Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[S A KHAIR]

Bochum at the very bottom, Union Berlin became the top of the Bundesliga standings.
Bochum's only advantage in this match, they are the home team. but like you said, don't you think there's something odd about this @1.90. then I wouldn't be surprised if the final result of this match was a draw, but it turned out that Bochum got the full points in this match.

I never imagined that Union Berlin would lose points and be defeated in this match. Berlin's performance has been excellent in each of the previous matches. But against a team as weak as Bochum, they are not expected to play this badly. The weakest team in the league is Bochum. Berlin players did not attack much in this match. Against a weak team like  Bochum, Union Berlin's players should have played an attacking strategy from the start of the match. If Berlin's players scored the first goal of the match, Bochum's players were under pressure and could not win. Union Berlin will definitely need to change their tactics if they want to stay at the top of the points table.

This was unexpected indeed because in this case it was clear that Union was very superior in any case, especially the opponent was Bochum.
But this is football and it's interesting to see Bochum in their last 2 wins because one could say they won against clubs which are actually a club that can trouble Bayern and Dortmund as 2 wins came from beating Frankfurt and now Union Berlin.

I would say Bochum played well and won this match. It deserves Bochum. In this match, Bochum players made 9 shots and Berlin players made 8. Bochum's players had 5 on-target shots out of 9 shots. On the other hand, Berlin's players made only 3 on target shots. Bochum's performance was more organized and better than Union Berlin's. So they won this match.

Bochum is extraordinary because they managed to beat a very strong club in the current Bundesliga, they became the second club after Union Berlin was defeated by Frankfurt. No one would have thought that Union Berlin's defeat would be accepted against a club that couldn't be said to be strong, even they could be said to be the weakest club at the moment. But that's how football makes us more interested to watch it, everything that looks impossible can happen at any time and to any club, including even a club that has a strong predicate.

I am not among the people that think that Mane is not doing well in Bayern.
Mane has scored good number of goals in almost all his appearances for the club. He has contributed to goals by giving assist.
Even in Liverpool he wasn't the face of the club and he isn't that type of player to do anything to be at the score sheet.
There are many goal scorers in Bayer and Mane is among them, he must not be the top scorer of the club before we recognise him.
It is Bayern that is not in great form, not Mane.

Right now Bayern Munich is doing quite an awesome job in winning their game and Sadio Mane is doing great right now he got 5 goals along with Leroy Sane Next game for Bayern is against Mainz and with that in mind this could be a bit difficult now that Leroy Sane is injured and can not play do the Bayern Munich will likely to overcome this with just Sadio mane, and Jamal Musiala, I think they can surely do it when Sadio Mane is a winger for Bayern Munich,

There is no such thing as an unbeatable team, even Union Berlin knows this, but the weird thing here is they will be beaten by Bochum of all the teams out there, but the match is just close, I think Union Berlin just is a lucky team to be on the top standing for as long as they are right now, but the other teams finish their holes with formation, chemistry as a team, and their desire to win for me I really believe that Bayern Munich will eventually pass Union Berlin and will make them top team again,

Actually this is a reasonable in my opinion. The fact that having Mane on the sidelines has really been the right decision so far considering this is the ideal position for Mane.
Mainz at the moment are still quite good, but before they prepare with Mainz of course they have to prepare with Barcelona, even though it is safe to be in the Champions League but still I don't think they will give Barcelona freedom in their life and death match.

[hahay]

Looks like the top position will soon be taken over by the king of Bayern Munich, I don't care which team will be able to hold Union Berlin to a draw and or beat it. Because any team will certainly have a chance for them to beat or hold Union Berlin in the next match because in fact, no one thought that even though Union Berlin was at the top of the standings, they lost by Bochum, the team at the bottom of the standings. So yeah, I really don't believe Union Berlin will be able to maintain its top position in the Bundesliga.

