Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Hvdv]

Bayern Munchen most likely cannot win anymore the Bundesliga with such performances like the one of yesterday which was the worse of all season for them.Bayer Leverkussen is in top form and quite some points ahead of them with the direct clash being played in their home field and this is another advantage for them.They are winning any game and even turned back results from 2-0 to 3-2 showing their force.

Bayern Munich still has 1 match missing. Still, we can talk about a great year for Leverkusen. Even if Bayern Munich wins the missing match, they will only be good enough to reduce the point difference to 4 points. I guess no one predicted Bayern's last defeat because they could not score a goal and had problematic moments in the defense area. These are bad experiences for Bayern. Let's see if Bayer Leverkusen, who are ahead of them, will make mistakes in the upcoming matches.

This quite suffocating defeat must certainly be a whip for Tuchel and all the Munich players to immediately recover. The defeat which caused the points gap to widen even further with Leverkusen definitely put Tuchel under great pressure, if he doesn't get up immediately then Tuchel could soon be kicked out. Meanwhile, Kane, who is Bayern Munich's new striker, was also unable to do much at all. He actually came to Allianz with the hope of winning a trophy, but if we look at it, it seems like that chance is very slim unless FC Hollywood is really able to return to its top form until the end of the season.

If you look at and think about all the lineups and playing strategies, it can definitely be said to be quite perfect, of course Bayern Munich should be able to achieve victory.
However, this is football where there will be many surprises that can cause the favorite or top seed to fail and lose, and I often say that when there is luck and surprises it can make the bottom team beat the favorite team.
Maybe there was some interference from certain parties that made this defeat happen, but I not sure whether something like that can really happen, especially for big competition like the Bundesliga.
But I sure many football fans, especially Bayern Munich fans, were disappointed by the defeat, I believe many people also bet and lost.
I lost some money but it doesn't matter because losing in betting is normal and happens often.

Mainz and Union Berlin were due to play against each other the last Friday. But the game was cancelled due to winter weather conditions. The catch-up game will now take place at 07. February. The match between Saarbrücken and Borussia Mönchengladbach in the DFB Cup will also take place at the same evening.
The catch-up match between Bayern Munich and Union Berlin will take place tomorrow. Many hopes that Bayern Munich will also lose as they lost against Werder Bremen. But that will not happen. As always Bayern Munich will find an answer and Union Berlin will certainly receive many goals.

[tbterryboy]

Bayern Munich had a whole lot of chance not to only equalize but to aswell lead the game but this .ay have been one of those unlucky days that most teams eventually face and will really find it difficult regardless of the team they are playing against at that time. They may be playing a weak team but if happens on your bad day trust me you aren't going to get a goal regardless of how much effort you put into winning such games. Leverkusen are just looking Lucky as the tension will gradually slow down with the recent space they are giving their immediate team behind them.

I would say Leverkusen play like champions, they win games that look impossible and yet they get the points. If they continue like this, they will become German Champions. Bayern Munich were beaten by a player who play in Munich in 2015: Mitchell Weiser. He must have been very happy and the fact that Bremen won the game is a big surprise. Now Bayern has to win the game against Leverkusen, anything else would bring Leverkusen very close to the Championship.

After the end of the first half, as we have dominating performance from the Leipzig I was not expecting fightback like this from the Bayer Leverkusen, but they have done like champions at the end and keep their title hopes alive as they are doing from the start of this season with this win now things are turning into their favour because current difference of points is seven which is big for the teams which are not having quality and consistency like them, and they have gone give their best if they want to have chance for challenging them in coming weeks.

All other top three teams loses their matches and points as well which are surely going to have good changes in top ranks in coming weeks even for the top two spots we will have no change, but few other spots are going to have changes which are surely going to create good entertainment for the fans in near the end of this season which have too many teams for the top four spots.

