Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[hahay]

This week, we will see league leaders Leverkusen take on Frankfurt. Frankfurt itself is not a club that can be underestimated, they are a club that can provide surprises that were not expected before. So Leverkusen must be very careful in this match, if they still want to be at the top of the standings.

One defeat will not threaten their first position in the Bundesliga but it will be very dangerous because they will only be 1 point behind Bayern. But I think it will be an easy win for Leverkusen. They are unbeaten this season. This means they are very strong so Frankfurt doesn't seem to be able to surprise the other teams. Leverkusen does have to be careful with some underrated teams but for me they will always get the win because I see them being too strong this season.

Although Bayer Leverkusen remains the favorite to win and also, Bayer Leverkusen still has a very impressive trend of being unbeaten so far this season. But yes, I still think it will not be easy to beat Eintracht Frankfurt because yes, basically Eintracht Frankfurt is not a weak team and also not an easy team to beat. Therefore, I believe it will still not be easy for Bayer Leverkusen to beat Eintracht Frankfurt in this match.

Indeed, Bayer Leverkusen will also play at home and of course, playing at home will make Bayer Leverkusen seem certain to win. But yes, of course Bayer Leverkusen also remains to have a great effort in this match, because to get 3 points in a situation like this is certainly not easy.

Dortmund missed too many opportunities, Augsburg as well. It was a match that proved why Dortmund has been so bad this season. They shouldn't miss this attack opportunities. Malen was okay but he could do better. The team needs Haller and he's still not ready. It's hard to win with Bynoe-Gittens and Füllkrug. Not that they are bad players but they can't use their full capacity, they only play with %60 at max. It's a shame for Dortmund, they should've been in the discussion this season while Bayern is having hard times but they just gave this chance to Leverkusen.

Dortmund will have difficulty finishing in the top four of the Bundesliga this season if they continue to draw or lose. The 1-1 draw against Augsburg that they just got is proof that they have not been able to achieve the expected consistency as usual, namely suppressing Bayern dominance. The two goals scored in this match were quite beautiful. Dortmund dominated the game, but from 24 shots and 7 of them were on target, they failed to add a goal until the final whistle sounded.

The fatigue factor due to the busy match schedule in the Champions League may be one of the causes of Dortmund declining performance. On the other hand I agree with you, if Dortmund will no longer be discussed as one of the champion candidates if they continue to lose points. This of course paves the way for the other four teams in the top four to have more freedom to occupy their positions comfortably without any interference. Bayern and Leverkusen, who currently occupy first and second place, will be very happy if Dortmund continues to stumble.

[bitgolden]

Of course a draw will not disappoint either of them, it's just that there are bettors who bet on the victory of one of these teams who will definitely be annoyed. Gladbach are favored to win because they are hosts and I think some people depend on Gladbach. On the other hand, if someone bets on the BTTS result (Yes) or the result of over 2.5 goals, they will definitely be very comfortable making money through this match.

Even so, I was quite doubtful that there could actually be 4 goals and I thought it would be a narrow win for Gladbach, but unfortunately they failed to do so. Maybe Gladbach's defense should pay attention again because they conceded at the wrong time and at the same time their attack line was starting to get tired.

This match was pretty balanced. I thought either team could actually win the match. I honestly thought Bremen Night actually be the loser in this match. But they're definitely did well to get one point. But the thing is they are still in a certain amount of danger. Because they have played one match more compared to the others around them on the table. So if the other teams are actually able to win, they might be in a certain amount of danger and close to the relegation zone. But right now they are still in a pretty decent position.

I agree, game was quite tied together and both teams played quite close to each other in talent level so there is really no reason to think that it would end any differently. I didn't bet on this game because I didn't know which one would be better or not, but that should have been a key to figuring out the result all by itself, if I didn't know which team was better and who could win, then I could have bet on the tie, and I didn't and I assumed that it would be a winner by one of the teams and I wouldn't know when in fact if I knew it would be too close then I could have bet on a tie and make more money from that. In any regards, it's over now, and I am going to wait and see how the games I actually bet on will do.

The bad -> good -> bad performances continue.
I don't understand why they can't get solid back to back games together, not even against garbage teams like Augsburg. 

They showed amazing games in the UCL the last games and then in the Bundesliga they disappoint on every way possible.
Scoring is mostly the biggest problem, not even the brain farts here and there on defence. I don't know what the problem is actually since the players can do it, they have shown it in the Champions League. Is it coaching? It must be.

Bayer Leverkusen indeed have a golden chance this season to grab the title and they should use it since Bayern Munich are missing points and Borussia Dortmund aren't well at all!
Dortmund were playing away in today's game, yet they dominated the match and they made many attempts but they scored only one goal which show how much they need good attackers to finish the wasted opportunities.
Well, Borussia Dortmund aren't failing alone apparently, even Leipzig are struggling but this time at home against Hoffenheim. The result is a one goal draw with 20 minutes left on the game.

