Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Agbe]

What I just observed from the match is that it’s not going to be easy for Dortmund to just win the match easily. However, Dortmund has good chances of winning the match as they are in better form, and they are looking for a way to enter the top four so that they can qualify for next season's Champions League. The reason why I have confidence in Dortmund is that they will be the hosts of the game, and they will put in extra effort to win it. This is important because Holstein Kiel won against Dortmund in the first leg, and I think the reason that happened was because Dortmund's focus was on the Champions League. But now that they are out of the Champions League, their performance has seriously improved. So, I’m not expecting them to lose the match to Holstein Kiel or draw, given their current form.

Leverkusen made it difficult for Dortmund to achieve victory but I saw Dortmund never stop fighting to create opportunities. Even though they lost in the dominance of the match, Dortmund had a number of accurate chances to score goals so that Leverkusen could not avoid defeat from Dortmund in the match. But unfortunately in one remaining match it was not able to help Dortmund qualify for the Champions League if Freiburg managed to beat Frankfurt even though the chance is still open because Frankfurt is much better than Freiburg.

Dortmund beating Leverkusen was a step ahead of them ending top 4 in the league left with 1 match to determine where they end up. If Dortmund can successfully win Holstein Kiel in the last game of this season what they wish for is SC Freiburg to lose or draw, SC Freiburg will be playing against Eintracht Frankfurt who are 3rd place also competing in this final game to qualify for Champions League, they can't go easy on SC Freiburg, that last game will determine for this three teams who makes it out of the leading top 4.

With the late form of Borussia Dortmund, I don't see Holstein Kiel traveling to Borussia Dortmund's home to earn a point because they are not fighting to survive in the Bundesliga league; they are already relegated to the lower division of German football. Borussia Dortmund has more goals than Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga this season, so Eintracht Frankfurt needs to avoid losing to Freiburg if they want to book a spot in next season's UEFA Champions League competition. If Eintracht Frankfurt loses to Freiburg and Borussia Dortmund beats Holstein Kiel, Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt will tie in points, and Borussia Dortmund could finish ahead of Eintracht Frankfurt with goal difference.

Dortmund is in a very good form and is at the verge of qualifying for the champions League so it will be difficult for any team playing against Dortmund to get results at this stage of the competition i don't see Dortmund dropping points before the end of the season

All the chances to stop Dortmund from winning did not work so this is more reason why experience is actually a good tool because if you look at it there is no way that Dortmund would have given them a easy win so there is a lot more why we need to be very careful when you are placing a bet.

And even if Dortmund are not doing to well you can not over underestimate them so there is enough reasons for you to actually not to play with them because the game ended 4:2 and Dortmund did not show any weakness at all so there is enough reasons for to play smart. And the game of Freiburg beating Frankfurt is not a big deal.

That's true they are already guaranteed a place in the champions League so Leverkusen is not too serious about getting results again this season the truth of the matter is that Leverkusen was not lucky because things where not working for them right from the beginning of the season

Seriously, Bayer Leverkusen was not lucky in this match against Dortmund. If not, they also tried their best to win the match, but unfortunately they were not lucky to get that. Although what I understand in this match was that Dortmund used the expletive they had to win this match; if not, we all saw Bayer Leverkusen was performing and it wasn’t bad.

But we all know what football can do, so I think that is what happened; they were not lucky to win the match. However, as you said, Bayer Leverkusen have not been in their best form from the beginning of this season, so that is another reason why we should not put too much expectation on them this season.

One more game for Borussia Dortmund to see if they will make it to the Champions League next season or they will have to settle for Europa league and this will mainly depend on if Frankfurt will be able to defeat Frieburg or at least draw them. I more positive that Dortmund will beat Holstein Kiel in their next game. So far Borussia Dortmund and Frieburg has had equal records in their last 5 matches, 4 wins and a draw, although the last time Frieburg lost was against this very Dortmund in a 4 - 1 defeat. Dortmund will be hoping for Frankfurt to do them a favour and I seriously hope Frankfurt does it for them because I want to see Dortmund in the Champions League next season.

I assume Dortmund will finish in the top four of the Bundesliga, even if they have to rely on Eintracht Frankfurt. I think it would be very disappointing to see last season finalists fail to return to the Champions League next season. Holstein Kiel is an easy opponent for Dortmund to overcome, I predict the chances of an upset are very slim.