Stuttgart will playing against Leipzig next weekend and both teams had similar situations because their performance in Bundesliga were decline and Stuttgart in Bundesliga only gets 1 win from 5 matches they even last week have to lost against weak team Bochum even so with Leipzig because last week Leipzig was dramatically lost from Leverkusen so this match will be so interesting because Stuttgart and Leipzig has 1 difference point on league standings so if Leipzig can beat Stuttgart then they will be taking over 3rd place from Stuttgart

Leipzig and Stuttgart both teams has sharp striker because Stuttgart has Serhou Guirassy and Leipzig also has Lois Openda and for Leipzig so far Lois Openda as the successfull transfer for Leipzig because Lois Openda can able to performing well as the replacement of Christopher Nkunku who transfered to Chelsea but today their conditions a bit good compared to Stuttgart because Lois Openda most likely will be available but Stuttgart they still unable to play Serhou Guirassy because got injured besides that if we see from head to head statistics Leipzig records was more good than Stuttgart so in my opinion Leipzig has good chances to be the winner of this match and i haven't checked the odds yet for them but i assume the bookmakers will provide high odds for them

Last season, Bayern miraculously managed to become the Bundesliga champions with the same number of points as Dortmund. This season, they are again at risk of falling into a similar situation or even losing the title. Probably the next game against Union will bring them three points and they will get closer to Leverkusen. But the competition is still high.

When you said that last season Bayern Munich was miraculously able to get the title, I don't agree with your opinion because the productivity of the Munich team is much better than other teams in the Bundesliga so that for decades they have always been able to get the title in the Bundesliga.
It's not a miracle and that is the real performance that Bayern Munich has and this season we don't know whether Leverkusen has a guarantee whether it can stay at the top of the standings but for me this team will have the same fate as Borussia Dortmund.

Playing at home against Union Berlin, of course on paper Bayern Munich is guaranteed to get three points, but indeed, if Bayeen Munich has bad luck then Bayern Munich will fail. But anyway, I personally am very confident that Bayern Munich will succeed in beating Union Berlin because ya, at least at this moment Union Berlin is also not in a good trend. But indeed, even though Bayern Munich managed to get three points in this match but ya, in reality there is still a four point gap with Bayer Leverkusen . Therefore, I personally believe that it will still be difficult for Bayern Munich to overtake Bayer Leverkusen, because it seems like Bayern Munich is also under a lot of pressure, making it difficult to maintain good results in every match.

[RockBell]

Bayern as a team is so strong, but they have struggled to maintain consistency, especially in matches against lower-level teams. This inconsistency has led to dropped points, which could be detrimental to their title defense. This is quite an issue with Thomas Tuchel who sometime loses focus on team that were expected to beat. This could be a crucial factor in the title race, because consistency is often a hallmark of the competition's champion.

Bayer Leverkusen this season is quite strong with commendable consistency throughout the season. The dramatic victory against Leipzig will be a confidence booster that indicates that they are building momentum at a critical juncture in the competition. This is a sign of strong competitive title race for Bayern which used to dominate the league for a decade.

Bayern is not in their best performance now but even at that they are still trying their best by all means and to some extent they are still trying because they are still the one in second place with about 41 points and it does not look like this season anything for Bayern and Dortmund both kings of Bundesliga and now they are no longer kings and Bayer Leverkusen is already leading them with about 48 points. the margin might be getting longer and Bayern might not be able to catch up. and most of all these big clubs underestimate small clubs too much and that is where their problems are coming from. keeping that consistency is always difficult for clubs to maintain. clubs you did not expect are the once dominating. and I hope Bayer Leverkusen will continue with their consistency.

Leverkusen is growing rapidly in the hands of Xabi Alonso. This season is Xabi's second season managing the German club and the results have been extraordinary. Until now, the performance of Xabi's team has been extraordinary, the series of positive results they have achieved has made this team the leader of the Bundesliga standings with a difference of seven points. The latest victory over RB Leipzig further confirms that Leverkusen will become champions this season, but even though the opportunity is visible, Leverkusen cannot feel proud because the season is still very long.

Seeing the competitor's increasingly confident situation certainly made Bayern Munich start to worry. If you don't want to see Xabi Alonso partying then Thomas Tuchel has to do something to stick to Leverkusen. Of course, the Bavarians still have the opportunity to continue pursuing, at least Munich must maximize the match that will bring these two teams together on 11 February before preparing to face the Champions League. However, if you lose points again and the gap widens, it will be very difficult for Tuchel to bring Munich back to being champions.

Currently, Leverkusen's consistency has put them in the top contending spots for the Bundesliga title. Even though it's not so certain yet as there are still games to determine the victor, there's every possibility that there may be change of hands this season.
Munich are doing their best to match up the intensity of contest Leverkusen are putting forward.

