Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[EdenHazard]

And Freiburg is just at the top after 5 games. It is much too early to say that they will continue to play at the top, but we expected more from Bayern Munich. 2 draws is just not good and if that was against the top of Germany it would have been a different story. Dortmund is hooking up well and is currently 2nd. It will be only a matter of time before Freiburg drops out at the top, but at least let's hope Dortmund can battle Bayern Munich for the championship this season. We are ready for a new champion after Bayern Munich's dominance in recent years.

The battle might be intense this year but Bayern has a lot of potentials that other teams haven't except maybe Dortmund that might be annoying. It is their chance anyway this season to grab the title.
This round isn't the best one for most top teams. In the next one Dortmund will face Leipzig and Freiburg will play vs M'Gladbach. Hard games there.

I must say that bundesliga title race almost 90% are belong to bayern munich.

In the last 10 to 15 years .. the bundesliga title race were unhealthy .. unfair due the club purchasing power between bayern munich and the other teams is like 5 times lower than bayern munich.
It's even often that any rising star players in bundesliga always bought by bayern and this time this season i see no difference , they are too great to compete with the others.

[Slow death]

They know in this match if they play open they won't be able to get anything there so playing defensively from the start is the best thing for them.
This result is a very good result for Bayern because indeed with this result they managed to take points and they know that a scheme like this is going well enough for the team that is above them.

Bayern Munich were forced to draw by Union Berlin and made them lose 2 points, this season Bayern Munich have drawn twice, after the previous week they were held to a draw by Monchengladbach. The consecutive draws that Munich got made them have to drop to 3rd position, now they are one point adrift of Freiburg who are in first place. The stoppage of Bayern Munich winning record did not make them out of the champions list, Munich can regain first place in the near future. I am very sure that Munich will improve their performance in the coming matches, they will again show that they are a champion team.

I think the situation is not that simple. if we look at which teams bayern drew we can see that they were draws against teams that are not fighting for the title and everything becomes worse because in those two games that bayern drew they were not able to score more than 1 goal. Look:

bayern 1 - 1 Monchengladbach

bayern 1 - 1 Union Berlin

And I don't believe that in the next games, Bayern won't lose points again. maybe in this season they will have difficulties to become champions


Augsburg 0 - 2 Hertha Berlin

with this result, Hertha Berlin got the first victory

Borussia M.Gladbach 0 - 1 Mainz 05

this is another one of those games that are very complicated to predict the result, I preferred not to bet on this game

I am quite surprised by the rankings in the temporary standings table (Freiburg is in first place while Dortmund is in second and Bayern is in third)

I'm still asking what's really going on with Bayern, UCL hasn't started yet but their game doesn't seem to be focused, I hope that Bayern's game pattern will improve and won't continue to end in a draw

I was also a little surprised when I saw Bayern Munich are in third place after five games this season. But Bayern Munich are still not far behind with Freiburg and Dortmund currently in first and second place in the standings. So Bayern Munich still has a chance to be in first place on condition that they have to win more games and also don't have to lose or draw with their opponents this season. Due to the intense competition this season, in general the Bundesliga has become more interesting to watch.

Bayern Munich didn't play well in the last two matches. I mean they can not earn the full points But they played enough well. Though the opponent played fully defensive tactics. So that, Munich's players cannot score. I think at this time they missed Lewandowski badly. Bayern Munich has a strong squad. I think in a few matches, we will see Bayern Munich at the top of the table. But the net opponent is Union Berlin. This team is hard enough. It will be not easy for Bayern to get full points against Union Berlin.

the coach must find the right way for Munich when it comes to deadlock. facing a defensive team is difficult for Munich when they don't have players who can break down defenses and create chances.
Munich is quite productive in scoring goals. but when it comes to a team that understands how to deal with Munich's attacking pattern. they're in trouble.
I still believe Munich will remain the best in the Bundesliga. even as the competition gets tougher, this will be a good thing for the fans.

[Rabi3]

Borussia M.Gladbach 0 - 1 Mainz 05

this is another one of those games that are very complicated to predict the result, I preferred not to bet on this game

take this advice from me, it might help you, most of the times, when an okay team or a weak one makes a surprise against a big team just like monchengladbach drawing against Bayern munich, they don't win in their next match, it happens a lot, not all the time, but i have seen it so much that i noticed it, don't blame if you try to bet on a team with the same scenario and lose Monchengladbach's next match in the league is against Freiburg who made a surprise and beat Bayern Leverkusen after being down 1-0, so here i could say that Freiburg won't win against Monchengladbach, "double chance" is a good bet on it.

