Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[GiftedMAN]

Bayern Munich flogged their opponents 5-1 and I'm pretty sure it doesn't change anything. Bayer Leverkusen are fiercely unbeaten and have always dominated strong hold of the team this season. I've closely watch the performance of the Leverkussen, they're one of the promising team thay have become a pure motivation for other team out there. What are the outcomes for Bayer Leverkusen to keep the unbeaten race this season? Their odds of losing becomes small because they're now 100% untouchable in both Bundesliga and the Europa League.

No matter how many lashes from Bayern Munich against Union Berlin at Berlin's home ground, it won't have any effect other than just winning because Union Berlin is really weak this season. And as for Bayer Leverkusen itself, I don't think it needs to be said any more because the team has already celebrated its championship this season in the Bundesliga. Even though Leverkusen will continue to play to win until the end of the season because they themselves also really want to finish this season with nothing at all.

You are right no matter how many goals Bayern Munich will scored against Union Berlin or any other clubs it will never make them to go anywhere and even if they decided to win all there remaining match it will still not be enough to compete with Bayern Leverkusen, so perhaps I think Bayern Munich is fully aware that they no longer have chance on this league trophy, so maybe they are just trying to proof a point that they are not completely on a bad shape that's why they are more consistent on wining, though on a serious note Bayern Munich seem to have regain their performance lately because that's why they have been able to be progressing on the champions League.

Bayer Leverkusen has already been declared champions so yes Bayern Munich wins till the end of the season has no effect on Leverkusen but it does matter in their position in the league since they are struggling to match sure they end in the second place in the league and with Stuttgart having equal points with them and Bayern Munich being ahead of them with goal difference, it's still good if Bayern Munich keep lashing the teams they play till the end of the season so that at least they will be second in the table. The season is really a bad season for Bayern Munich in the league because they have been struggling since the beginning of the season till they finally lost the league title due to their poor performance so yes they can still prove to have learnt things the hard way by finishing as runners up and winning the champions League to celebrate the poor performance they have had on the league.

[Docnaster]

Bayern Munich won a landslide victory over their opponent Union Berlin with a score of 1-5 and this was another big win after previously beating Darmstadt away from home with almost the same score. It seems that the previous victory against Arsenal in the Champions League has improved the mentality of the players so that they don't give up at all even though they failed to win the Bundesliga title this season and they should be like that.

Apart from that, Leipzig also got the full 3 points after winning with a narrow score of 1-2 from hosts Heidenheim. This result also allows Leipzig to maintain its top 4 position and at the same time widens the point gap again from Dortmund. Now Leipzig's opportunity to advance to the Champions League is much more open considering that according to the new Champions League regulations, Germany is one of the countries that can send representatives from up to 5 teams next season along with representatives from Italy.

Even though Bayern Munich has certainly failed to defend the championship title they have held for many years, it is not appropriate for them to become sluggish and their mentality decrease. After all, they are a big team, they have to show a good mentality even if they don't become champions this season. For me there is no reason for them to lower their mentality, especially since they are very respected in the Bundesliga.
Their task doesn't end just because Leverkusen has locked in the title, they have to keep playing until the end, until the final week in the Bundelsiga. Moreover, the victory they got was also good for their capital to face Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-final match.
If they lose in the Bundesliga it will actually bring down their mentality in the Champions League, and that is not very good, especially as the opponent they will face is a very strong team and is the team that has won the most titles in the Champions League.

I do see opinion from some people who suggests that it's needless for Bayern Munich to continue putting out their best performances in their remaining fixtures of the Bundesliga campaign since they've already lost the league title to Bayer Leverkusen. I do not take such opinions serious because to me, I feel that whoever says such do not know much about football.
Bayern Munich for a fact have lost their title defense but a club of their status, you don't expect them to stop delivering their best performances especially when they have a crucial two-legged UEFA Champions League encounter against Spanish giants Real Madrid. They have to keep winning games to grow the confidence of the team before they play Madrid

I really thought that maybe today is day that Leverkusen will be losing after i have seen that Dortmund was leading at the 88 Minute.
But i dont know how Leverkusen will be making it everytime that they score in the overtime or last Minutes of the game.
A big thing for Dortmund with that draw from that Match.
Also Stuttgart lost today unexpected , damn.

You are right no matter how many goals Bayern Munich will scored against Union Berlin or any other clubs it will never make them to go anywhere and even if they decided to win all there remaining match it will still not be enough to compete with Bayern Leverkusen, so perhaps I think Bayern Munich is fully aware that they no longer have chance on this league trophy, so maybe they are just trying to proof a point that they are not completely on a bad shape that's why they are more consistent on wining, though on a serious note Bayern Munich seem to have regain their performance lately because that's why they have been able to be progressing on the champions League.

