Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[blue Snow]

Bayern leverkusen team did really well yesterday in their game against wolfsburg it was a tricky one even if the home team is in a bad shape this season they were close to score on the first half but leverkusen team managed to keep their goal clean and to get the three points by scoring two goals at the end of the game thanks to paulinho after 10 minutes from joining the game he was the man of the match and thanks to him leverkusen secured the third position.

It was an important victory for Leverkusen. They need the points to defend their third place. Leipzig is currently right behind them. But Hoffenheim at 6th place, 4 points behind Leverkusen  still has a chance to qualify for the Champions League.

Wolfsburg has now been at 12th place since matchday 7. Funny.

Leverkusen must be standing it. The position is still very unstable from Freiburg, Hoffenheim, and Koln. when I look at statistics, Leverkusen isn't much better than others with 2 losses in the last 5 matches. this means another club could be in that position if Leverkusen wasn't watching the step. They don't have another match except for Bundesliga, they also were lost versus Atalanta in the Europa League which means they focus on Bundesliga only.

I just don't understand how Dortmund can be this much inconsistent even in a crucial situation like this. They were four points behind Bayern Munich. And for the first time ever, they have got close to the leader this much seriously. But they just wasted this chance in a very generous way against Koln. It was a poor performance by Dortmund and the game resulted in a 1-1 draw too. I wish Haaland started playing more effective as well. But he is not the player to blame here of course. The team as a whole were bad in this one.

Before this match Dortmund actually already showing poor performance and wasting several opportunity to get 3 points from important matches and failed to cut their gap points with Bayern on standings league and one of the caused why Dortmund playing poor is because of injured storm for several key players which makes they performance not stable and it was happens since February that from 10 matches Dortmund only can able to win 5 times and besides that admit it or not Dortmund really depends on Haaland and if Haaland not playing Dortmund always be hard to makes scores

there are still 7 matches to be played. If Leverkusen wants to be in the Champions League, I think their game must be consistent and keep getting points.
some games like against Leipzig and Freiburg might be difficult. but if Leverkusen overcomes these two teams I think the opportunity for next season's Champions League will be in his hands.

It was another mistake by Dortmund in their Koln game last week. They really don't seem like they want this championship. And they won't get it surely as long as they go on like this. Bayern Munich are having a bad time in the league for the first time and Dortmund captured a serious chance in the meantime. But they are so incapable of making their form better and consistent. And this prevents them from playing bigger for the Bundesliga title still. I think Bayern Munich will definitely win the title after seeing this result.

Dortmund has got so many chances of overtaking Bayern Munich but they took it for granted and missed the opportunity. It is so clear that for a couple of weeks Bayern has not been good and consistent in the bundesliga. It was a good opportunity for Dortmund to strike but they failed to do it for a couple of times and still doing same till now. Since they could not do it till now, I am not sure they could do it again because the only thing that would have further distracted Bayern Munich is champions league and now they did not have threatening fixture in the champions league.

Leipzig and Freiburg are not only a threat to Leverkusen in the standings, Leipzig and Freiburg will be met with Leverkusen in the Bundesliga continued a match. The points distance between these 3 teams is very close, Freiburg who occupies the fifth position can still replace Leverkusen and Leipzig in the top 4 standings. Leverkusen must always be consistent in the remaining 7 match in order to secure a ticket to the Champions League, while the remaining is still being fought for by Leipzig and Freiburg.

Yeb its a little disappointed that Dortmund cant be on point when they have the chance to catch up with Bayern Munich missing points the last 2 weeks.
Bayern Munich wasnt bad at all in this games they just got no luck to score more goals and the other teams played well.
It will be for sure getting close now to can beat Munich the last weeks of the season and we must be hope for more misstakes from them.

I personally don't understand what you expect from Dortmund, because the Bundesliga is only about Bayern Munich when it comes to titles. In fact, Dortmund, as the number two team in the Bundesliga, will still never be able to take over the top position of Bayern Munich from season to season. Not only that, even many great players who came from Dortmund would eventually become Bayern Munich's star players. Dortmund has only become a team that makes star players shine more than rival teams like Bayern Munich, so it is not surprising that even though Bayern Munich this season has not looked so good, there is still no team that can threaten Bayern Munich's position at the top.

Yes, even Köln still has a chance to play internationally. Köln has 40 points and is at 7th place, Leverkusen has 48 points and is at 3rd place. 4th place is currently 5 points away. Köln played a drew against Dortmund and will play against Union Berlin in their next match. That is difficult to predict, because Union Berlin is not to be estimated in my opion. But Köln should win the game by a narrow victory.

Still have second chance for Dortmund if can stop points achieve by Bayern Munich on 31 week because have classic match between Bayern Munich vs Dortmund just unlucky with playing as away. I think is not reason for Dortmund if want to be Bundesliga champion but still need to win all match left if want get chance with the winner, have 7 match left and looks Leipzig as heavy team for Dortmund than Bayern Munich match left looks easy because face with bottom team standing position.