 Definitely they can hold onto the pressure for a while and for Leverkusen, they are not resilient in pursuing that major aim. Alonso and his squad aren't giving up and weekly they put up a whole different energy towards that trophy race. The time is sure going to be tough for all their opponents and the games will go almost to the last end before a victor can be confirmed. Currently they're the only team that's still maintained an unbeaten run in Europe.

Yes, last season Bayern Munich were really lucky, they were at the point of despair in defending their title because the championship match was in the hands of Dortmund, but as I said that they were really lucky in the end they could still defend the title because of the failure made by Dortmund in the decisive match at the end of the season. And yes this season they look different, there seems to be a slight decline in performance there and in addition there are newcomers whose performance cannot be doubted, namely Leverkusen as we know that they are very strong and have good consistency in maintaining the top of the standings.

Since this season began, to be honest, from the few matches they have passed I was really disappointed when I saw their defeat against Frankfurt with a landslide score and the latest was in yesterday's match against Werder, this is a defeat that is really hard to believe, even though in terms of statistics Bayern Munich is far above Werder, and this result also makes me and maybe some other people put doubts on Bayern Munich's next match against Union Berlin, however I think there is no reason for Tuchel to waste opportunities like this again because catching Leverkusen's points is the main goal if they still want to defend the title.

I think that we dont see in the future the same unlucky bad playing Bayern Munich we have seen the last weekend against Werder Bremen.
And they know that they would have to win the title that they have to win the next and maybe all games for that.
Tuchel for sure will get the team some words that there performance next match will be back to normal.

As of now, we are in 18th round with 16 rounds left and many ups and downs can happen to predicting about win is still too early because any time we can have changes or injuries can bring significant changes in teams now tomorrow Bayern Munich is going to host Union Berlin which is currently just above relegation zone so most chances we will have strong comeback from them in this match which will give them 3 points and difference of points by 4 which is chase able even not easy but still things can happen, and we can have good competition for the title until end of this season.

For the next two spots, things are also going to have good changes as Stuttgart is going to host RB Leipzig which is trying to come back after lost of 8 points in last three games and Borussia Dortmund is also trying his best for coming back into business which was they lost before break and now having good performance in last few games.

[TopT3ns]

Bayern is also capable of playing well in decisive matches, maybe against Werder they simply underestimated the opponent and it was their mistake. You are right, Bayer needs to become champions this year, because next year everything may change, Alonso may be invited to another club, and Bayer players may also be invited to other teams, since Bayer is not a team that can refuse a good amount, for the transfer of their players.

Today Bayern will play the missed match with Union Berlin, they definitely need to win this match because if they continue to lose points, the match with Bayer will not be so decisive.

Bayern Munich should win this match because Union Berlin has a team that doesn't seem ready to face the strength of Bayern Munich. With this match, hopefully Bayern Munich will make good use of it and achieve victory. It doesn't need to score many goals; the important thing is that Bayern Munich will win the match. This is enough to add points at the top of the standings and still fight to win first place.

[AHOYBRAUSE]

Maybe Bayern Munich were just unlucky even though they had no weaknesses at all in the match and appeared with a full squad, ...

I'm not sure if you actually saw the game or if we just have a completely different perspective. But Bayern played anything but well. In a ranking by a German sports magazine, seven players received a rating of 4 or worse (1 is best, 6 worst), which is a miserable rating for Bayern players. Bremen didn't play well either and still managed to win. I think that says it all.

I just watched the highlights and must say, Bayern was the much more active team, but unlucky in front of the goal with some aluminum hits and a 12:0 final spurt with shots, but nothing that actually counts. 

About the grades, I guess by Kicker, yeah they are a little bit off. Sure Bremen won but looking at the stats of this game it is no way fair to give the Bremen players MUCH better grades.

Bayern was 22:8 on shots, 10:2 on corners and had 68% possession. In other words statistically they were the more active -> better team.
Let's say Bayern scored 2 goals in the last 5 minutes, the grades might be reversed, even though Bremen played well for almost 90 minutes.
How Kicker can give grades like this ( the red numbers behind the name ), is beyond my understanding. I guess winning make a 5 or 4 into a 2 and vice versa.

