Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[xzone]

It's very shameful Leverkusen lose against Werder Bremen in their own home.

I understand Xabi is prepare for a match against Bayern Munich in Champions League, but you can't just underestimate your opponent by playing with many second tier players. Xabi should use his best lineup for starting, then after they scored one or two goals, he can substitute the important players to rest.

This lose decrease their chance to win Bundesliga.

To be honest, I don't think they have a chance to win the Bundesliga anymore. Statistically, they still have a chance, we have more than 2 months to go, but it won't be easy for them to reach the top while the point difference between them has increased to 8.
Actually, it would be great for them to win 3 points in a week when Bayern Munich lost points, but they missed a big opportunity. There may not be another opportunity like this again

Dortmund were not only unlucky but also played very badly. I mean you have the dominance in your hands but still only 1 shot on target... Are you for real man?  

The summary of the game: Dortmund still can't score with 1.12 xG while Augsburg score with 0.20 xG and even win the game.

I mean they couldn't beat Lille home too and they are more likely to say goodbye to the Champions League. What now?

Dortmund faced many problems and I think what they received was quite appropriate because Dortmund did not build a good team for this season so don't expect much from Dortmund.

The defeat they received was not that surprising and I'm not even sure that Dortmund will be able to finish at the top of the final Bundesliga standings this season.

There is nothing left or no hope for Dortmund this season, in the Bundesliga they are struggling and in the Champion League of course it will be worse.

They failed to win against Lille in the first leg which was played at their home ground so don't expect much for the second leg later, Lille who will play at their home ground of course is more favored.

Indeed, Leverkusen's performance throughout this season has not been consistent and their overall strength is also not that good so it is not surprising to me when they are like this and indeed if you look at the opportunities of course there are almost no more opportunities for Leverkusen especially this week they have a great opportunity to be able to reduce the points gap but it is precisely that it cannot be utilized properly.

The defeat of Bayern Munich and also Leverkusen this week was quite surprising even though these two top teams played at home but that's football, there are many surprises that cannot be predicted and the Bundesliga this week has a lot of surprises.

You are right. We saw Leverkusen's great dominance last season. Leverkusen  dominated the Bundesliga for the entire season. And the team did not face any defeat. So we expected Leverkusen to form a stronger squad this season . But Leverkusen management was not interested in spending too much money. On the other hand, Bayern Munich is desperate  to regain the title.

Since Leverkusen  has strengthened their squad too much, the team has naturally been a bit behind in the title  race since the beginning of the season. And despite having several chances, the team could not  reduce the points gap with Munich. At the same time , Leverkusen lost to Munich by a large margin in the Champions league match. leverkusen is also going to be eliminated from the Champions League, and it is not possible for them to win the bundesliga title.

All today Bundesliga matches shocked everyone of us.  First of all Bayern loosing to Bochum which was due to the red cards Bayern got at 42 minute of the game
by J.Palhinha, it was very shocking to see how Bochum defeat Bayern in their home  Allianz Arena. Secondly Bayern Leverkusen loosing to Werder which was not very shocking to me due to Bayern Leverkusen inconsistent performance after their historic season for the past year and lastly Dortmund loosing to Augsburg which is also not so shocking to me.

Yes, it is true that yesterday's Bundesliga matches surprised us all. Because in a match held yesterday, Bayern Munich did not see the win, that is, they made a lot of effort in that match but we did not see that they had reached the port of victory properly. Likewise in another match held yesterday, Bayer Leverkusen presented the weakest performance against Werder Football team.

In those German league matches we saw each team play very badly maybe it will be right for everyone to forget those matches. But look at how badly Eintracht Frankfurt was defeated today they took an impressive lead in this match at half-time but from then on they should have been much more patient.

This defeat should not have happened, especially as Leverkusen are trying to catch up on the points deficit from Bayern Munich. I don't know if Xabi Alonso made a mistake in fielding his squad against Werder Bremen, but based on the final result, they made a big mistake that caused them to lose important points. I agree with you, Alonso should have fielded his best squad to pressure Bremen, but all decisions are in his hands, whatever happens is the result of Alonso's decision who is currently dividing his focus to UCL after being defeated by Munich in the first leg.