Dortmund first half of the season has had a very bad run of form, and so far they have suffered 11 defeats. Luckily they still have a chance to break into the top four. If Dortmund are ambitious to be title contenders next season, they must overhaul their squad depth and stop selling star players.

The fate of Dortmund qualifying for next season's Champions League is 100 percent in the hands of Frankfurt, for them I don't think Holstein Kiel will be a problem for as they can easily see them off with a win. If we track back to this Dortmund team, as we all know it, they had a bad run of form in the first half of the season and also in the early stages of the second half. There was a point in time were they were in 10th position and it wasn't even too long they started getting back to winning ways after the sack of Nuri Sahin. Even if they don't make it to the UCL next, for me considering how they were initially I would say they've done well. There's still hope for them but if it doesn't happen, they still tried.

Dortmund is in a state of uncertainty as they await the results of other teams' matches to determine their hopes of playing in the champions league and dortmund must also win in the last match. Dortmund efforts so far have been quite good with consecutive wins but this season they have to work hard compared to the previous season which was so easy to secure a ticket to the champions league.

If they fail, Of course the fans will be disappointed because dortmund always managed to close the season in the top 4 but this season their hopes have not been realized before the end of the season.

it's true that Dortmund  needs results from other teams to go their way in hope of qualifying for the champions League but they can't put their hopes on other teams so Dortmund has to win all their remaining matches so that the chances of them qualifying will be more sure

Leverkusen conceded four goals from Borussia Dortmund. Borussia Dortmund is still claiming the Champions League. All their claims are down to the last match and they will play Kiel, who were relegated from the league, in the last match. I think they will win against them, but the important thing is whether the Freiburg match ends with a loss of points. They will play Frankfurt in the last match and they have no choice but to win this match. If they lose against Frankfurt, Dortmund can take the Champions League place from them. Considering this threat, I definitely expect Freiburg to win in the last match.

Bayer Leverkusen didn't show sign of seriousness in the game because they had qualified for next season's Champions League competition while Dortmund is the team that needed the 3 points so that they can continue their fight for the qualification of champions League, Dortmund winning their last match this weekend will give them more chances of finishing among the top4 while they hope for Freiburg to lose their game so that they will finish ahead of them.

The fate of Borussia Dortmund playing in next season's UEFA Champions League competition is in their own hands and not in the hands of Eintracht Frankfurt, the reason being that if Freiburg wins against Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund wins against Holstein Kiel, Borussia Dortmund will enter the 4th position in the Bundesliga league table because they have more goals forward than Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga, which will be used to judge Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt if they tie on equal points. Borussia Dortmund just needs to beat Holstein Kiel to qualify for the UEFA Champions League.

Bundesliga games are entertaining and competitive at the same time. Bayer Leverkusen couldn't hold and bear the mounting pressure of Borruisa Dortmund in previous meetings, we both know how important that game was for Dortmund. They did everything within their reach to ensure they sealed three good winning points against the hosts. What more could we expect other from watching how these clubs have fought and not been able to dominate Bundesliga this season?

Bayer Leverkusen are also struggling to stand strong despite their low standards in games this season. The man behind the triump and success of the club, Xabi Alonso is exiting the club and going to join Real Madrid at the end of the season, what do you expect the players to play in this particular game? Their morale is low because Alonso is one of the masterminds in the club who calls the hits around here.

Dortmund beating Leverkusen was a step ahead of them ending top 4 in the league left with 1 match to determine where they end up. If Dortmund can successfully win Holstein Kiel in the last game of this season what they wish for is SC Freiburg to lose or draw, SC Freiburg will be playing against Eintracht Frankfurt who are 3rd place also competing in this final game to qualify for Champions League, they can't go easy on SC Freiburg, that last game will determine for this three teams who makes it out of the leading top 4.

Dortmund's chances of finishing the season in fourth place are very big but it really depends on Freiburg's match against Frankfurt. Dortmund's struggle this season is not easy because they have lost consistency and fighting to get a ticket to the Champions League will be determined by Freiburg's fate in their last match. This looks like a big setback experienced by Dortmund because usually they always easily qualify for the Champions League but it is very different this season because until the last match Dortmund has not been able to determine whether or not they qualify for the Champions League next season.

[Pandu Geddon]

I think there will definitely be some comings and goings in the summer transfer. Kompany must also be thinking about strengthening his team and is not satisfied with this result alone. Because in reality, they are struggling to compete with the strong teams in the Champions League. Kompany will definitely prepare it this summer, and maybe some more in the winter next year.