For this season, Bayern Munich can aswell just focus on the champions league knowing they don't have a chance at the bundesliga trophy this season but next season is a good time to try again nbut not with tuchel as their coach if not they are bound to still repeating some of the mistakes they make this season so it's important they make sure they are able to get rid of him to enable them get a tactics next season for a chance bat the trophy.

Scoring much or too many goals at this point isn't what they need or isn't going to help them enough to get the results that will take them to the top of the table but then if they are able to find a way to improving their firm now they may probably get a chance at the champions league especially if they happen to make it to the finals of the Champions league which ofcourse is very possible for them if only they are able to win their next two Champions league games ahead of them. Allt hey can do now at the bundesliga is making sure they finish at the second position on the table for a chance to play the champions league again by next season.

Bayern Leverkusen have totally dominated the bundesliga such that no other team can at this point this season be able to get them displaced from the top even if they happen to win all of their remaining games till the end of the league this season but then they aren't going to even be able to do that but i believe Bayern Leverkusen is most definitely going to maintain the record of them staying at the top of the table unbeaten till the end of the season.

We can now laugh at those who are thinking that Bayern Leverkusen will lose their Europa League match to AS Roma. They have probably failed to see that Bayern Leverkusen are not only good this season but luck is also on their side. I will not call it coincidence that they magically come out with a draw each time they are about to lose. It has happened many times with that of tonight against Borussia Dortmund being the highest of it. I am highly satisfied with the performance of Bayern Leverkusen this season and it is my expectations that they will carry on with this new found strength so that we will have three strong teams from Germany and not only Bayern Munic and sometimes Borussia Dortmund. Their next match is against Stuttgart, a very good team but Bayern Leverkusen will likely win the match as they are playing at home.

Anyone who saw the match between Borussia Dortmund vs Leverkusen would definitely think that Leverkusen would experience their first defeat of the season, because entering extra time they were still 1 goal behind hosts Borussia Dortmund. But Leverkusen refused to lose in this match when they managed to score a late goal in added time. It came from a header from Josip Stanisic who took advantage of the opportunity from a corner kick.

I saw how Xabi welcomed the goal with enthusiasm, because thanks to that goal he could still extend their unbeaten record this season. This is a very extraordinary thing for Leverkusen, they did not give up looking for a goal until the final second of the match and their efforts produced sweet results for them in this match. Once again they avoided their first defeat of the season. The statistics are fantastic, even though they have locked in the title, the enthusiasm is still burning.

I dont want or will lough at others that said that , because every game is a different one , especially when its a game in the Europa League.
Sooner or later it will happen that they will be losing a match , hopefully its not the next one against AS Roma.

It has happened many times with that of tonight against Borussia Dortmund being the highest of it.

Maybe after the last Champions League game win they know again what they can play and doing on the field.
Saddly my bet was on a win for Leverkusen but i am good with that draw for Dortmund.
The game Stuttgart against Leverkusen will be a very nice and good one i guess.

[nurilham]

Thomas Tuchel has taken the decision to leave Bayern at the end of the season but no one knows what will happen in the future, so whatever speculation and rumors are still possible to come true.

It is not the decision of Tuchel, it is the decision of Bayern management to fire him. I believe Tuchel still wants to stay until the end of his contract but Bayern management feels disappointed with Tuchel. Tuchel can't get a minimum target that Bayern management sets for the current season. So, with this situation, it is clear that Bayern Munich will hire a new coach for the next season.

For your prediction regarding the match between Borrussia Dortmund and Bayern Leverkusen which will end in a draw, it is still quite possible, but I also see that there is a gap for Dortmund to break Leverkusen's unbeaten record this season because Dortmund really needs full points to remain competitive in order to finish in 4th position final standings.

The match has been over, it is true that the result of the match is a draw. Each team only scored 1 goal until the end of the match. This is not a too bad result for Bayer Leverkusen, it means they continue their record of unbeaten team until now. The next match will be a tough match again for Leverkusen, they will play against VfB Stuttgart.

Anyway, Dortmund still can't break the record of unbeaten team of Leverkusen.

A lot people were saying that Leverkusen would intentionally not play hard for dortmund or stuttgart. The dozens of last minute goals they scored this season in the league, Europa league and dfb can't be a coincidence. No matter what anyone says, this team will finish the bundesliga undefeated. 99% will win the dfb final, if they don't lose to roma, they will go down in world football history as the team that won all the tournaments they participated in a season undefeated, there is no team in history that has achieved this. I think they deserve the utmost respect.

Bayer Leverkusen has already been declared champions so yes Bayern Munich wins till the end of the season has no effect on Leverkusen but it does matter in their position in the league since they are struggling to match sure they end in the second place in the league and with Stuttgart having equal points with them and Bayern Munich being ahead of them with goal difference, it's still good if Bayern Munich keep lashing the teams they play till the end of the season so that at least they will be second in the table.

