Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Razmirraz]

The DFB match was between Bayern Munich and Leipzig. After 30 minutes, they were both still without a goal. However, as usual, Bayern Munich dominated the game and created more chances than their opponents. Harry Kane remained the top scorer in this cup, narrowly ahead of Christoph Boumgartner.

Finally, Bayern Munich managed to qualify for the DFB POKAL semifinals. Goals from Harry Kane and Díaz in the second half saw Bayern Munich beat RB Leipzig. This victory also smoothed Die Roten path to the semifinals, following rivals Leverkusen, Stuttgart, and Freiburg. The Munich players were outstanding in the second half, Manuel Neuer shining when needed, Michael Olise again provided an assist. As expected, Harry Kane managed to score in this match, an additional goal made him even more solid as the top scorer in the DFB Pokal with 6 goals, now Kompany still has a chance to win it all with Bayern Munich.

I doubt if Kane would be able to score up to 40 goals in a season but it's possible, he's a hardworking player and has already scored up to 100 goals plus in all competitions at Bayern Munich but he's yet to score up to 100 goals in Bundesliga, i believe he'll achieve that before the end of this season if he works hard enough cause he's already scored 86 goals and just have 14 left to make it 100. Kane's Champions league goal record is really impressive, he could score up to 10 or more this season if Bayern Munich go far in the competition. As for Haaland he's another high profiled striker that can be compared to Kane and Lewandowski but his form really dropped this season and it's surprising.

This is what I believe about them in the UCL as well. They are looking great and while we do not get to see them play against teams that are closer to their level that commonly and we still remember that UCL game they lost, we need to remember they are doing a wonderful job and look great.

So unless they have a bad day, they are good enough to beat any team on their good day. The problem is that, you do not have your best game all the time, so you depend on luck and since UCL is a knock out type of thing, one bad day equals to being out. So if you want to win UCL, you need to have good days back to back for many rounds and that's normally not that easy and we can definitely end up being not that great at all.

In the first half Bayern Munich had actually better ball possession than Leipzig. And Munich tried several attacks that threatened Leipzig's defense and even their goal. But unfortunately Bayern Munich was unable to score a goal despite having good opportunities. In the second half Bayern Munich increased their pressure on Leipzig. And I personally think that this pressure caused Munich's ball possession to decrease compared to the first half. In the second half Harry Kane scored a goal after Leipzig fouled Stanistic in the penalty box. And shortly after that Luiz Diaz scored a beautiful goal from a lovely assist by Olise. The score remained 2-0 until the referee blew the whistle to signal the end of the match. It was unfortunate for Leipzig because they were eliminated from this important cup competition. However Bayern Munich always seems to dominate every match against RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga. I personally believe that Munich will gain more confidence after this victory. And I'm sure that Bayern Munich is ready to face their next opponent in the semifinals with a winning mentality.

Hertha's odds were nearly the same as Freiburg's in the DFB Pokal game and they prove it why right away. Freiburg struggled a lot and barely managed to eliminate a 2nd league team by penalties...

Bayern Munich just did what was expected from them. Now we are waiting for the semi final draw. I think they will finally win this cup after 5 years. I don't think any of Leverkusen, Stuttgart or Freiburg can stop them from that.

[changaa]

Fans would always want comparison just to create an agenda, they're both young lads that are doing well in various ways and their stats are impressive. I'm very happy that the Messi/Ronaldo debate has ended and I won't like a Yamal and Olise debate to start from where the other two legends stopped . Yamal future is very bright likewise Olise too they're both working very hard to have a better career and be the best in future.

Challenges have always existed in any sport and in football they are certainly much more marked, Messi and Ronaldo is a challenge that will never happen again, and everyone knows this, they are trying to put new players in comparison but the reality is that there will no longer be a dualism at that level that excites people so much.

