Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Iranus]

There is no word "lose" in the Leverksuen dictionary

That is the confidence of the Leverkusen players, they are allergic to defeat, they really want to keep winning or at least a draw, that is what drives them to continue getting good results, there are no more games left and it is worrying for them that it seems like Dortmund is already over. it has been proven that they cannot be beaten and we have seen that Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen remain a solid team by never being beaten this season. What people feared Leverkusen would lose to Dortmund turned out to be overridden by them with hard work.

Dortmund was unable to win in the match against Leverkusen. And by the looks of it, they are definitely starting to look like they are going to miss the chance to finish in the fourth position. They are only two points behind Leipzig. So there is definitely a chance. But if they cannot win consistently in the matches that are left in the Bundesliga, they are not going to improve and finish in the fourth position.

For them to finish on the fourth position it is also going to take Leipzig to lose. Because if Leipzig actually is able to win the rest of the matches Dortmund is not going to get ahead of them and get on the fourth position. The biggest change for Dortmund is probably the match on the 27th when they are going to actually face against Leipzig. Because that is the chance for them to get ahead of Leipzig by winning.

I also thought like that but it seems we were wrong about Leverkusen and they continued to progress without ever tasting victory. But at the moment there are still a few matches left and if we talk about the next match against Stuttgart, I think Leverkusen can still overcome this. The reason is that in the first meeting at the start of the season, Leverkusen did have difficulty facing Stuttgart but they were able to stage a comeback win in the 90th minute and that was enough proof of how their mentality works.

Not only against Stuttgart, Leverkusen has repeatedly survived defeat with a last minute goal and I think that will still be the case against Stuttgart in the second round. Although there are doubts that this will be Leverkusen's first defeat this season, I still believe they are capable of continuing their unbeaten record.

The Bundesliga trophy tussle as of now is no longer on between Leverkusen and Munich and beyond every doubt, it has been proven that it was meant to rest in Leverkusen's cubicle. They've being consistent this season, and all games played in all competitions, they've incurred just 5 draws. This is one record that Munich has failed to achieve this season as there's been couple of game week loopholes and losses and this has cost them their attaining the toppest spot on the league table. The remaining games in the league are very much rosy for Leverkusen considering the first leg performances and results and also judging based on their approach to games.

 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 was a rub shoulders between these teams, Leverkusen and Stuttgart who had been on the sidelines for past seasons but this season have now come up to be competitive for the trophy. But of the teams so far in the contest, Leverkusen have been unique.
 
 Leverkusen have been impressive in all rounds and it's not surprising that they're now better than some already grounded teams. It only means that Xabi has a unique managing quality which can be of essence in bigger teams too. I believe he's still got good plans for the German team, which will still be manifested good. In the Europa League, there's been top contending teams from the start till the current stage of the contest.

Leverkusen always refused to lose, there were many matches they scored a goal near minutes 90 or injury time.

Yeah the upcoming match against Stuttgart will be interesting to watch, this season both Leverkusen and Stuttgart have improved a lot among other teams in Bundesliga. I think it will end in draw, but I won't really surprised if Leverkusen lose in this match.

Indeed, sometimes I also think the time will come for Bayer Leverkusen to lose the remaining matches this season. But playing against Stuttgart in the next Bundesliga match, it turns out that Bayer Leverkusen will also be playing at home and itseems difficult to beat Bayer Leverkusen at home.Moreover, in the previous match Stuttgart also lost by Werder Bremen and Stuttgart played away. With results like that, although I also admit that Stuttgart has good abilities to be able to provide tough resistance to Bayer Leverkusen, but still, beating Bayer Leverkusen at home is a difficult task for Stuttgart. But yes, any result is still possible, but it looks like Bayer Leverkusen is still able to maintain its consistency so as not to lose in the home match against Stuttgart later.

The next weekend Dortmund will play an away game against Leipzig, if Dortmund wins the game, they will have a chance to move back to the 4th position

They dont have the chance when they win that game against Leipzig , Dortmund will be getting back on the 4th place if they win.

but I think that will be a tough game for Dortmund because Leipzig is not a weak opponent, they have been performing well lately.
In their last meeting Dortmund lost at home to Leipzig, and Leipzig will host the second match, which they have more chances to win the game than Dortmund.
Since Dortmund will not risk their top players due to their next Champions League match against PSG, and the both match is very important for them to win.

Even Leipzig was lately very good in there games , its possible that they can be lose at home also as they have done against other small Clubs.
I guess that Dortmund will be find the perfect mix of players to play that 2 important games in the next week.
Perfect would be if Dortmund will be win this 2 games , if they keep there performance from the last 2 weeks.