I have mentioned it earlier that the only hope Bayern Munich can have for the bundesliga again will have to be with next season and probably the champions league for this season away from that they actually don't have hope for trophy again this season so i didn't even have to think that they were even getting an opportunity again this season and even the champions league I'm just banking on their experience to be able to get something off it.

Second position is the best Bayern Munich can get even if they happen win every of their remaining game in the bundesliga with even far more goal difference it will still not be enough to helping them get to win the bundlesliga again this season as Leverkusen has been declared as the winners already, i have see that Leverkusen actually is deserving of the trophy this season and so it's actually a well deserving win for them this season and been able to still stay unbeaten too has to be another great mile stone in the achievement the have gotten this season, Bayern Munich literally tried too especially if they eventually get to finish at the second position on the table.

The struggle for Bayern Munich this season hasn't been an easy one so finishing second for me is a good result because we has at some point Stuttgart trying to raise their beds and even wanting to be at the top of the table but then Munich was still able to displace them from the second position to taking over the second position on the table by the end of the season but then i think by next season Stuttgart may grow to become a threat.

We wanted to see that because until now Xabi's record has not been broken by anyone and this big match like Dortmund was a hope especially when seeing Dortmund take the lead in the last 10 minutes of the match then there was a great hope that Xabi unbeaten record was stopped but in the end it still could not happen.

Stanisic didn't want it to end and 90+7 may have been a little late but it was enough to keep it going as it should.
With this result it doesn't change anything for Leverkusen but for Dortmund it's a bit of a shame because they still have to keep competing until the end for a spot in the top 4 and now that they only have 1 point it makes things a bit tougher for Dortmund.

Coming back from that was nothing short of a football miracle. They didn't even have to win or even draw, as they are already secured as the new Bundesliga champions, but denying Dortmund the win, just reinforced Leverkusen's invincibility aura.

Unfortunately for Dortmund, they are now 2 points behind Leipzig for the 4th place. Both teams will be facing each other next week, so Dortmund will have to win that away game if they're hoping to finish in the top 4.

We can now laugh at those who are thinking that Bayern Leverkusen will lose their Europa League match to AS Roma.
They have probably failed to see that Bayern Leverkusen are not only good this season but luck is also on their side.

Lol… you can say that again. The Europa League match will be a very different and challenging one for them but i agree with you on the fact that they have luck on their side always despite being so good this season. They seem to be good at equalizing goals at stoppage time, they have done it again today and it seems they will keep doing it till the end of the season. I would love to see them complete their unbeaten run till the end of season but winning Roma will not be easy task.

Maybe after the last Champions League game win they know again what they can play and doing on the field.
Saddly my bet was on a win for Leverkusen but i am good with that draw for Dortmund.
The game Stuttgart against Leverkusen will be a very nice and good one i guess.

I feel they are going to channel their focus more on the Europa League since they have already won the Bundesliga.

Betting on Leverkusen when they play a strong side like Dortmund should be with caution because a draw is likely to happen since Leverkusen are still unbeaten but a win would be difficult especially when they go away.

[khiholangkang]

My personal view is that Leipzig did win far above Heidenheim because we know that in terms of performance Leipzig is much better than Heidenheim, in general it is very natural for this time for Heidenheim to experience defeat against Leipzig.
Yes, Dortmund is getting more difficult with the current situation, Leipzig's victory over Heidenheim makes them think and feel that next season maybe they will not get a champion league ticket, it is very unfortunate if Dortmund can no longer participate in the champion league next season, even though currently with their hard work they are in the semi-finals, and next season Dortmund can only watch.

Hopefully Dortmund can reach the champions league final this time although I feel it is very difficult for Dortmund, but we don't know what luck a team can get in a match on the field.

RB Leipzig is one of the promising sides in Bundesliga which is giving their best in last few years and having good results as well right now they are having clearly advantage on Borussia Dortmund for again qualifying into top four and having spot into Champions League in this game against Heidenheim they were doing good job and at the end Openda score his 23rd goal of the season which give them important three points and now some edge against Dortmund which is today going to face Bayer Leverkusen for must win game if they fail to do this surely things could be out of the control for them with Leipzig could be in handy position for having spot into top four with now only other option is won the Champions League which is possible but not easy while we are having to the toughest sides in other semifinal.

And in the end it seems that Leipzig will really succeed in breaking through to the Champion league next season, Dortmund's match against Leverkusen resulted in an draw match, and made the difference between Dortmund and Leipzig become quite tenuous around 2 points at the moment, and it is a good move for Leipzig, unless he makes a mistake that makes them catch up again, considering that there are still 3 remaining matches that should not be idle, just one get tired and Dortmund one time wins in the match can be sure that Dortmund will return to the Champion league next season.