Now the point difference between Union Berlin and Bayern Munich is only one point and of course, it is not difficult for Bayern Munich to continue to put pressure on Union Berlin at the moment. But apart from that I think there is something more interesting, about getting team points in the Bundesliga today because the points seem to be very organized and it can be seen from positions 1 to 8. But actually, from the bottom of the standings in fact their points look very organized and only points or numbers 10, 12 and 13 which are not in the Bundesliga standings at this moment.
But at least it also shows that the Bundesliga this season has become very competitive because their points gap is not too wide, unlike in other leagues which have a gap of 2 to 4 points, but in the current Bundesliga, the average gap is only 1 point.

[EdenHazard]

Yes Sadio Mane is one great player who has individual skills but after moving to Bayern Munich he hasn't shown his best game form like when he played in the English league last season, now I think Sadio Mane needs a few more months to adapt under the system of play Nagelsmann and he also have to strengthen the chemistry with the players of the Bayern Munich squad in order to find the best combination when playing.

The difference in style of play and the position he played at Liverpool is one of the reasons why Sadio Mane has not been able to show his best game at Bayern Munich in my opinion. There are different roles that must make him work harder to be able to adapt to the game that Nagelsmann applies. But I still believe that he will be able to return to his best form as long as he is still trusted.

I am not among the people that think that Mane is not doing well in Bayern.
Mane has scored good number of goals in almost all his appearances for the club. He has contributed to goals by giving assist.
Even in Liverpool he wasn't the face of the club and he isn't that type of player to do anything to be at the score sheet.
There are many goal scorers in Bayer and Mane is among them, he must not be the top scorer of the club before we recognise him.
It is Bayern that is not in great form, not Mane.

Well yeah if people start to expect mane to become bundesliga top scorer then it's gonna be a tough one indeed , there are many of goal machine in bayern current squad the number of goals might be divided evenly between :

jamal musiala 6 goals
sadio mane 5 goals
leroy sane 5 goals

These trio are the current top scorer for bayern and there is kimmich , coupo-mouting & muller 2 goals each, tough competition.

Nobody will thought Union Berlin will lose from Bochum today because Bochum is so weak and their position at the bottom of standings league and Union Berlin also using their best lineup to faced this match because i saw they playing using some of their key players such as their previous matches but maybe because tight schedules from them makes some of players cannot managed their performance and also seems their depth of squad quality are not equal to their main players so that's why if the manager made some changes Union Berlin will playing poor but with this result their position threaten by Bayern Munich because if they slipped again for upcoming matches i am sure Bayern Munich will taking over their position

[Velvet78]

Union Berlin did it like Liverpool against Nottingham Forest!

This is definitely kind of a setback for Union Berlin. This might be more than just the lost three points. Full pressure from Bayern Munich again and beyond that several other clubs. The five teams behind Union Berlin won their game this weekend, which makes them a massive loser of this gameday. Those three points hurt a lot and honestly I am a bit sad about it. It's always fun to see Bayern hunt another team in front of them, but the difference is that Bayern often is able to change gears while other teams become unstable.

Dortmund's win was a must or otherwise they could have dropped to rank 9. That might have been close to Terzic being sacked soon. Now they should use their momentum, but as we all know, it is Borussia Dortmund...

It looks like those odds were telling us something because Union Berlin's odd was pretty high.  

Bochum kept the game balanced despite playing against the leader. I think they really deserved this win. After having a 2-0 score advantage Union Berlin had nowhere to run. They desperately tried to make a comeback. If Pantovic didn't miss the penalty maybe they would have more time to equalize the score and get one point at least. But they scored barely in the stoppage time and it ended 2-1. Union Berlin couldn't beat the last team in the standings and this would affect them mentally bad I guess.

[execijutiere]

The German league is a bit complicated this year. There is no clear favorite for the title. Every team seems to be capable of beating each other, and you can get surprise results. There is not much point difference between the teams. But I can say that Bayern Munich is one of the teams that have no problem scoring goals. In 11 weeks they scored 32 goals, which is an average of 3 goals per game.

