right.

"We will keep fighting to win games, but﷽ we are convinced we will win many games in the future."

Bayern will be without Jamal Musi🍎ala, who is recovering from injury, on Saturday while defender Dayot Upamecano is a doubt.

Stuttgart provided six players to t☂he German national team for this month's international matches, twice as man🌟y as Bayern. Last season's surprise runners-up are eighth on nine points in the current campaign.

"Stuttgart have show🐭n what they want to do," Kompany sa🗹id.

"They want to play their game and that's what made them successful. That's why they were second l✅ast season.

"It shows they have worked really well."