Although Bayer Leverkusen remains the favorite to win and also, Bayer Leverkusen still has a very impressive trend of being unbeaten so far this season. But yes, I still think it will not be easy to beat Eintracht Frankfurt because yes, basically Eintracht Frankfurt is not a weak team and also not an easy team to beat. Therefore, I believe it will still not be easy for Bayer Leverkusen to beat Eintracht Frankfurt in this match.

Indeed, Bayer Leverkusen will also play at home and of course, playing at home will make Bayer Leverkusen seem certain to win. But yes, of course Bayer Leverkusen also remains to have a great effort in this match, because to get 3 points in a situation like this is certainly not easy.

This means that with your statement, do you doubt Leverkusen's performance?
But I never doubt it if we look at the history of meetings between these two clubs when they compete, both of them can always win at their respective home grounds and we can see that in every meeting when Leverkusen plays at home they can always win and vice versa when Frankfurt plays at their own home they can always win. .
Meanwhile, if we predict from the current performance of the two clubs, Leverkusen can still win, beating Frankfurt, even though this club has beaten Bayern Munich, but believe me, if Frankfurt were at home, it would be very fierce, as they have beaten Leverkusen with a big score twice and yesterday beat Bayern Munich also with big score.

I think I know that Frankfurt has a unique playing style where once they can break into their opponent's goal, they will definitely do it again with a different strategy so they can score big scores and what surprised me was that Frankfurt can always score big scores against popular clubs but when against a club that under him can't score big and this is very strange for me.
But the conclusion is that Leverkusen will still win, believe me.

I feel like Dortmund having trauma competing in Bundesliga due to their last game failure to win Bundesliga last season.
Dortmund has demonstrated their ability to compete at a high level in the UEFA Champions League that shows skillful attacking plays and solid overall performances. But It's indeed weird as they struggle to replicate this performance in domestic league games, even against supposedly weaker opponents like Augsburg.

That is a big concern for Dortmund now as they get bigger points gap with the teams above on the table. Coaching may be a contributing factor for this situation, but not that Edin Terzić is a bad coach, Dortmund need more than just tactics and strategies. Coaching plays a pivotal role in a team's performance, not only tactics and strategies, but also transfering motivation and attitude. The challenge for the coaching staff is to ensure that the team maintains a consistent level of play across different competitions with the right attitude.

Dortmund were playing away in today's game, yet they dominated the match and they made many attempts but they scored only one goal which show how much they need good attackers to finish the wasted opportunities.

It's a shame that the match between Augsburg and Dortmund ended in a draw. Even though Dortmund has played quite dominatingly. Various attacks were given from Dortmund players towards the opponent's defense. However, they actually conceded a goal first. With this failure (even though they still got 1 point), the distance between points and other clubs became even greater. This position is really risky for Dortmund because he could fail to enter the UCL next season if he continues like this.

[Doell]

Leipzig didn't get difficulty in the match against Hoffenheim tonight, as the home team Leipzig won very well with a score of 3-1. They also dominated this game, with 10 shots on target from 22 attempted shots. Now Leipzig is also one point above Stuttgart, and has the possibility they still above Stuttgart in standings. Even though the Stuttgart vs Bayern Munich match has not started yet, but I think the possibility is small for Stuttgart steal full points in the tomorrow match against Bayern Munich.

It seems that this is the impact of those who have focused on the Champions League in recent weeks which makes the Bundesliga not really run well.
In this match Dortmund did some experiments with new schemes and some players also seemed not to be played to maintain their fitness so I think 1 point in this match is quite deserved.

Although there will be a lot of people who are not satisfied with this result, especially the opponent is Augsburg, which is below them, but with the rotation made and the previous focus on the Champions League, I think 1 point is a very reasonable thing for Dortmund in this match even though with this result they are even more behind in the race for the championship position in the Bundesliga.

Frankfurt itself is not a club that can be underestimated, they are a club that can provide surprises that were not expected before. So Leverkusen must be very careful in this match, if they still want to be at the top of the standings.

One defeat will not threaten their first position in the Bundesliga but it will be very dangerous because they will only be 1 point behind Bayern. But I think it will be an easy win for Leverkusen. They are unbeaten this season. This means they are very strong so Frankfurt doesn't seem to be able to surprise the other teams. Leverkusen does have to be careful with some underrated teams but for me they will always get the win because I see them being too strong this season.

Although Bayer Leverkusen remains the favorite to win and also, Bayer Leverkusen still has a very impressive trend of being unbeaten so far this season. But yes, I still think it will not be easy to beat Eintracht Frankfurt because yes, basically Eintracht Frankfurt is not a weak team and also not an easy team to beat.