Yeah the upcoming match against Stuttgart will be interesting to watch, this season both Leverkusen and Stuttgart have improved a lot among other teams in Bundesliga. I think it will end in draw, but I won't really surprised if Leverkusen lose in this match.

Leverkusen seemed destined not to lose this season, even though they almost lost, at the end of the match they definitely managed to equalize, making the result a draw. Until now, Leverkusen still maintains its unbeaten record in the Bundesliga and in all competitions this season. This is something extraordinary.

Honestly Leverkusen has become a surprise team this season with the way they keep their performance so strong against any team where meet that even thought they're winning them they will still much effort and make sure they equalized back. Because even thier last game against Dortmund was really surprising me when I saw that Dortmund was winning them by 1-0  the 80 minutes which I definitely give up for them, but at the end of game Leverkusen put efforts and lead the game to draw after they equalized back in 90 minutes of time.

Currently Leverkusen are the final kings, Will they finish the league without losing this season? We have to wait for Xabi to make new history for Leverkusen. Now there are just a few games left. But I also want to see xabi win the treble this season, good luck xabi.

Yeah actually Leverkusen are now in the final stage, and given to their currently performance i don't think they will be a team that will able to beat them now to reduce their  points. Because they have a high point in the in top standing that even thought they lose to one teams they will still claim the the tittle, since is not that they have much remaining is just a few game they have left  and although that their not a strong team I don't think they will lose to any of them.

I think Dortmund will hand Leverkusen their first defeat of the season. That would really hurt because there would only be 5 games left at that point. In fact, whatever the result will not change the fact that Leverkusen is the Bundesliga champion this season. But ending the league as champions with an unbeaten record would be history that will never be forgotten in football. I'm sure Alonso is also motivated to get an unbeaten record. Currently there are 4 matches left and there are several strong teams they will face. I think VfB and Frankfurt will be a challenge for them to maintain their unbeaten record.

Yeah the upcoming match against Stuttgart will be interesting to watch, this season both Leverkusen and Stuttgart have improved a lot among other teams in Bundesliga. I think it will end in draw, but I won't really surprised if Leverkusen lose in this match.

In the first meeting, Stuttgart was able to keep up with Leverkusen, especially since they took the lead early. but Leverkusen was able to equalize the score to a draw, and now the two teams meet again at Leverkusen's home BayArena. Stuttgart actually played quite competitively, but Stuttgart fell in the quarter-finals of the DFB Pokal. Well, at this meeting it looks like this match is quite interesting. because so far Leverkusen is unbeaten while competing in various competitions, but Leverkusen has a match after that in the semifinals of the European League which will visit AS Roma. We know very well that it is very likely that Xabi Alonso will maintain his unbeaten record. However, he also has to focus on facing Roma in the semifinals. Uniquely, Leverkusen is quite a bigger favorite than Stuttgart. Leverkusen with @1.70, while Stuttgart with @4.70. It is clear that if there is a gap between the odds of these two teams, I am quite sure that Xabi will complete his squad to achieve an unbeaten record in the Bundesliga.

Losing is never in their mind, winning or winning is their top priority. Bayern Munich couldn't withstand the pressure coming in from Bayer Leverkusen this season, they kept on a consistent performance, flogging every opponents they came acrossed without stress. Bayer Leverkusen tried and absorbed pressure, winning have always been the top goal for Xabi Alonso. He knows the challenges involved and have fully equipped his team to exert winning mentality. Bayer Leverkusen have been their very best, maintaining unbeaten run till this very moment.

Honestly, after they guaranteed basically winning the bundesliga, I assumed that Leverkusen would eventually lose because they would not care about the games but each time they drop behind, they show a great champion reaction and win the game in the end or get a tie at least.

There were plenty of games when they were behind, and at the last minutes they ended up winning, that's the most important thing. Showing champions relfex on situations like that would be the thing that decides their future. We will see how they will be, next season they will have Xabi again, we are going to see if they will win again, or will they be like Napoli last season and this season, just drop and be terrible instead of being good.

Bayer Leverkusen seems to have the ambition not to experience defeat until the end of the season even though this is impossible to happen but Bayer Leverkusen is trying to make it happen by continuing to refuse defeat even though they see their opponents are quite tough, I am also very surprised how Alonso handles this club well even though it is clear that Bayer Leverkusen has secured Bundesliga title this season, he should play more relaxed here without having to worry, even if he loses, everyone will certainly understand it and will not insult Bayer's defeat in the Bundesliga.