Yesterday defeat against Bremen further increased their distance from Leverkusen, a distance of 7 points is not an easy distance for Bayern to catch, especially if they continue to lose points to lower teams, Union Berlin is not a favorite in this match considering the strength that Bayern Munich , but however Uniom Berlin still has a chance to embarrass Bayern Munich in this match like Wender Bremen did, I think winning this postponed match will be a hope for Bayern Munich to return to the title competition even though it is a little difficult but at least they still have a chance to get their 12th consecutive trophy this season, but if Bayern Munich draws or even loses to Union Berlin, it is certain that the Bundesliga title this season will only be a dream for Kane and the rest of the Bayern Munich squad.

Whatever the score, The important thing is that victory must be achieved to recover from the defeat they just experienced against Bremen. The second defeat experienced by Bayern Munich this season has widened their gap with Bayer Leverkusen, the match against Union Berlin must be a turning point for Bayern Munich so that they continue to consistently maintain a points distance from Bayer Leverkusen. Currently Leverkusen is 7 points ahead of Munich who is in second place in the standings, Munich can still cut the gap to four points because they still have one game remaining. This season has been a bit tough for Munich because their rivals have always been able to maintain their performance well.

Thomas Tuchel incharge and no significant changes have been made yet, instead we're watching poor performance of his team. Does he need more new signings? I guess not because the ones available are top class and knows what to do to secure three points. Bayern Munich are suffering from injuries and fatigues, and it's coming from their key players. Do not put your trust on Bayern Munich because they're entirely different from last season, unable to maintain consistency in matches this have become one of the big challenges for the Bavarians this season.

This season, they are again at risk of falling into a similar situation or even losing the title. Probably the next game against Union will bring them three points and they will get closer to Leverkusen. But the competition is still high.

Bayern Munich could win and get three points when facing Union Berlin, which this season has started to suffer with its poor performance. But what I couldn't have expected was Bayern Munich's defeat at home against Werder Bremen, which would make the point gap with Leverkusen even more serious and this would make Bayern Munich experience more pressure when chasing Leverkusen, which is still quite strong at the top of the Bundesliga standings at the moment.

Bayern may likely not loose to Berlin but it's very possible they get a draw but I don see Bayern Munich risking it knowing how much it could cost them so the chances that it's a win is much more than it will be as a draw or a loss for Bayern Munich, their efforts in this game will be much more than it was in their most recent game where they lost.

It really appears not an easy point to catch up with but Bayern Munich is a very opportunistic team and by that I mean at every slightest opportunity and chance they would stop at nothing to getting to the top, seven points really looks like a long enough distance to make up for but with three consecutive wins and a single draw from Leverkusen and they will be much closer to displacing Leverkusen at the top of the table than you can ever imagine. Leverkusen needs to maintain a winning streak to keep the space wide enough at every point.

At least, one thing you should consider is about Bayern Munich's performance this season, because basically Bayern Munich still has a good performance and that is evident with Bayer Munich remaining strong in second place. It's just that, the problem this season is that Bayern Munich has a difficult opponent in the title race because after all, Xabi Alonso has also managed to set many new records for Bayer Leverkusen so far which is still unbeaten in all competitions. Therefore,no matter how good the performance Bayern Munich has this season but ya, it is still not enough to be able to overtake Bayer Leverkusen in the race for the title this season in the Bundesliga standings.

To be honest, I think it was miraculous that Bayern Munich became champion last year. I think they scored the goal in the 89th minute. I can say that Dortmund unexpectedly lost points and handed the championship to Bayern Munich in the last week, which they entered with a huge advantage. That's why we can say that Bayern miraculously became champions last year.

Bayern Munich were very lucky last season. If Dortmund had not lost the last match, it would have been impossible for Munich to win the title. But despite Dortmund performing well throughout the season, the Dortmund team was unexpectedly defeated in the last match. Also Bayern Munich won the last match. However, Leverkusen have been playing very well this season. And these two teams are competing for the title. Dortmund or Leipzig teams are far behind. Leverkusen is now 7 points ahead of Bayern Munich. Even if Munich win their next match, they will be 4 points behind Leverkusen. Closing the gap will not be easy for Munich now.