Indeed, Bayer Leverkusen will also play at home and of course, playing at home will make Bayer Leverkusen seem certain to win. But yes, of course Bayer Leverkusen also remains to have a great effort in this match, because to get 3 points in a situation like this is certainly not easy.

Eintracht Frankfurt is one of the top performers in the German Bundesliga and I don't think any team in the league including Bayer Leverkusen would want to underestimate the strength of the team because of their ability to pull of surprises especially on games they're not favoured to win or get a good result in.  That being said, Bayer Leverkusen is undoubtedly the most consistent team in the league since the start of the season and I expect them to comfortably beat Eintracht Frankfurt when the league leaders host Frankfurt tomorrow afternoon. Bayer Leverkusen knows that the strength and depth in the Bayern Munich squad is enough to fight for the top spot till the end of the season and that's why they can't afford to lose any points now if they truly want to win the German Bundesliga title at the end if the season and that's I think they're definitely gonna be playing at their best tomorrow to further extend the gap at the top of the German league standings.

Borussia Dortmund who started their German Bundesliga campaign this season on a very good note seems to have lost their tactical strength to win games and get good results like they were doing at the start of the season. Against Augsburg today, Borussia Dortmund were wasteful in front of the goal after coming from a goal down to equalize in the first half of the game. Dortmund are currently out of the top four of the league and if they don't improve their performance, I don't think they can finish the season in the top four of the league.

[QueenVera]

Frankfurt will want to get something when they visit BayArena, Laverkusen home ground. They want to beat Laverkusen like they beat Bayern Munchen the previous week, with high enthusiasm and self confidence, once again Frankfurt wants to be the killer of the big teams in the Bundesliga. On the other side, we know how Laverkusen has performed so far, untouched by defeat in all competitions, and continuing to improve his statistical numbers and trying to extend his unbeaten record. If successful, it will strengthen its position at the top of the standings and avoid being overtaken by Bayern Munchen.

In theory, Laverkusen is clearly superior, thanks to their consistency we dare to say that they will not lose in the match against Frankfurt this week. The win in Frankfurt last week was a stroke of luck, and Xabi has certainly learned how to determine his opponent luck tomorrow. Anything can happen and I don't expect Laverkusen to lose points either by drawing or losing, because I want to see how far Xabi and his fleet can suppress Bayern dominance in the Bundesliga this season.

It’s of a true that Frankfurt will be going to BayArena with full confidence especially after the victory over a big gun in the Bundesliga, but will it be possible to being down 2 big dogs at a same time, especially judging from Leverkusen’s sweet form you can tell this’ll be a hard nut for Frankfurt to crack; to score and not concede. Yes this is football and anything is bound to happen but in this kind of match, I expect Xabi to get all 3 points and boost his lead to the league title.

 Winning the three points would widen the gap between them and Bayern Munich and I believe Xabi and his boys would not let their fans down, they really impressed everyone therefore they need to maintain consistency and seize the opportunity of achieving what Dortmund couldn't achieve last season, well the journey for the trophy is not going to be smooth but if they continue working hard, they could make winning it a possibility.

[Weawant]

A draw for Dortmund wasn't a good result for their current status as they were supposed to win that game and probably cover up for the spacy which they have give recently, they are currently far away from the top of the table and a bit far away from the top four position aswell so this was an opportunity for them to close the gap a little.

It seemed like Dortmund had a bad day because all through the game they were on the domineering side and yet we're unable to win at the end of the day, rather they were mostly just giving dangerous attempts. Augsburg did tried with the kind of resistance they did put up to stop every attempts Dortmund was making they were even leading with a goal ahead before Dortmund later got an equalizer which brought the game to a draw and made them shared points equally, I think Augsburg did made sure they didn't loose probably because they were playing at home and it really looks embarrassing Lossing at home.

[TelolettOm]

The result of this match was very unnatural, and it seemed like Bayern Munich deliberately lost so that they would get a win from the gambling place. Many thought that Bayern Munich would win in this match, so with this defeat, many were harmed, including the fans of Bayern Munich who had already placed their bets.

I don't know whether this was due to manipulation or not, but the results of this match were very disappointing, not only for the gamblers who of course lost their bets. but also for Bayern Munich fans. because after all, every match is very important, especially the prestige is different. But, Bayern lost against big in this match by conceding 5 goals, this is really disappointing. But on the other hand, Frankfurt is not a bad team either, they are one of the big teams that can be considered in the Bundesliga. And it is indeed a quite tough opponent for Bayern and other top clubs. However, the problem is that Bayern conceded 5 goals, which is really disappointing.