[Z-tight]

Nothing is going on with bayern, or do you want them to be invincible, there will be games they will not take all the points, and they will have to either draw or lose, and honestly i like it for the sake of the league's competitiveness, so viewers can have a reason to follow the bundesliga more. Bayern drew their last two league games, but they did not play in a bad way, they created many chances to score. For those who feel Lewandowski will no be missed at all, i tell you that it is in this kind of games were they need a goal, that they will miss him, because he is one of the best in the world at scoring goals. I hope other clubs in the league will be stronger and more determined everytime they meet Bayern.

Agreed with this all and with this now how can others can compete with them a big question because here if they want to be interesting and healthy competitions between top teams then surely needs good funds and better structure which help them for having good challenge for Bayern Munich but no one is going to invest big amount for this all which is surely a big misery for many clubs in Germany and France where same trend is going on PSG is ruling and others are struggling badly due to lack of funds.

In last season we have some hopes from few teams as they were doing good job which was good sign, but suddenly most of the teams are struggling badly, and nothing positive is coming which mean we can face this situation for long time German soccer authorities are also not able to solve this all, so we have to face Bayern Munich as dominating force.

Bayern Munich in the previous few matches managed to draw points and did not get a point deduction in the standings because indeed maybe they want to take a short break and after that show full strength again and come back to reach the number one position again, Don't be afraid in the Bundesliga it's already seen what will be the winner because until now no one has been able to beat Bayern Munich.

The occurrence of underperform is certainly a natural thing in a football team, especially since this is just the beginning of the season and I don't think it's a serious problem for Bayern because in terms of quality they are very good and fairly evenly distributed in all lines of course they will quickly get up.
and it's true that this result will of course make the Bundesliga competition even tougher, this is a good thing and a sign that this season the top-flight competition in the Bundesliga is getting fiercer, that's a positive thing for the competitiveness and attractiveness of the Bundesliga.

[YuginKadoya]

Here are the results for my picks on the games yesterday, and both picks lost

FC Augsburg VS Hertha BSC GOAL 0 - 2 - LOST

It was a close game in my opinion but Hertha managed to put in their goals, both Dodi Lukebakio and Marco Richter made it, in the 1st half pretty much both teams are struggling in getting their goal, then Filip Uremovic got a yellow card, while another second past Augsburg Carlos Gruezo now have gotten the yellow card then on halftime on the 51' Dodi Lukebakio made a goal for Hertha while Augsburg is still struggling then on the 90+3' Hertha's Marco Richter made another goal, I really thought the game would end up in a draw, Hertha manage to get in 2 of their goals,

Borussia Monchengladbach VS 1. FSV Mainz 05 GOAL 0 - 1 - LOST

Like Augsburg and Hertha, this game was close aswell, pretty it was raining yellow cards in the 1st half, Gladbach's Kouadio Kone got a yellow card then both Mainz players Leandro Barreiro and Lee Jae-Sung take on yellow cards then at halftime Aaron Caricol made his shot go in and a Red card for defender Ko Itakura,

~snip~

I have to say they are nothing compared to Bayern Munich, just because they got a tie doesn't mean that they are tough, it just means Bayern either had an unlucky day, or they just didn't want to deal with any of this and just didn't care at all. Let's be honest, Union Berlin is a team that has something, they are not bad at all and they could always be better and they could finish second one day, not saying it will be this year but they could.

But, we are talking about Bayern as competition, not even dortmund is close to Bayern, not even Leipzig with all their money. Bayern is on another level, they are playing like a team from higher division, these are just uncommon results.

very clearly, Union Berlin is nothing when compared to the depth of players that Bayern Munich have. Everyone knows that, but in this match it is not only luck that plays an important role in determining the outcome of a match. I have stated in a previous post, that the Urs Fischer squad will work hard to stem and break every attack launched by the Bayern Munich squad with Sadio Mane as the spearhead.

in every match of course always requires tactics and strategy and Union Berlin succeeded with its plan.
With the depth that Bayern Munich has, it doesn't mean that in every match, Munich will always win, so it's very natural when Bayern only get a draw.