It's like Borussia Dortmund is trying not to be champions.  I guess Bayern would not experience such losses in another year.  Dortmund should have made good use of this opportunity.  However, they cannot do this every time.  They are still losing easy points so that this year's champion does not change.  Of course, Haaland's ineffectiveness also contributed to the loss of points.

I believe that Dortmund doesn't have that championship DNA with this roster. I mean the team itself have been champions plenty of times before, but the roster do not have too many players who lived championship before. Plus they have missed Haaland so many times this year, which resulted with a lot of problems for them. In the end this caused them to be behind, and keep on losing points all the time.

Bayern on the other hand is a team filled with championship players and they know what they need to do and they know how to take it to next gear very easily whenever they need to. You may see them lose points few times in a row and just as they need to win a game, they could play a great team and beat them 7-0 out of nowhere.

You made a good analysis of Bayern. Bayern has very experienced players. When many teams fall behind in score, morale drops. However, Bayern knows how to win the game 5-1 even if they are behind in score. Experience is something money can't buy. All of the players have this more than enough. In Dortmund this may be missing.  It's missing even in Haaland. He will become more experienced over time.

This situation makes me very doubtful that Dortmund can stop Bayern Munich from winning the championship trophy, although Bayern deteriorating condition in recent weeks by picking up minus points in the match can be used by Dortmund to continue to pressure Bayern Munich in the league, but Dortmund old illness is back again now, i.e dropping points when they have to face a team like koln who are on paper far below dortmund, koln should be an easy opponent for dortmund but they couldn't keep the win in that match, now with 7 games remaining it looks like it will be very difficult for dortmund to compete with munich in the title race and I think maybe we will see the situation of dortmund next season will also not be much different from now, especially when it is rumored that next season dortmund will losing haalaand who is an important player for dortmund now.

I agree with you that the current team of Borussia Dortmund does not really have the players that you need in order to win a big title or even the Bundesliga title. I also think that the officials of Dortmund brought themself into that position, because of the transfers that they keep on doing. Borussia Dortmund does not really feel like a big club in europe for me, usually they always buy young and very talented players from big clubs like Real, Manchester United and others. Then there are two options; those young players are showing great performances which means that they don't want to stay at Dortmudn but wnat to go back to a bigger club like Sancho and Hakimi for example in the last two years. Now they have two great young players with Haaland and Bellingham and those two will most likely leave the club too after this season.

Besides experience, Bayern players are extremely team-fixated. That's one of the qualities the club looks for in new signings. This is also the reason why Bayern would never sign players like Messi, Ronaldo, Drogba and others (if they had the chance), because they would upset the team structure. In my opinion, there is no top team in Europe, apart from FC Liverpool perhaps, where all the players line up in such a way without airs and graces and special treatment.

Dortmund does produce great players and they have been doing that for a long time now. But, it seems like eventually, the players understand that they are not going to achieve anything staying at Dortmund. Because even though the players are great, the team as a whole is not. And Bayern Munich or any other top teams from La Liga or English premier League offers the players a lot more. So, it's understandable.

Actually, the match was quite balanced and both teams had opportunities to score goals. But almost no goals were scored throughout the match. The match would have ended in a draw had there not been 2 goals in the last minutes. Paulinho became a hero in the final minutes of the game and scored two game-winning goals. It was really amazing performance and was a fun match to watch

The Dortmund pupils who become top players want big results, they are young and ambitious. And it is logical that since they cannot achieve great results with Borussia, they accept offers from stronger clubs. By the way, Borussia could compete for the championship this season, there are chances for this, but I don’t think that the championship in the Bundesliga can be a bigest dream for a player.

Dortmund have some great player who playing expensive. Dortmund played very well this season. Their team combination much more better than any team in Bundesliga. Dortmund playing very expensive this season. Even they are Point table number 2.I hope they will be closest point in Bayern Munich.

I don't think 2 draws in a row for Bayern Munchen so far will be fatal to their chances of winning the league. They only dropped a few points but 6 points ahead of Dortmund is still quite safe for a team like Bayern Munchen in my opinion. I'm sure Bayern Munich will secure the title this season after being dominant all season. Dortmund so far in second place can actually be a threat to Bayern Munchen, but nevertheless Bayern Munchen is much more to be expected.

How is Lewandowski different from the listed players? I think none of the listed players would break the system, the fact that these players are bright personalities does not prevent them from playing team football, but the fact that they "take over the game and waste scoring chances" is their job. The striker must shoot on goal even from uncomfortable positions, some of these shots are converted into goals and some will be unsuccessful. And at this moment, some fans will say - but he could have made a pass, oh, what an individualistic player he is.

Everyone scolds Borussia (and me too  ), but if you look objectively, they have quite adequate overall statistics - 66% of wins in all Bundesliga matches. If we exclude from these statistics the defeat from their direct competitor - Bayern, then the difference between these two teams will be very small.