I believe it is this thing with most managers where they try to avoid using the A-list squad in matches they assume are not so tough or important to them. But it is also crucial for these guys to know that there's a level in which you get to during the competition, particularly when the league is coming towards its end and there's deficit in points and need to fill up such an important gap, they will require all the top players in the team to put all hands on deck so as to avoid little efforts that will downplay their chances of winning the league title. What happened with Leverkusen after losing to Bremen, I guess will be hurtful to them and their chances of propelling higher in the league's table standing.

It is indeed very embarrassing when they have to lose to a team that is not better than them, even though it happened at their own home. Even though they had the opportunity after Bayern Munich lost this week to be able to reduce the gap, but they failed to take advantage of it.
I think it really doesn't make sense when they don't maximize this match just because they will face Bayern Munich in the Champions League. Because there they are already 3 goals behind and that will make it difficult for them. This is one of the disappointing matches they have shown.

I don't expect anything better from Leverkusen this season. Leverkusen has no chance of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Leverkusen lost 3-0 in the first leg against Bayern Munich. Leverkusen has no chance of even winning the Bundesliga title.

Leverkusen has had several opportunities to reduce the points gap. Munich lost their last match. If Leverkusen had won against Bremen, Munich would have been only 5 points behind. But Leverkusen's performance has been quite inconsistent. For this reason, it will not be possible for the team to win the Bundesliga title.

I remember someone writing before this round that Dortmund is back  But in reality, everything is absolutely the same, today they couldn't even score one point and ended up in 10th place. Considering that there are fewer and fewer rounds left until the end, the chances of getting into the European Cups are melting very quickly.
The results of Bayern and Bayer are less surprising as the clubs are firmly in their positions in the standings and are now focused more on the Champions League.

This season has been a very tedious one for Borussia Dortmund and considering their current position I don't think things would get any better and it seems a chance to play in any of the European competitions is in view for the Dortmund side. Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen had a very bad day at the office yesterday and would be looking forward to bouncing back as soon as possible but it was quite a good one for Bayern Munich because the Leverkusen side also suffered a defeat too so there isn't much to worry for Bayern.

[ITExpert]

Yesterday was a really funny day in the Bundesliga... Leverkusen lost to Werder, Dortmund lost to Augsburg and even Bayern lost to Bochum in the most dramatic way... All these clubs are playing in the UCL soon, so it was possible to bet against the favourites in these matches... Leipzig by the way also could not beat Freiburg away and as usual did not score a goal...

This match was very disappointing because Leverkusen's strength and performance is quite good and strong, but even after losing the match by 2 goals, few people expected it because they had high hopes, which were reduced by Leverkusen's poor performance.These matches will be played very badly, it will affect the strong teams of this league, they should play well and keep interest in this league.Because the teams that have lost matches in this league are the most interesting and hopeful because their performance and hard work in the season is quite good and high.Both these teams let people down when they could have scored enough goals because they are not weak but they were weakened which made them unable to succeed themselves.

In fact this round was catastrophic for all teams sitting in the first half of the table except Mainz which defeated M'Gladbach, otherwise all the others had terrible results starting from Bayern Munich having their worst nightmare, a comeback from Bochum after they were two goals in advance. The red card taken by Palhinha made their day worst. Bayer Leverkusen weren't any lucky, they were trashed by Werder Bremen by two goals since the beginning of the game. Otherwise Union Berlin had also a comeback against Eintracht Frankfurt..

And we had that discussion about the adversaries, they were against it, remember?
They made all those gains against teams that were on the last places, the moment they meet with even middle tier teams they start to sweat, and what's next for them is close to a nightmare, 4 top 6 teams in 4 matches.

Anyhow, nobody really cares about Dortmund anymore.

What Bayern and Bayer did this round was, how can I say it, an onslaught on bettors, so here is the recap for the round:
Bayern , 1.17 fav , loss
Bayer,  1.33 fav , loss
Dortmund , 1.40 fav , loss
Stuttgart, 1.50 fav , draw

If someone could have predicted the winners and draws in Bundesliga this round, the parlay was 2898630
Yes, $1 to $3 million!

If Mainz were actually contending for the title and had similar points with either Bayer Leverkusen or Bayern Munich then it would have been very much interesting for Mainz who got all 3 points against Monchengladbach but that isn't the case so Bayern still do not have anything to worry about but to focus on their champions league game because they are still on the right path to clinching the bundesliga title this season and only need to be focused and also try to reduce the number of goals they concede because they seem to conceding a lot this season.

