Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Pulsar77]

The Hoffenheim - Stuttgart game is nearly ending right now. And Hoffenheim are still in the lead by 2-1. And in fact, the way that the game was going changed completely in the last minutes. Stuttgart were ahead by 1-0 but Hoffenheim scored two goals in five minutes and got ahead suddenly. They were already the favourite team as for winning this one. But I assume that not many people were expecting them to have this much difficulty. Anyway, it wouldn't cause any problem for Hoffenheim as long as they make it to the win.

Damn it , what a crazy game today as i was looking on the result in the 60 Minute and thought ok another friday game i am wrong.
And now i was looking there again and surprise Hoffenheim managed to score 2 goals in 5 Minutes and won against Stuttgart.
First friday match for weeks where my bet was right lol .

That's right, once Bayern Munich played and dropped points, teams close to them actually followed in their footsteps by dropping points as well.
They really have no equal competition. Even if there is maybe only Dortmund, but it can be seen whether Dortmund has the ambition to win? I don't think so, they are still comfortable with creating star players and after that make a profit by selling them.

By the way, this strategy is followed by Arsenal, and as far as I know, its shareholders are completely satisfied. On the one hand, this is not very good, on the other hand, it is much better than, for example, having achievements like Barcelona, but at the same time having the same huge debts. But Bayern manage to have both money and titles 

Because indeed this is still profitable for them rather than busy chasing and competing for titles, I think this is indeed a strategy for them as well to make their finances stable and indeed this is quite good even though among fans this will not be something good.
Bayern's dominance will not be dammed and they are aware of this so that they make a new strategy even though they don't get the title but they get more money from the results of their shining players.

Hoffenheim finally won that very tough match against Stuttgart. It was so difficult that they hardly came back from being 1-0 behind in the last five minutes before the stoppage time. Stuttgart tried to defeat them again like they did before. But they didn't succeed this time. And this win has carried Hoffenheim to the fourth position in the standings temporarily. Leipzig might feel some pressure over themselves but I still believe in them to defeat Bochum away this Sunday. But they must play carefully as Bochum destroyed Bayern Munich by 4-2 home.

Many strong german teams are falling behind in performance and they have difficulties showing results even in the bundesliga last season it was shalke and this season wolfsburg and gladbach even bayern are struggling to win their games despite the large win today they played a terrible first half and they lost countless times already.

Are you sure you write about Bayern Munich? True, they lost 3 or 4 games very poorly, but Bayern is not playing badly. It is definitely one of the best clubs in the world, so what you wrote is very damaging about them. Poor matches can hit anyone. Today Bayern slept in the first half, but in the second half they showed what they can do.

I would say that he is right about Bayern Munich struggling a bit here and there. They are losing games in the Bundesliga which they usually would never lose as we all know. They have lost in the DFB Cup against Gladbach in a home game 0 - 5. They almost lost against Salzburg in the Champions League. They are definitely not in the best shape possible right now, but I also agree that they are still a team that is able to beat any other team in the world. Yet it would be in their best interest to stabilize their performances much more in the near future.

I remember this match well from the cup where Bayern Munich were floored 5-0. This is not the Bayern Munich of years ago that crushed everyone. It has been shown by several opponents that they are vulnerable and it has also been shown a few times this season. Bayern has been lucky in the Champions League, but if they continue like this they will at least not enter the Champions League. As far as the competition is concerned, we are still good enough to win this competition and especially because the competitors  are losing in the competition a lot of points left and right. This weekend they still won quite simply, even everything against the last.

Well, I see one chance when the Bundesliga could become interesting once more. If Dortmund keeps winning the next three or four games and Haaland comes back, we still have the showdown between Bayern Munich and Dortmund in a couple of weeks. Now its still 6 points and the goal ratio speaks in favor for Bayern as well, but at least it would get a little more exciting if Bayern drops some points until the game between the two teams takes place.

