Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Oluwa-btc]

They take a long time, not just 1 year. Xabi at least took almost 3 years to walk. Xabi has consistently improved his performance. Therefore, he was rumored to be replacing Anceloti in Madrid. Because Anceloti has definitely trained Brazil. Xabi is a young coach who seems to have good progress.

Currently the difference between Leverkusen and Munich points is 4. Munich has 1 game less. Not enough but it makes another pressure for Munich. In addition, to face this half of the season reportedly unchen is ready to buy 2 new players.  One of them is Joao Palhinha, Fulham defensive midfielder and 1 forward to support Kane.

We don't know bout that aspect of replacing Carlo Ancellotti yet!  We be only suggesting and sharing opinions about it. He's gone round European Competitions and worked with the best. He's applying all that he knows to his lads.

Carlo Ancellotti had also said he is hundred percent focused on his job with Real Madrid. It'll all make sense at the end of the season come May. I would agree though, he's yet to win the world cup with the any of the international or national clubs out there.

Bayern Munich are hungry lions, the be mounting enough pressure on Bayern Leverkusen. Anyways, I'll still love them to win..

But ya, the reality remains not easy for Bayern Munich this season, because the competing team on the title race this season also have very good consistency throughout the first half of the season.

And this season now there are at the moment more teams as it looks now for the race of the title.
Not only Leverkusen and Bayern Munich are fighting about it , Suttgart is still in the race and maybe Leipzig and Dortmund have some chances too.
I would be not surprised if we see in the second half of the season some teams will play better as in the first halftime.

[samuraijin]

No matter what anyone says, Bayer Leverkusen will have done a great job if they become champions this season. Whichever team can stop Bayern München's years-long domination in Germany is truly great.

I also hope that Bayer Leverkusen is able to emerge as champions this season, to stop Bayern München from fighting for the Bundesliga title this season, I am very confident in the task given by Xabi Alonso in acting as a reliable tactician this season, it is very clear that Xabi Alonso is capable bringing Bayer Leverkusen to the top of the Bundesliga standings, even though they are only four points adrift of Bayern München, at least Bayer Leverkusen is able to play consistently in every match and remain focused on winning the title this season so that it doesn't fall into the hands of Bayern München again.

Union Berlin are really fighting for their safety in the standings these days. After losing to Bochum really badly they managed to react against Koln and make up for that loss. There is still a gap of 3 points between them and the relegation zone though but they have a missing game to play as well. Hopefully we can see them reaching safety as soon as possible.

Because it isn't nice to see a team in this situation despite being far better in the previous season. They qualified for the Champions League I mean but now they are battling for not relegating from the Bundesliga.    Now they aren't a part of any other European tournament so they can fully focus on the Bundesliga.

I would say this season's title battle is only between Leverkusen and Bayern Munich. I don't think Stuttgart, Leipzig and Dortmund teams are fit to win the title.
The performance of the Dortmund team has been very erratic this season. Dortmund are now 15 points behind Leverkusen at the top of the table. It seems impossible to me for Dortmund to close this 15 point gap. Because the performance of Leverkusen is very consistent, on the other hand, the performance of Dortmund's players is erratic.
The Stuttgart team was in good form. But in the last four matches, they lost 5 points and fell far behind. The team would have been able to continue competing for the title if they could have achieved these 5 points.

Darmstadt is delivering an intense fight against the relegation zone. I thought they would be far behind, but many of their games have been close and they have also had some good results against far superior opponents. That is why I think this is still not over for them by any means. If they can get their draws here and there and then maybe win some of the games against the teams in front of them, perhaps they are able to avoid relegation or at least secure the play-off position.

It is difficult for Darmstadt to get out of the relegation zone because they qualify for the Bundesliga without having players of comparable quality to compete with other teams. Even Koln and Mainz, who have experience in the previous season, also find it quite difficult to get out of the relegation zone because currently they have only been able to collect 10 points from the 16 matches that have taken place. There are still a lot of left in the match and maybe there is still hope for the three clubs in the relegation zone to find points.

If I'm not mistaken Darmstadt have only won twice in the Bundesliga competition this season, which means they have lost a lot of points, leaving them at the bottom of the standings with 10 points. Union Berlin is also not necessarily safe because it is only three points away from a club in the relegation zone.