[Sebas.tian]

They know in this match if they play open they won't be able to get anything there so playing defensively from the start is the best thing for them.
This result is a very good result for Bayern because indeed with this result they managed to take points and they know that a scheme like this is going well enough for the team that is above them.

Bayern Munich were forced to draw by Union Berlin and made them lose 2 points, this season Bayern Munich have drawn twice, after the previous week they were held to a draw by Monchengladbach. The consecutive draws that Munich got made them have to drop to 3rd position, now they are one point adrift of Freiburg who are in first place. The stoppage of Bayern Munich winning record did not make them out of the champions list, Munich can regain first place in the near future. I am very sure that Munich will improve their performance in the coming matches, they will again show that they are a champion team.

Yes, Bayern Munich will definitely win their next match to improve their points because their coach has discovered were the fault is coming from and he has promised his fans that draw match will not happen to them again till the end of this tournament. I believe, Bayern Munich coach will definitely work on his midfield to make sure they supply their strikers a lot of opportunity that will bring victory at the end of the match. It was a surprised game to people the way Union Berlin defenders and midfielders blocked Bayern Munich strikers not to achieve many goals from the match, despite the struggle they struggle to make the match 2-1 but union Berlin never allow such thing to happen than to made the match draw 1-1 at the end.

[karabiber]

Union Berlin showed resistance against Munich with a modest squad and reached the result. This team continues to do interesting things in the Bundesliga. It is great that this club which has not seen the top league for a long time is holding on to the Bundesliga. This development of Union Berlin deserves commendation. They showed incredible resilience in the match. When the players from Munich were down they saw U.Berlin players next to them. They fight very well. Goalkeeper Rönnow defended his goal area well. I expect surprises from Union Berlin in the future.

In my opinion, Bayern did not play badly in the last two Bundesliga matches, as evidenced by the statistics, it seems that Bayern dominated
the match. Even when facing Monchengladbach or Union Berlin, Bayern created a lot of opportunities. The problem is that Sadio Mane still cannot
replace Lewandowski's role as Bayern's goal machine, it is proven that Mane is still playing inconsistently. Even Mane in the last two matches
in the Bundesliga has struggled to score goals, even though Bayern had dominated the match and also created many chances.

I think Nagelsmann needs to give Mane a chance to play as a winger. Because for Sadio Mane playing as a center forward is still not fully adapted.
Mane looks less effective as a center forward, looks like Nagelsmann should try to put Mane on the wing like when Mane played at Liverpool.
Because if I look at Mane's game at Liverpool, Mane is very effective when he plays as a winger. Next Bayern will play in the Champions League
against Inter, I hope Bayern can play better against Inter.

[Jody.Drummer]

Bayern Munich will face VfB in this week's match, and obviously the difference between the two is huge. This should be a comfortable win for Bayern Munich.
But before that, Bayern Munich will play Inter Milan for a Champions League group C match. Yes, this could be an interesting competition between the two. Two giant clubs will meet with the same mission.

I know they will win again because indeed the Bundesliga is not really suitable for debating the championship because it is definitely theirs, but at least with a result like this there is something that can indeed be seen from the competitiveness because almost every season they run alone in the championship. but with them having the same and lower scores obviously this will be better because at least there is something they feel is a condition where they have to chase not be chased.

[Z-tight]

Bayern Munich will face VfB in this week's match, and obviously the difference between the two is huge. This should be a comfortable win for Bayern Munich.

Bayern Munich will be very focused on beating Stuttgart this weekend, they drew the last two games against Monchengladbach and Union Berlin, and i am sure the manager will be very annoyed with his players, if they don't beat Stuttgart then they will give the rest of the league more confidence when they play against them, and that is not good for Bayern, so they will have to beat Stuttgart very concincingly to prove a very important point, and i feel they will; for Stuttgart, their job is to go and look at what the last two teams that played against Bayern did, and how they were both able to take points off the defending champions, and try to do the same too, i feel Bayern will beat them, but i will be happy if i am wrong at end of the match.

[bct_ail]

I am very surprised with some teams how they play in the Bundesliga. And currently there are teams in the top 10 that I would not have expected to be there at the beginning of the season. For example, Union Berlin and Mainz. I did not watch Mainz in the preparation, but I did not think they would be in the top 5.  Union Berlin has already shown in preparation what great morale the team has. I hope it will stay that way.