I agree with you but the problem is that Bayern Munich is the type of team so strong that to lose points is almost impossible, it is difficult to imagine that Bayern Munich can lose 6 points and that Dortmund can win the games and manage to have the same points as the Bayern Munich and Bundesliga  becomes more interesting, Bayern Munich has become a team that does not leave the throne and for it to be removed from the throne it is necessary that it has a strong team and that it beats Bayern Munich with a big difference in points and i'm not seeing it happen anytime soon

For lack of intrigue at the top, you have to come up with other "exciting" rivalries  

I don't think I need to be evasive about that, and I think you have the same thoughts as me.  
Because seeing the competition at the top of the table, Bayern Munich is too superior to look for a natural counter. Although now the points difference is slightly closer, Bayern Munich is still difficult to beat other teams. Although it could happen, but it takes a harder effort that must be done by other teams.

The problem is that even if Bayern starts to lose a lot of points, the clubs pursuing them do not look so solid to be considered as potential champions. For example, in the EPL, Liverpool looks really intimidating and looks like a potential champion. In the German championship there is Bayern and all the rest, at the moment I don’t see a single bright club that would look good in the place of Bayern.

Unfortunately, Bayern don't have opponents that could prevent them from winning the Bundesliga and that won't change anytime soon.

Yes and keep in mind it is not the six points difference only, but it is also the goal statistics that count in the end. Essentially, Bayern Munich would have to lose two games and tie another one. The only chance I see is if Dortmund literally wins every single game (highly unlikely) including the one they play against Bayern Munich. As the game against Dortmund takes place in Bayern, probability that Dortmund has a chance is rather low, but it does still exist though. Bayern gave away games at home this season.

But I assume that not many people were expecting them to have this much difficulty. Anyway, it wouldn't cause any problem for Hoffenheim as long as they make it to the win.

So if TSG Hoffenheim hadn't won that, they wouldn't be allowed to play in the Champions League. Now they are in 4th place and that's enough for a chance to play there. VfB Stuttgart have had problems for a long time and are in a relegation spot, plus they have injured players again, with Mangala and Stenzel, two more players had to go out due to injury. Things are not going well for them. There was a goal in the first half-time, don't forget. It was 1:0 for Hoffenheim, but it was offside. If that hadn't happened, the game would have been completely different. The man of the day: Baumgartner!

[AndySt]

Dortmund now can concentrate 100% on the Bundesliga. They have been eliminated from the Europa League. They only played 2:2 against Glasgow Rangers. The defence was not good, especially in the second half. They could have conceded even more goals. The offence was good, but the defence is not good enough for an international opponent. But probably enough for the Bundesliga.

I think Dortmund is mentally not in good shape, after losing to Rangers in the Europa League, even though Dortmund are more superior.
it's true that Dortmund can focus on the domestic league only. but they often lose sometimes and I think them to win the title in the domestic league is very difficult because they have to compete with Bayern Munich, the giant German team. And in the last five games Dortmund have only won 2 games and even then with a team that is indeed superior on paper, while at the top of the standings the difference in points with Bayern Munich is quite far, I think it's a bit difficult to catch up with Bayer Munich points.

And yet, nothing is impossible in football and Bayern Munich may well still lose points, especially since there really is still a full-time match with Borussia Dortmund. Another question is that you still need to take advantage of these misfires and not lose your own, and the matches with Rangers, among other things, show that Dortmund is not all right with the defense, because the club could not win in any of the two games, scoring two goals in both matches. Therefore, the return of Haaland is good news and help, but previous experience shows that his goals are by no means a guarantee of a winning result. About mentality, I would like to say that a good mentality comes with good results, but it cannot be based on an empty place

What a dramatic victory Hoffenheim managed to get, Christoph Baumgartner became a hero for Hoffenheim after scoring two goals in 5 minutes.
And made Hoffenheim win, which is now Hoffenheim's position has risen to 4th position, the more opportunities for Hoffenheim to play in
the Champions League next season. Even though it's not safe because Leipzig and Freiburg haven't played. Hoffenheim still need a lot of points
to compete with Leipzig and Freiburg for 4th place. Of course it's not easy, because Leipzig are also starting to show improved performance after
starting the season badly. If Hoffenheim wants to be in 4th position or even up to 3rd position, because the difference in points with Leverkusen is
also only one point, Hoffenheim should be able to win as much as possible in the remaining 10 matches.