No doubt that you are probably right here. I only wanted to remark that when you just look at the table without checking some of the results, you would think that Darmstadt's chances are dead, but that isn't yet the case as they have played some games where it almost felt sad for them that they lost the game. The last time I had a look it was the draw against Hoffenheim that got me thinking maybe a miracle can be possible. I think the same about Luton Town in the Premier League. Now they won at home against Newcastle and three weeks before they had a lead against Arsenal, conceded a goal, which made it 3-3 and then they conceded another goal in the 97th minute. But Luton Town is still alive and I think Darmstadt is similar.

On the other hand, with everything we see now, especially with all the things that Leverkusen have done and achieved, there is nothing wrong with assuming with a  little confidence that it is likely that Leverkusen have more chances than several other teams or even Dortmund to be able to break the dominance of Bayern Munich, which has always been able to secure the trophy at the end of the season.

Honestly, with the defense that  Leverkusen has about the consistency they can always maintain, then with that I can confirm the greatness of Xabi Alonso, yes now Leverkusen only has a difference of 4 points with Bayern Munich, I don't think it matters even though the difference is not too significant because obviously we have seen evidence from several matches they have passed that they can always dominate the match by winning three full points or at least sharing points. Next up for Leverkusen is Augsburg which I don't think is a particularly difficult game for them, I'm pretty sure of that.

It might be premature to completely write off teams like Stuttgart, Leipzig, and Dortmund from the title race. Dortmund have a history of making comebacks. Football seasons are long, and teams can experience fluctuations in form, especially Leverkusen who don't have a good quality depth. Dortmund has the talent and experience to turn things around, especially if they address any issues affecting their consistency.

RB Leipzig have a strong squad, and if they find their rhythm, they could mount a challenge for the title. Never underestimate the capabilities of a team that has consistently performed well in both domestic and international competitions. While Stuttgart may have lost some points in the last few matches, if it's due to temporary issues like injuries or fixture congestion, the team might bounce back and regain their form. Unexpected results, injuries, or changes in strategy can significantly impact the dynamics of a title race.

[tusandii]

Over the years, every season, we've seen certain teams leading the top chart of the Bundesliga and there's been some levels of consistency especially for Munich who's most of the time finished at the first position. Before now, Leverkusen and Stuttgart weren't even seen near the top four, it was always a Munich, Dortmund show but there's been much of a difference this season. Now there's a kinda rub shoulders between these teams, Leverkusen and Stuttgart who's been on the sidelines for seasons have now come up to be competitive for the trophy.

I look more towards Leverkusen which has the potential to win the Bundesliga title this season even though we all know that Stuttgart is also trying to catch first place but for me that will never be achieved because in terms of consistency it is still very far from Leverkusen and Bayern munich but only currently Stuttgart can still be said to be a challenger for the two top clubs and currently the Bundesliga is becoming more tense because worry always creeps into our minds, fear that Leverkusen will only be able to end up like Dortmund last season when they were very strong but at the end of the season lost first place and again dominated by Bayern Munich.
Xabi is still the best at the moment, almost breaking the strategy that Tuchel always uses and this time the bayern Munich coach is a little overwhelmed to be able to compete with Leverkusen who truly cannot be beaten.

I dont agree that Leverkusen dont have a good quality.
They for sure have and we can see that on the table where are they now the number 1.
The question is can they keep that good quality over the whole season , in my opinion its possible.
Also i hope that Dortmund maybe can make a comeback to join the race for the title.

I think it's too late now to find a rhythm for teams like Stuttgart, Dortmund or Leipzig. Because even if you find the rhythm, you will have to depend on Bayern Munich and Leverkusen to drop points to get that championship which they don’t seem to be doing. So far in the 16 matches, both Leverkusen and Bayern Munich have dropped points in 3 matches only which is pretty consistent. Leverkusen actually made a record breaking undefeated run in Bundesliga and they are continuing it. So I would agree with @MinorMiner

I think the championship fight will be between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen only. And I think the deciding match will be between them in February. Stuttgart, Leipzig, and Dortmund have big gaps between them and the top team. Although half of the season is remaining, I don't see them winning it. These 3 teams will be fighting between themselves for the top 4 spots to confirm the Uefa Champions League spot for next season.

This season the competition is much different from before, Laverkusen improved performance and their consistency in leading the Bundesliga standings have so far made them the favorite team. But that doesn't necessarily negate Bayern Munchen status as rulers, and we know that its dominance is not easily broken for many reasons, one of which is the depth of the squad which is better than any other team. The competition for the top four in the standings involving several teams at once is very interesting, but I think the existence of Dortmund, Stuttgart and Leipzig only disrupts the hunt for trophies and the consistency of Laverkusen and Bayern Munchen.