I think in the next match when they meet VFB Sttutgart for the second time this season Bayer Leverkusen will still continue their unbeaten record even if they lose this match it doesn't change anything but it would be funny if Bayer lost at home while when competing as a visiting team they are still trying a draw, I think the next result for Bayer Leverkusen is a draw and Bayer refuses to lose again.

[Leviathan.007]

Bayern Munich is in a bad situation they never had recently.
This situation of Bayern Munich is not good at all and this made the fans of this team worried about the future of Bayern Munich in Bundesliga and the Champions League. Nagelsmann got fired and Tuchel got his place and now it seems they want to get Tuchel fired from Bayern Munich because of bad performance and the bad relationship he had with some players.
Nagelsmann was about to return to Bayern Munch but he extended his contract with the German national team and his case is closed.
Also, Zidane was another option but it seems Zidane is not going to work in Bayern Munich or Germany.
This made the fans to think Tuchel was going to stay but Bayern Munich still wants him to go.

At the moment Leverkusen have won the Bundesliga this season, like you, I also think if Leverkusen will lower the tempo of their game in the remaining games, but in fact  precisely what we think is all wrong, after Leverkusen do not want to Wound their unbeaten record this season in the game against Dortmund, I think for now maybe their  try to maintain leverkusen record by continuing to field main players although maybe with a little rotation that will Carried out by Alonso in his squad later, rotation of players may be carried in the match against Stuttgart later because Leverkusen will face Roma in the semi-finals of the Europa League.

Against Stuttgart of course Leverkusen no longer has a burden so I think they will not completely field the main players in the game, while for Stuttgart of course against Leverkusen will be a crucial match for them to be able to continue to near with Bayern Munich who are currently second place, besides Leverkusen, of course Stuttgart this season is quite surprising because they are able to compete with strong teams at the top of the Bundesliga standings.

I think Dortmund will hand Leverkusen their first defeat of the season. That would really hurt because there would only be 5 games left at that point. In fact, whatever the result will not change the fact that Leverkusen is the Bundesliga champion this season. But ending the league as champions with an unbeaten record would be history that will never be forgotten in football. I'm sure Alonso is also motivated to get an unbeaten record. Currently there are 4 matches left and there are several strong teams they will face. I think VfB and Frankfurt will be a challenge for them to maintain their unbeaten record.

Dortmund through fullkrug in the 81st minute and many people believed that the match would be Leverkusen's first defeat but in fact that didn't happen, Leverkusen got up and managed to score a goal in the 90+7 minute through Stanisic.

Alonso is the coach most sought after by many big clubs in the world at the moment, many are willing to pay a lot of money to bring him in, the thing i'm curious about is whether next season Leverkusen will be like now, whether they will remain the strongest team in the Bundesliga again.

[Hvdv]

I think Leverkusen will continue to play very well and play matches with its main squad in order to break this record in the Bundesliga. Every team playing against Leverkusen will have a hard time, but Dortmund must be very unhappy to miss the victory they came so close to because they were the closest team to beat Leverkusen. After the goal they conceded in extra time, Bayer Leverkusen will continue their efforts to maintain the record.

I also believe that Xabi Alonso's current target is Leverkusen's unbeaten record which must be maintained. Because this will truly be a record to be proud of. At least, Leverkusen can handle Dortmund and become a draw. In fact, Leverkusen could have competed as is, without pushing to use their main players. because the results will not affect their position as champions of the Bundesliga. but once again, it seems like they will continue to maintain their unbeaten record. especially if they can also win the UEFA Europe League too. Although in this case, of course, Dortmund was certainly disappointed with this because they still can't take over Leipzig's position, in order to be qualified at the UCL next season. This is really a challenge for them.

Bayern Munich is in a bad situation they never had recently.
This situation of Bayern Munich is not good at all and this made the fans of this team worried about the future of Bayern Munich in Bundesliga and the Champions League. Nagelsmann got fired and Tuchel got his place and now it seems they want to get Tuchel fired from Bayern Munich because of bad performance and the bad relationship he had with some players.

In the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich can no longer do anything, what must be ensured is that they remain runners up, so that their achievements don't drop that much because they are taken over by Leverkusen. Meanwhile, the points between Bayern Munich and Suttgart are only 3 points apart, so this is still quite risky. Meanwhile, in the UCL, they also have to face Real Madrid, which will certainly be a tough and big challenge for Bayern Munich.

Every team playing against Leverkusen will have a hard time, but Dortmund must be very unhappy to miss the victory they came so close to because they were the closest team to beat Leverkusen. After the goal they conceded in extra time, Bayer Leverkusen will continue their efforts to maintain the record.