I'm glad to see Dortmund having Erling Haaland back again after an injury struck him. Dortmund bombed Gladbach by six goals last week and this was beyond my expectation too. Because they seemed like an inconsistent team lately and we wouldn't know what they could do in that match. And now on this week, they are going to play away against Augsburg. This must be another easy-peasy match for Dortmund hopefully. Bayern Munich's match is before them and it is against E. Frankfurt away. Bayern Munich lost against them home and maybe they might lose points again. Dortmund must benefit from a chance like that if it happens.

Dortmund cruising past Gladbach last Sunday didn't come as a surprise to me. They've always been a team that is top notch today and shitty tomorrow - that's how inconsistent Dortmund is. When you'd expect them to win an easy opponent, that's when they'll lose and win when you least expect. With Haaland back now, they should forget on winning as many games as possible from now till the season comes to an end if they want to have a real shot at the Bundesliga title.

Hoffenheim managed to win against Stuttgart yesterday. The game was tough for both teams. After ending the first half with scoreless draw. Stuttgart happened to score First in the second half, but Hoffenheim turned the score round towards the end of the match. Baumgartner who became the man of the match probably scored 2 goals within 5 minutes, and saved Hoffenheim from losing. While Stuttgart have to improve their performance, to enable them avoid getting relegated at the end of the season, they are currently in the relegation zone, and needs more points to escape.

@jakdanyel Halland presence will bring them much needed relief, because after the elimination in the Europa league they would like to try and win the league as Bayern don’t have a very big lead at this moment. Lastly I agree with you’ll for some unexplained reason they haven’t been able to stop being inconsistent this season, but if they can continuously win their remaining league games then it’ll surely put Bayern under pressure, but honestly I doubt that Bayern will lose the title.

I honestly doubt that Bayern will lose their title because I honestly doubt that Dortmund will consistently win their games!

Dortmund was a crazy roller coaster this season. They win one game easily, and lose the next game in a way that you must think you are watching a 2. Bundesliga team. First of all it is mostly about Haaland, and even with him Dortmund sometimes plays real trash. I don't know what their problem is. So many young players that should be motivated above and beyond, yet they fail so frequently.

After Borussia flew out of all tournaments (and from all of them quite unexpectedly), it can only play for its own pleasure and hope for Bayern's mistake, which is unlikely to happen, but one must be prepared for such a turn of events just in case. The fact that Haaland is back in action is good news, it is a pity that he could not help his team in games with the Rangers.

[CLS63]

One of the first games today is going to be Gladbach vs Wolfsburg. These teams both are in a really bad condition this season. Bookmakers are indicating that Gladbach are still the favourite here. But I still don't see any favourite as it is hard to predict. Wolfsburg are only one point above them in the league standings now. And comparing the recent forms, there is not a big difference either. I see a tie game here but both of them should be able to score goal(s) easily. They both have something to lose as they are near the relegation area. They would do their best here to win and take a deep breath.

[bct_ail]

Hoffenheim took the first step by beating Stuttgart and they now have 40 points. The saying is that with 40 points you can no longer be relegated.
Now Freiburg and Leipzig also have to win. Köln, Mainz and Union Berlin are right behind them.

Dortmund must perform with all they have got next season if they don't have any chance for the Bundesliga title now. I know that they are still the second best team of the league and this is also a good achievement for them. But I believe that this shouldn't be enough for a team like Dortmund. They are a very quality team in this league and they also deserve to win the title at least for once to end Bayern Munich's incredible title streak. Because Bayern Munich literally ended the title race for many years.

Yeah yesterday game was really interesting what a comeback that was for hoffenheim it was their third in a row with such a good performance their target now will be to qualify for the champions league it won't be easy but they can do it for sure.

[bering]

Leverkusen will focus for match against Bielefeld because their ambition to playing for European competition for next season and to chasing Dortmund on second position but they should not be slipped because if lost their position not safe because Hoffenheim only one point behind and so far Bielefeld very tough from defence side and not easy to beat them because so far Bielefeld only lose from their 10 latest matches

[Velvet78]

Bayern Munich have an away game against Frankfurt this evening. Of course, this is a not too difficult game for Bayern Munich but they lost against Frankfurt in Allianz Arena by 1-2 too. Bayern Munich should play much better against them taking this information into account. Bayern Munich defeated Furth last week and they would like to make this continuing now too. They need a winning streak again to improve their morale highly. And they are very good at it when they really want it. They can dominate the league whenever they want now.
