The 1987–88 Bundesliga was the 25th season of the Bundesliga, the premier football league in West Germany. It began on 31 July 1987 and ended on 21 May 1988.FC Bayern Munich were the defending champions.
Every team played two games against each other team, one at home and one away. Teams received two points for a win and one point for a draw. If two or more teams were tied on points, places were determined by goal difference and, if still tied, by goals scored. The team with the most points were crowned champions while the two teams with the least points were relegated to 2. Bundesliga. The third-to-last team had to compete in a two-legged relegation/promotion play-off against the third-placed team from 2. Bundesliga.
Fortuna Düsseldorf and SpVgg Blau-Weiß 1890 Berlin were directly relegated to the 2. Bundesliga after finishing in the last two places. They were replaced by Hannover 96 and Karlsruher SC. Relegation/promotion play-off participant FC Homburg won on aggregate against FC St. Pauli and thus retained their Bundesliga status.