[cande86]

Actually, the rivalry between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi made football incredibly enjoyable. Right now, I don't see two players who can offer a similar level of competition. Yamal is a very talented player, we can't deny that, but he's not at the level of Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo. Olise is having a fantastic season and has contributed a lot to Bayern Munich. Instead of these kinds of arguments, I think it would be more appropriate to focus on his game and make comments accordingly.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are two incredible players and i don't know if we could see them again, but this is something we enjoyed and it's over now there are other players who deserve the attention of the football world, but there will never be a dualism like this and I'm more than convinced of this.

I think the most interesting thing here is that Bayern Munich hasn't won this cup since the 2019-2020 season. After all, Bayern Munich has dominated the league for years; nobody is stronger than them. However, for some reason, they always make mistakes in cup matches in Germany and lose.

Looking at their performance over the last five years, we see they haven't come close to winning the cup. I think this season will change things, and I agree with you that they have high potential to become champions

[stompix]

@stompix DFB Pokal is about to start and I thought I'd have a look at the odds. Now RB Leipzig is a difficult case as they have been beaten up by Bayern this season so badly...

But if anything I think the "to qualify" odds for Leipzig aren't too bad @6.60. It leaves all options on the table if 90 minutes end in a draw. I think it's pretty high because the spread between this choice and straight win is only 2.40 (9.00 for regular win). I can imagine that under some weird circumstances this goes into overtime and then maybe penalties. Unlikely, but do the odds justify taking a shot for you?

Neah, no way I would have taken that bet!
There is a difference in Bayern losing a game out of 34 and a game in which you lose, you're out!
The only bet I'm going to place till the match with Dortmund (which I will stay out of it) is again over 4 with Frankfurt, maybe even 4.5.

I honestly think we need a serius match (not baised with a red card) to truly see what's happening with Bayern, it's really a downgrade from past performace or it's just a team that sees no challenges and takes things way too easily ending up losing points.
Now Frankfurt is the perfect victim here, the team that has got more goals than almost all teams in the Bundesliga apart from Heidenheim and the best scorer in the Bundesliga!

[banana33]

You need to understand that stats in football means everything. This is why you see some players act stingy on the ball to get goals or make assist is very important especially for a forward player.

The comparison currently between Lamin Yamal and Michael Olise is irrelevant. Olise have great stats in his career, from Crystal Palace before he moved to Bayern Munich. He has better experience and is matured which makes him a better winger to Lamine Yamal. However, no doubt Yamal is a good talent and of course he will do better than Olise. When it gets to that point, we all know who we will choose but for now, I will take Olise over Yamal.

However, statistics in football are not everything. Having playmakers in your team who allow you to win matches is very important and you cannot calculate this with statistics. Data is useful but if there are events that change everything, you can no longer predict it, and we know this well.

It was an exciting match with both teams giving their best although the match ultimately ended as predicted with Muchen winning. However, Leipzig deserves credit for their tough resistance.

In the first half Leipzig remained focused] maintaining pressure and maintaining discipline in defense resulting in a goalless first half. Starting the second half Kompany began to realize the need for a change in strategy and Bayern broke the deadlock through Kane penalty in the 64th minute. It didn't take long for Muchen to score another goal three minutes later through Diaz. So in my opinion, this was a very tight match especially since Leipzig fought back and even scored despite a VAR disallowed goal.

Bayern deserved the win because Kompany changes were successful in the second half. It could be said that the difference in this match was effectiveness and Muchen succeeded in doing so. This victory opens up the opportunity for Bayern Munich to win the DFB Pokal title which they have not won for a long time last winning this trophy in 2020.

Success defeating RB Leipzig make Bayern Munich become the fourth team qualifying to the semifinal round after Bayern Leverkusen, VfB Stuttgart and SC Freiburg already qualified. Last night, Bayern Munich playing well and more dominance against RB Leipzig but two goals scoring by Harry Kane and Luiz Diaz score at the second half match after difficulty make goal in the first half match.

Seems the semifinal of DFB Pokal Cup still not drawing yet and regarding the semifinal teams participants I am expecting to watch the final match Bayern Munich vs Bayern Leverkusen, however both team has opportunity will face at the semifinal round depend the drawing. Seeing the participants teams left without underestimate the other teams no doubt favorable Bayern Munich will be the DFB Pokal Cup wnner.