Leverkusen really have a strong mentality to fight for their ambition to end the season with unbeaten record. I thought Dortmund would end the record when they were leading till the ending of additional time. Dortmund don't seem to have mentality they have been showing in the Champions League games. In their last Champions League game, they were even able to win the match and qualify for semi-final after losing on aggregate to Atletico Madrid.

It feels like Dortmund is just good at attacking, they don't know how to defend the lead properly. Leverkusen know how to capitalize the late minutes situation to score the equalizer. Xavi Alonso and his players deserve the credit for their fighting spirit to achieve what will happen to be a big history in Bundesliga and football.

Once again they avoided their first defeat of the season. The statistics are fantastic, even though they have locked in the title, the enthusiasm is still burning.

Dortmund were really unlucky in this match, even though the match was held at Signal Iduna Park. Apart from that, Terzic has made efforts for his team to win this match with the system he implemented when hosting the match against Leverkusen. I think, in the end Leverkusen suffered defeat after Niclas Fullkrug scored a goal in the 83rd minute with an assist from Sabitzer. However, Xabi Alonso's team was again very lucky to be able to get a goal back and equalize in the final minutes of this match. Josip Stanisic scored a goal in the 90+7 minute, which made this match end in a draw. The joy radiating from Xabi Alonso was clearly visible, because his team maintained their unbeaten record until the 30th week.

In this match, Leverkusen was more dominant in controlling ball possession, but tactically the two teams were almost equal. Unfortunately for Dortmund, they should have been able to maintain their lead. Unfortunately, until the 90+7 minute the second half whistle was not sounded. and in the end, both teams only got one point for this match. but it is not a good thing for Dortmund, because they are in 5th place which is 2 points different from Leipzig in 4th place. The Bundesliga still has 4 matches remaining, Dortmund must win the remaining matches, including overthrowing Leipzig in Week 31. Thus, Edin Terzic's team was able to finish in the top 4 of the Bundesliga until the end of the season.

All this miracles happening in favor of Leverkusen have proven that this is their season so i am not surprised seeing them equalize at extra time because they have done it times without number this season. Miracle seem to happen whenever they play and that is how you know it’s their time to shine because when a team wants to win the league that is how they behave they never want to lose matches and they keep performing magics especially during stoppage times.

I felt they won’t be able to pull any stunt against Dortmund but they proved me wrong and show that they can perform better in the Europa League as well. It won’t be easy though but i really support them to win the Europa League title.

Another comeback from Leverkusen and this time they did it against Dortmund.
We know Dortmund was not a weak team, they are playing in the Champions League while some other teams like Manchester City got out of this tournament which can show their power and their good performance however they were lucky. But in the game against Leverkusen, they were very close to finally beating Leverkusen and winning this team.
By beating Leverkusen, Dortmund could be the first team they could beat Xavi Alonso and his players during this season.
But in the last moment of the game, Leverkusen scored the goal at 90+8' and they got a draw against Dortmund to stay unbeaten.

It's true, luck and miracle seem to have combined with Leverkusen this season, but on the other hand, the draw still felt very dramatic because everyone thought their unbeaten record would be broken at the hands of Dortmund. One minute changes everything, that can only be done by Leverkusen this season, because they have the magic to make endless luck. With the remaining 4 matches, it is very likely that Xabi Alonso will be able to bring his squad to a clean sweep of all matches and secure full points, or at least they will continue to maintain their unbeaten record until the season ends.

For Dortmund, the draw has made things difficult for them to break into the top four of the standings, because Leipzig indirectly benefited greatly from the draw. The competition for tickets to the Champions League will now be the only interesting thing in the Bundesliga, and next week Leipzig will face Dortmund directly. Meanwhile, we can see how influential Leverkusen is this season, they not only broke Bayern Munich dominance, but made the Bundesliga more competitive, including making Dortmund suffer.

[KTChampions]

I guess it is still important for Bayern to win these games no matter what, that big win definitely helps boost morale. Think about it this way, with these wins, they guarantee that at least they will be second and not third, which is important because if they kept losing then they could have been third place, so being second place is a lot better than being third place.

Plus, they could finish the season with a UCL title as well, not saying that they will win it all, but they are in semi-finals and that should be the most important part. I believe that we are going to end up with a situation that has to be quite fragile as well, that seems like the most important part of the deal, and they need to keep winning to have good morale for those games.

It seems to me that for Bayern there is no difference between second and third place - not being first is quite a shock for them. And if we remember the humiliation in a personal meeting and the fact that Bayer broke their record for the number of games without defeat, then I can assume that all the worst has already been experienced and Bayern have let the situation go. It seems to me that in the Bundesliga they will play “as it happens” (that’s why, for example, victory over Eintracht Frankfurt is not guaranteed in the next round) and concentrate as much as possible on the Champions League.