Based on Bayern Munich's standard, one trophy ia not a good success. They missed Champions League, German Cup and the German Super Cup and secured just the Bundesliga. Vincent Kompany's main task now is to do a comprehensive analysis of all the players in the club and those on loan. He wiuld have to identify players he wants and those that might not be relevant or his plans. He has to convince important players to remain in the club, as there are reports that Harry Kane might be considering moving back to the English Premier League.  Then he also needs to target new players and allow others who are not part of his plan for next season to leave.

Munich is not completely bad with the Bundesliga trophy this season. They did not get any other trophy, but they got the Bundesliga trophy back after losing it last season. Even with Leverkusen's very strong advantage. Kompany has a big job to prepare for next season. He must have a difficult choice to keep his current players and bring in some new ones for next season. He is the coach and he will have an assessment of each of his players. Next season might be more difficult for him.

[Abbatty]

Leverkusen just didn't care, not like Frankfurt will catch up to them so they knew that even if they lost ,they would do fine and not care. Xabi is gone too, not sure how much he would care, and it's said that Wirtz is going to City, to replace KDB, which is a great move for City.

Basically the team is already done and they do not care anymore. If any team plays like that, then they would not do a great job. We should not expect them to do anything great, and that is why they are going to end up with bad results. Focus on what this team can do next season without Xabi and Wirtz, that would be the only thing that matters. If they can do that, it would make a lot more sense and could get a terrible result next season when they have both of them missing.

They must be really heartbroken losing their coach Xabi Alonso and also losing their best player Wirtz. They should've known that they can't keep them for long and expect them to leave soon, I am sure they are not the only ones they will lose, I am certain they will lose more players. And they might not do much next season except they have another talented coach to continue the works of Alonso.
There is no way for them to not make the champions league and the gap between them is much so Losing is nothing anymore. Dortmund is currently in form they are just doing everything possible to try and qualify for the champions league I hope they do.

[SmartCharpa]

Are you guys seeing the table, Frankfurt has 57 points, Freiburg has 55 point, Dortmund  has 55 and Mainz 51, if Frankfurt wins, it means they'll retain their spot as 3rd place if they draw they'll still retain their spot but if they lose then they could miss the top four if they fail to score multiple goals like 5-6, do you think the score line of 7-6 or 8-6 between Freiburg and Frankfurt could happen, yes it's possible but chances are very slim. As for Dortmund, winning Kiel is not a big deal but they shouldn't underate them cause their's a possibility that Kiel could draw even though Dortmund are favourites, infact Dortmund has to win and hope that either Frankfurt or Freiburg lose for them to qualify, if Freiburg lose their's hope, if they win their's still hope for Dortmund, since they could qualify by goal aggregate if they win Kiel.

It will be a difficult battle from spots 3 to 7, as each team is trying to qualify for the next European competitions with only 1 game remaining. But how is it possible with only one game remaining this season? Dortmund wasted opportunities from the start of the season by losing against weak teams, I did not expect them to move close to the top four because Leipzig was in the position, but they have also dropped back due to a lack of consistency.

Dortmund only hope to qualify is that Freiburg will face Frankfurt, and both teams will not want to lose, so the best option is for either side to win to maintain their place.  However, Dortmund lost their previous match against Kiel 4-2, Kiel is the club that was promoted this season, so Dortmund should not underestimate them, otherwise, Kiel will give them a surprise result since they are a stubborn team.

I don't think that terms like heartbroken apply here. In this business everyone knows how it works when a player players a great season or a coach has outstanding success in his first years of his career like Xabi Alonso. The time is ticking then and the question is only whether it takes one season or two seasons until they are gone when they are working for a club that is not quite among the best in the world, but slightly below that level.

Alonso's path was almost set in stone after they had this record season 23/24 and Wirtz with 31 scorer points in 44 games, of course he was about to leave.

After a season like this, a coach like Alonso and great players like Wirtz realize that being successful repeatedly is not likely to happen with Leverkusen because the will come when these teams will fall apart as offers from outside are too compelling. That is why these players they to find the right timing and this has certainly come for Wirtz. Alonso is doing the right thing because what should he be waiting for?

I am curious whether this will snowball and more players now plan to leave the club after they have now become aware that some of the most important people in the club are on the run.