I don't know why it happened at the same time in the Bundesliga, even though all the players of the three teams were in good condition but were unable to win the match although it might not have much effect on the Munich team because the team is still sitting so sweetly at the top of the Bundesliga standings. But still it has invited a sense of wonder in most people after seeing the results of the three matches played by the three teams, namely Munich, Leverkusen and Dortmund.

Bayer Leverkusen missed an opportunity. Because Bayern Munich lost at home. You only see that once or twice during the season. This surprise defeat was a chance for Bayern Leverkusen to get closer to their opponent, but it was meaningless after they lost in Leverkusen. Borussia Dortmund's defeat didn't surprise me. Borussia Dortmund has been in a bad form this year and they can suffer defeats like this. This result didn't surprise me, but the defeats against Leverkusen and Bayern Munich surprised me a lot.

Leverkusen has themselves to be blamed because in a week where bayern munich dropped points at home it was an opportunity to win and close in on the point difference between them and bayern munich but unfortunately they dropped points and everything is the same at the table in the first and second spot on the league table, I think Alonso is starting lose the dressing room in Leverkusen because he is fund of dropping his strikers in important matches.


As for Bayarn Munich I have seen this losing coming so far because they have been winning games but in terms of play and performance they have been poor and with the way am seeing they can't go far with this pattern of play in the champions League even if they get it over Leverkusen at this stage of the competition

Bayer Leverkusen could not recover after losing to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. We saw this in the Bundesliga and they surprisingly lost the match. Bayern Munich received a red card and I can accept this defeat because they played poorly on the field, but I cannot say the same for Leverkusen. Leverkusen should have definitely won the three points and they did not. Therefore, the real criticism should be given to Bayer Leverkusen for losing the three points. It seems that we can already say that Bayern Munich is the champion this year.

[Slow death]

It seems that we can already say that Bayern Munich is the champion this year.

There are still many games left and in these many games that are left Bayern will play against very difficult opponents, I'm talking about Dortmund who may be very good but when they play against Bayern they will be very motivated to win, Mainz who beat Bayern in the game in December last year, and lastly there's Leipzig.

So I see that Bayern still has a long way to go to become champion. But I hope that next season this Bayern squad will be much improved, it's weak in my opinion.

I never thought Bayern Munich would lose this game since their opponents are not having a good time in the Bundesliga. The red card changed the course of the game, and Vincent Kompany was not able to devise a means to hold VfL Bochum and at least get a draw. Some experienced coaches would have held that game since the visitors were not that strong. This loss has reduced the gap between them and Bayer Leverkusen to eight. Maybe Bayern's focus in the second leg is the UCL, so we might see the best in them this week.

There is an eight point difference between Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich. If Leverkusen continues to lose points like this, Bayern Munich will probably win the championship, but there are nine games left and they lost the match they played in, despite having to win all of them to win the championship. There is no sign of Leverkusen, who had an extraordinary performance last year, this year. I cannot understand how Leverkusen, who expected Bayern Munich to lose points, could lose points so easily.

The point difference with Bayer Leverkusen was already eight. When Bayer Leverkusen lost to Werder Bremen, the point difference remained at eight again. It was a very strange coincidence that both teams in the Bundesliga championship race lost their matches this week. This opportunity will not come again for Bayer Leverkusen. The countdown for the championship has now begun and there are nine remaining fixtures. Bayern Munich will win the championship if they do not make a mistake. If Bayer Leverkusen had won their match and reduced the point difference to five points, then we could have talked about different things.

That is a certainty, this was the one and only chance for Leverkusen to make it look a bit closer again, but as you can see Bayern can afford to lose against Bochum at home this season and it goes without consequences for them. That is the level of the Bundesliga in 24/25.

Alonso is now losing some of the credit he gained over his tenure in Leverkusen. A bad game in the Champions League and now bad games in the Bundesliga, if he had been able to come up with another massive victory in one of the competitions, his value would have increased further as a coach. He can still win the DFB Pokal though, which isn't nothing. But getting past Bayern in the Champions League would have been a huge victory.