Let's see how Bayern's next match against Stuttgart will turn out, whether it will be equally disappointing or whether there will be a breath of fresh air approaching it. Moreover, Stuttgart is also not a weak team, so the match will probably be tougher. Bayern needs to face it more seriously and not waste the opportunity. So that their position is not threatened because after all, the gap in points between them is very small, even though Bayern actually still has another match compared to the others.

This position is really risky for Dortmund because he could fail to enter the UCL next season if he continues like this.

Even in the last season when Dortmund was racing with Bayern Munich for the title in the in the top side of the table, Dortmund lost the games we were not expecting them to lose and they even lost to the teams with a weaker performance than Augsburg, that's how Dortmund lose the title in the last season to Bayern Munich in the last weeks.
now in the Bundesliga table, after losing this match to Dortmund, Augsburg has 26 points and they are in the 5th place in the league.

[TopT3ns]

Dortmund missed too many opportunities, Augsburg as well. It was a match that proved why Dortmund has been so bad this season. They shouldn't miss this attack opportunities. Malen was okay but he could do better. The team needs Haller and he's still not ready. It's hard to win with Bynoe-Gittens and Füllkrug. Not that they are bad players but they can't use their full capacity, they only play with %60 at max. It's a shame for Dortmund, they should've been in the discussion this season while Bayern is having hard times but they just gave this chance to Leverkusen.

It can be seen that Dortmund's game doesn't seem to be good and often makes blunders. With Dortmund's very poor performance in this match, at least they can still score a draw and not lose this match. Hopefully, Dortmund will evaluate this match and won't repeat the same mistakes. In the next match, even though Dortmund's possession of the ball was good, the result was very embarrassing because a team as strong as Dortmund had to end in a draw.

Dortmund actually played quite well in this match, they had lots of opportunities. However, unexpectedly, the home team put up quite fierce resistance. Not inferior to Dortmund, Augsburg also has quite a lot of opportunities. Dortmund should be able to win this match, but unfortunately their problem remains the same, namely, their center forward cannot be relied on in every match. In this match, Fullkrug played quite well, one assist, 2 chances, 2 missed big chances, 3 missed shots. In the end, he was unable to score a goal in this match, apart from providing one assist. That's why Terzic still gave Fullkrug a chance compared to Sebastien Haller, who didn't contribute anything as long as he was given the chance to play, either as the main starter or second line player.  Haller only had 10 appearances in 15 matches, 4 of which were starters. but as far as Terzic provided opportunities, Haller was unable to produce a goal. So it's only natural that Terzic chose someone else. As for Gittens, he is a young player who is still 19 years old. However, the appearance is quite neat.  in other words, he still needs more flying hours to reach his game. tactically, Dortmund is better than the home team. However, the problem is that they always have difficulty scoring goals, as for Maukoko, this young player still has to undergo treatment due to his injury. In fact, previously it was hoped that this young player would perform well this season. unfortunately, Terzic didn't give him many opportunities and was only a second tier player.

As for Augsburg, they played quite well even though they tended to play more defensively. Overall, Augsburg didn't play badly.  especially their defensive line, which played disciplined and solid. As a result, both teams have to share points. and Dortmund's position had to go down, because Leipzig won the match over Hoffenheim. Tomorrow there are two matches we are looking forward to, namely Leverkusen vs Frankfurt and Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart.

Dortmund have not performed well in their last 5 matches in the Bundesliga where the draw against Ausgburg made a bad record for them as they failed to return to the top 4. Of course Terzic must evaluate well to bring changes to Dortmund game in the upcoming match because if they have difficulty returning to the top 4 rankings it will end their hopes of competing for the title this season. The difference in points with the first place team is getting bigger and that has made Dortmund sink their hopes of winning the title this season.

I think they are getting weaker in their own way, namely releasing star players in every transfer market. This will have a bad impact on them every season and fans will always be filled with hopes of becoming champions every season but in the end it always ends in disappointment. This season Leverkusen and Bayern Munich will dominate in the race for the title because they have a fairly close point difference between each other so that every match will be important for them in achieving maximum results.

The bad -> good -> bad performances continue.
I don't understand why they can't get solid back to back games together, not even against garbage teams like Augsburg. 

They showed amazing games in the UCL the last games and then in the Bundesliga they disappoint on every way possible.
Scoring is mostly the biggest problem, not even the brain farts here and there on defence. I don't know what the problem is actually since the players can do it, they have shown it in the Champions League. Is it coaching? It must be.

After having good start now suddenly they are on back foot and in last five games they lost10 points which bring them to fifth with difference from Stuttgart is also five points which can create problems for them now in next game they are going to host Mainz which is at the bottom and this can give them full three points, but now it's time for them to produce better results and having back in top four before it's going to be too late.
Defense is completely failure as they are leaking too many goals in last few games and this is giving problem headache, hopefully now in winter transfer window we will have some changes which will bring improvement after break, and they will be back into business for the rest of the season.