Dortmund will want Frankfurt to win. That would mean Dortmund goes to fourth place and goes to UCL, and that shows Nuri Sahin was the problem because they were like 10th and now they are fighting for fourth spot. If they can do that then they are going to be happy with fourth place.

If they can do a good job, they won't matter that much and would be happy to do it, we need to make sure that they can do what they are allowed to do and they should focus on making this a reality. If they can reach fourth place, that would be lovely. On the other hand, if Frankfurt loses, that would mean, there is a very low chance Dortmund will be in fourth place, so at least a tie in that game is a lot better and they should reach that level. Freiburg could win, and they have to win for their sake.

Leverkusen lost their truck before Xabi Alonso left the club. Leverkusen lost their home match 4-2. The match was dominated by Leverkusen's players. But even then they conceded 4 goals. Leverkusen lost this match because of bad defense. It doesn't seem that Leverkusen will compete for the title next season after losing Xabi Alonso.



Dortmund had a total of only 9 shots in this match. On the other hand, Leverkusen's players had 19 shots. Even then, Dortmund's players were able to score 4 goals.
However, Dortmund's overall performance was organized. We have seen worse performances from Dortmund at the beginning of this season. The team was behind the Bundesliga table for a long time. However, now Dortmund is fighting to enter the Champions League zone

I am curious whether this will snowball and more players now plan to leave the club after they have now become aware that some of the most important people in the club are on the run.

Alonso will always be in the hearts of Bayer Leverkusen fans, and after leaving for Spain at the end of the season to coach Real Madrid, I am sure that one day he will return to Leverkusen and its fans.

Bayern Leverkusen has shown extraordinary performance, both this season and the previous season. And thanks to their good performance, now some players like Wirtz have quite a large market value. On the one hand, it would be a shame if Bayer Leverkusen players had to run to other clubs, because this could be a factor in the decline in Bayer Leverkusen's performance for the next season. But on the other hand, this is also a momentum for the team to be able to gain profit in order to maintain the stability of the team's financial condition.

[Roseline492]

It will be a difficult battle from spots 3 to 7, as each team is trying to qualify for the next European competitions with only 1 game remaining. But how is it possible with only one game remaining this season? Dortmund wasted opportunities from the start of the season by losing against weak teams,

Is a serious and hard battle between them but however the best among them will seat were others will not but we would also try to no between all this clubs who might make it well, so we can start from their possibilities and what they might offer and also knowing if the club on the current place will be small for not defending their stand, we have Eintracht Frankfurt which happens to be a reliable club, and this is a last match that can't be played with some perfect players on the bench, so is something a club will use as symbol of a flashback when they would be starting new season. Between them and Freiburg, Eintracht Frankfurt will be first but however if goes like this it will now endanger Freiburg because they will not have strength on them again as Borussia Dortmund will be using it for another champions League opportunity.

Supported. Vincent Kompany Winning just the Bundesliga for Bayern Munich this season is a great achievement for him and to Bayern Munich this is because this is the first season for Vincent Kompany as the manager and he took over when Bayern Munich was struggling as they lost their position to Leverkusen last season but he's arrival has given them the opportunity to be ahead and reclaim back the top spot in the league.

Vincent Kompany is building a good team from the performance of his team I doubt if the players will be eager to leave the team since they are in a good position to compete in the European league next season and they are also comfortable in the league as champions.

[Lafu]

Bayer Leverkusen are also struggling to stand strong despite their low standards in games this season.

To be honest i dont think that it was the fault of Leverkusen really , the other Teams just learned from last season to play against them.
For sure there was some games played that they should be won.
On top of that i guess its hard to say that they have struggling when you get the second place in the German League.

Leverkusen lost their home match 4-2. The match was dominated by Leverkusen's players. But even then they conceded 4 goals.
Leverkusen lost this match because of bad defense. It doesn't seem that Leverkusen will compete for the title next season after losing Xabi Alonso.

I agree that it will be hard for Leverkusen next season after what kind of players will be leave the Club after this season.
But maybe we will see something new and better as they will be getting a lot money from that they can get new good players , who know.

[Slow death]

Unfortunately, the situation of VfL Bochum and Holstein Kiel will not change even in this last round, they are officially relegated, mathematically it has become impossible for them to remain in the Bundesliga. The funny thing about this is that St. Pauli, who I did not have high expectations of surviving in the Bundesliga this season, have managed at least so far to ensure that they remain in the Bundesliga next season and in the next game will be against Bochum, which I believe St. Pauli will win or draw.