It's clear to see that Alonso and the players have ambition to finish the league with a unbeaten record. The way the played against Dortmund showed their determination, despite the result wouldn't affect their title hope. This will make their upcoming opponents being extra motivated to be the ones to end their unbeaten streak, which means their upcoming matches tougher.

Alonso needs to make decision on rotating players to avoid fatigue and injuries that could negatively affect their Europa League campaign. However, they have every reason to keep winning, because the unbeaten record will be a positive bargain for their career. It showcases their consistency and ability to perform under pressure, and they hope to attract interest from bigger european clubs to offer higher wages. It's not a secret that players as professionals want to earn bigger if they have a chance to move to a european big club, because Leverkusen is certainly not able to give them big wage.

When you really want to set a record, you don’t let even the idea of an already won league trophy get in the way. You just keep coming at it until the last fixture is done and Leverkusen have been really amazing this season. Having to come in front and actually take the Bayern Bundesliga is something I wouldn’t have believed they could come up with if this was said to me at the beginning of the season.
Dortmund haven’t been a team that could keep a lead but, they are sure to score and that’s where I find my bet with these guys, the goal market.

Alonso being the most sought out for coach, well that’s just him for the now. If he’s not given the freehand to run his team and get players that suits his style of play, he’s just going to be washed up like several others.

After the goal they conceded in extra time, Bayer Leverkusen will continue their efforts to maintain the record.

There are two competitions right now in which Dortmund has to concentrate properly.  First is the Bundesliga and second is the Champions League competition. I am not saying this in any sequence where one is more important than the other. First of all, they have to win against Leipzig in the match which is going to be played on 27 April. Secondly, they will also have to properly concentrate on the match in the Champions League which is going to be played on 2 May. They have to aim for a win in both of those matches.

Maybe they can try to get a win in the Bundesliga match and aim for a draw as the Champions League match is going to be played in two legs. But I don't think that is going to be the best decision. They are already going up against a very hungry PSG team in the Champions League. So they cannot give any chance to PSG.

Yeah the upcoming match against Stuttgart will be interesting to watch, this season both Leverkusen and Stuttgart have improved a lot among other teams in Bundesliga. I think it will end in draw, but I won't really surprised if Leverkusen lose in this match.

Isn't that great, they really don't want or can't accept being beaten by another team and in fact Leverkusen resistance has really provided clear proof of its greatness as strong team in German football.
Against Bayern Munich they managed to win and against Dortmund they held draw, in the next match there was Stuttgart which they had previously beaten as well as Leipzig.
These four team are series of strong Bundesliga teams this season but all of them can be handled well by Leverkusen, for the match against Stuttgart, I think Leverkusen will be able to win again like when they met some time ago.

But this is of no use because they already have the title, it just that if they really continue to win then Leverkusen can indirectly maintain their record and this is an record that is difficult for any team to achieve.

[HajiBagi]

Yeah actually Leverkusen are now in the final stage, and given to their currently performance i don't think they will be a team that will able to beat them now to reduce their  points. Because they have a high point in the in top standing that even thought they lose to one teams they will still claim the the tittle, since is not that they have much remaining is just a few game they have left  and although that their not a strong team I don't think they will lose to any of them.

Currently there are 4 matches left and there are several strong teams they will face. I think VfB and Frankfurt will be a challenge for them to maintain their unbeaten record.

To be honest if someone told me Leverkusen is going to end draw against Dortmund i won’t believe because it’s almost pass 90 minutes of the game, and before the game end Leverkusen score to make sure they keep their unbeaten record, this show that this team is not just want to win a trophy, they are also planning to set a record in Bundesliga league and it very good, I haven’t support any team in this league before but Leverkusen have make me support them because of their performance, the way they play, the way they touch ball and pass it to each , I just like the way they played against each team they played with.

I watch a video of xabi Alonso and the players on the field during training, he is saying that he doesn’t like a long passing and long ball, all he wants is just a touch and pass and if you watch Leverkusen game you will see that is how they played and that really help them because they play like a team that will not score goals but with the help of that touch and pass they will surely score goals that you don’t expect from them.

Exciting matches at this weekend. 6-point games between Leipzig and Dortmund as well as Mönnchengladbach vs. Union Berlin and Mainz v. Köln.
Dortmund and Leipzig are fighting for place 4 and if Leipzig would win, they would have a 5-point lead. The remaining programme is similar in terms of difficulty for both teams, so a win for Leipzig at the weekend could be enough for them to secure place 4.
Mönnchengladbach and Union Berlin are fighting against relegation as well as Mainz and Köln. So 3 points would be very important for all teams.