I don't like these teams and i think Leipzig will never make it in life, i don't think they can manage to win and qualify, even if its true that the odds are literally tempting, i would play it just to try to bet and do something crazy because that's what it is, but who knows, it could work.

I'm still back here to laugh at football fans and posters who called Harry Kane cursed when he first came to Bayern Munich.
He was outstanding last night, not just as a striker but a midfielder and also defender if you saw the game lol. Vincent Kompany has transformed him into something we've never seen. He was responsible for the spot kick duties and Luis Diaz with that beautiful touch pass the goalkeeper to give them the security goal. Leipzig weren't bad but Bayern Munich was quite direct and meant business.

I have a problem with you saying managed to win, it’s as though they struggled to win the match or they played against a very tough opponent. I will have you know they have an aggregate score of 13:1 against RB Leipzig this season and Kane has been scoring goals for fun in Germany both the league and cup matches. So using managed doesn’t fit the description at all.
If another team happens to win Bayern then you can say they managed to…… lol
This is the kind of argument I’ll make in a viewing center 🤣

[MAAManda]

After Bayern Munich's win over RB Leipzig, we now have 4 teams going to the semifinals, they're Bayer Leverkusen, Stuttgart, Freiburg & Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich hasn't won this competition for a long time, since 5 last seasons. Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen & Stuttgart won the previous two editions. Do you think this time it's Bayern Munich's turn to win the competition? or will we see another surprise like Freiburg?

Freiburg this season is not good, so it is not strange for them to be matched by a second division team, I think they can reach the semi-finals that is enough for them at this time, because we know that Freiburg is not that good, even the penalty shootout was only a 1 goal difference, and now their opponents are Bayern Munich, Leverkusen and Stuttgart, those are teams that are on average consistently better in the Bundesliga than the other teams, they should stop hoping starting today and be grateful to be able to reach the semi-finals.

[jakdanyel]

There was no surprise with the DFB Pokal results (except Freiburg's struggle). Now we are back onto the Bundesliga...

This week's matches:



Dortmund have been winning for 5 weeks. I guess they wouldn't have any trouble against Mainz either. Actually I can't say I liked their effort against Wolfsburg. But I expect them to improve it tomorrow.

Bayern Munich should move on with another win. Bremen isn't that of a challenge. I think another big win is on the way.

Looks like Munich will most likely grab the title this season. If you look at their mentality and how prepared they are, it feels like they’re seriously aiming to be a treble winner again. Honestly, the bundesliga already seems like it’s in their pocket. From the start of the season until now, they’ve been super consistent in every competition. They just look too strong compared to the rest.

So, big chance they’ll push for the DFB Pokal too, and after that go all in for the UCL. Sounds pretty realistic to me.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Instead of comparing these two players, I think it would be more appropriate to talk about the Bundesliga. If we compare the goals scored by Harry Kane, who currently carries the goalscoring burden for Bayern Munich, and Mbappé, I think the English striker is more effective for his team and plays a game that makes it easier for them to score goals. Bayern Munich is very lucky to have him because his experience provides a great advantage to the young players at Bayern Munich. I think he will soon win the top scorer title this year with a record number of goals. Hopefully, we can watch him until the end of the season without any injuries.

Yes , I agree with you, both players are very good. In Kane's case, we see that he has excelled and scored some fantastic goals, and with respect to Mbappé, well, it changes a bit because La Liga seems to have much more competition The rivalry between Barcelona and Madrid alone is enough to put the focus there. I have high hopes that Mbappé can make a difference for the rest of the season.

Among the 4 teams that made it to the semi finals, Bayern Munich is still the strongest team among them but since it's been years since they last won it if they get to the finals this time it could be another opportunity for them to win it to increase their title this season. It's just an imagination because it's possible for them to be eliminated in the semi finals but if they get to the finals having their complete squad they stand a better chance to win  against the other teams as they remain the best team in the league and losing in the finals will nut be the best they want to achieve their season.