Xabi Alonso does not have as good squad depth as Tuchel, but his strategy in bringing out the best potential in players is worth admitting. In terms of the rotation options that Xabi has, it is a bit worrying that if they are hit by an injury storm, it could make Laverkusen lose his balance. On the other hand, it is very possible for Laverkusen to record an unbeaten record throughout the season if avoided from the storm of injury, as well as win its first Bundeliga trophy this season.

Next up for Leverkusen is Augsburg which I don't think is a particularly difficult game for them, I'm pretty sure of that.

Leverkusen is of course playing well. And I don't know if I can say that they are actually playing better than Bayern Munich or not. But I believe that even if I say that they are playing better than Bayern Munich, it won't be true. Because they have to think about the Champions League as well. Leverkusen also has to think about other competitions but those are of course not as hard or competitive as the Champions League. A lot of people will agree that Bayern Munich still has a good chance of winning the title. After all, they have been doing it for the last 11 years.

Xabi Alonso has to be praised. He has made the team perform well even when he doesn't have the best of players for service. But that's what coaches are supposed to do, unlike a certain someone like Ten Hag 

[Roseline492]

The small difference in points with its closest competitor Bayern has not been able to make Laverkusen sit comfortably at the top of the standings, just losing points by drawing is enough for Tuchel and his fleet to overtake Laverkusen. everyone certainly agrees that breaking Bayern dominance is not an easy matter, and anyone who can do it deserves respect.

Although is actually gonna take Bayern Munich time to beat Bayern Leverkusen on the league table because there points different is a bit much because Leverkusen has 42 points while Bayern Munich has 38 points so perhaps for Bayern Munich to beat Leverkusen is only if they are able to win there straight two matches while Bayern Leverkusen will lose there two matches which perhaps we no is not possible because with the performance of Bayern Leverkusen I don't think there is much of a rival against them except Bayern Munich so if they should maintain there current performance Bayern Munich will not be able to beat them on the table.

I don't know if this was talked about before, it's sort of about football but also not Kane has moved out of the hotel that he was staying all this time since he joined Bayern, it's believed that he spent a bit more than a million euros for staying there. I mean no matter how rich you are, that is definitely a terrible financial decision.

Apparently he was staying at a high level room (king suite? no idea what's the name, best room in that hotel) for the past three or so months since he joined, and the totals came to a million euros. He finally left which I think is a smart and good move, he should be leaving anyway, it's a terrible decision, he could have rented a fully decked out villa for that money, it wasn't a smart decision.

Leverkusen is performing like they are in their best form while they played 16 games so far in the Bundesliga against strong teams in this league, Leverkusen is still unbeaten and other is not any team to win a game against Xabi Alonso and his players.
People think Leverkusen is having good performance mostly because of their coach which is totally wrong but I think Xabi Alonso was most the only reason for this team.

Bayer Leverkusen is doing very well in the Bundesliga this year. They have now won 13 in 16 matches and drawn the remaining 3 matches. I think the fact that they had no defeats in the league was enough to prove Leverkusen's strength to us this year. There is currently almost no point difference between them and Bayern because Bayern has played one match less. Despite this, they are very focused on the league with a great example of struggle. Xabi has leveled up the team.

The entire club did a good job pre-season. The player purchases were all well done and very well thought out. And Alonso did a great job of turning the players into a well-functioning team.

However, it will be exciting to see what things look like after the winter break. Some of Bayer's top players will travel to the Africa Cup of Nations and then it will become clear whether the second line of players can maintain the current level or not.

Although is actually gonna take Bayern Munich time to beat Bayern Leverkusen  

The beauty of the football game is that Bayern Munich do not even need to beat Bayer Leverkusen, not at all. Bayern munich just needs to get maximum points whenever Bayer leverkusen drops points and the 4 points margin will vanish. Also, recall that Bayern Munich has a game advantage because they have played one game less than other teams in the league.

The title charge is on!!!

[Belarge]

Although is actually gonna take Bayern Munich time to beat Bayern Leverkusen  

Leverkusen have grown so tall and no longer on the same level with Munich. Everything working so perfectly and I must say this, Leverkusen would keep flying higher on the table because the board appointed a promising young coach that's fresh and new to the system. No time on Bayern Munich side because they misused their chances of topping Bayer Leverkusen and now Thomas Tuchel thinks he have time to settle for the first spot on the Bundesliga table? He can't even exercised confident of winning these mediocre clubs because his team is shaking and they don't stand strong to practiced streak winnings.