[budi691]

With a 2-0 win over Hoffenheim, Bayern Munich is getting closer to Union Berlin at the top, while Union Berlin will play tomorrow night against Bochum, it's interesting, the German league standings are only 1 point adrift of 1 and 2 standings, but union berlin doesn't seem to be it will be difficult tomorrow night to widen the gap again with bayern munchen, and my prediction tomorrow union berlin will win more than 3 -0 against bochum

Bochum is currently at the bottom of the Bundesliga standings, it will be difficult for them to beat union which is at their best. Bochum's chances of winning are pretty large (around 30% because they are the hosts) but that doesn't guarantee that Bochum will be lucky in that match. it's very interesting to see how union and Bayern only have one point difference, it's very tight.

yes right the hosts finally won the match with a score of 2-1, this was unexpectedly the league leaders lost from 17th place, although unexpected but in the end the hosts won the match, at least the german league is more interesting this season with union berlin at the top standings for a while, but if in the end the king of the bayern league wins the german league again, it looks like the german league will be boring if bayern wins again, another story if the berlin union wins or a team other than bayern, maybe the german league will be more interesting

I think after last round results it became more clear that bayern team will win it again, they seem unbeatable at the moment, the other teams seem to beatable i don't see anyone  else outperforming bayern.

This is true, even though they have lost a main striker this season but they can still be productive in terms of goalscoring. Sadio Mane who struggled with his performances with Bayern Munich also did not affect Bayern Munich's goal achievement. I agree that the Bundesliga is more competitive than last season, placing a lot of teams who have points very close together. But Union Berlin got a stumbling block after they lost to Bochum this week.

The WhoScored Bundesliga Team of the Week (11) is out and Dortmund is dominating:

Of the 11 players selected, five are from Dortmund. This underlines once again what a strong performance the Dortmunders put in over the weekend.

Julian Bellingham even earned the highest possible score with a 10.0. Pretty sick performance, if you ask me.

I'm curious how long we can still see him play in the BVB jersey. The first offers should already come in the next winter transfer window. I hope Dortmund can keep him - at least until the end of the season.

[KTChampions]

And finally, parity is approaching Bundesliga. Saw Freiburg drop at last week's hurdle, and today Union Berlin's turn. Still 1 point above the defending champions but I guess we'll be seeing Bayern right back up sitting above everyone before World Cup begins... right?

Hoping both Freiburg and Union do themselves justice in Europa this Thursday though as I got them both on last legs of an acca with all other legs already booked!

Nice bet! I hope Union Berlin will not repeat their unexpected failure yesterday when they were able to lose to the last team in the Bundesliga (only thanks to this victory, Bochum rose one line above Schalke).
Bayern again just one point away from first place, and if you look at the nearest "real" competitors, then the lead over Borussia is already 3 points.

Union Berlin is now just 1 point ahead of Bayern Munich. Now, if Berlin wants to keep the top spot in the table, they must win the next matches. However, if Berlin's poor performance against Bochum does not improve, Union Berlin will soon lose their place at the top of the points table. Berlin should try to change their match strategy and perform better in the upcoming matches.

Sadio Mane a quality player. Bayern Munich did well to add him to the squad. However, Sadio Mane could not fully adapt to the team now. Because Liverpool's style of play and Bayern Munich's style of play are different. But if Sadio Mane can adapt to the Bayern Munich team and everyone can support him, he will be a valuable player for the team.

Union Berlin?The most pathetic team I have ever seen.They have had an awful campaign in the Europa League only lately to get a two wins with a narrow result 1-0 in both games,against Braga and Royal Union they have had some really bad performance.

Maybe they are focusing on the Bundesliga more but trust me they will never win a Bundesliga with such amateur performance for a team that fights for the title,I wonder is the Bundesliga level this down that a team like Union Berlin is fighting for the title?
I just checked the table and they are at the top,with such gameplay unbelievable.I guess I have not seen Bundesliga games from quite a while.

For a player who has played at a club for a long time will have difficulty adjusting to his new club in a short time and we saw that happen to Sadio Mane. Liverpool was perfect when Mane was there, Liverpool lost a lot of Mane and vice versa, Bayern looks to have a pattern and style of play that is much different from Liverpool, the one who must adapt is Sadio Mane himself, hopefully, he can make a big contribution to Bayern.

[Ayers]

Dortmund were really impressive this week. Maybe their opponent wasn't a big team but Dortmund really needed a win like 5-0 to recover a little. They couldn't win for three weeks before this game. This pushed them to lower positions in the standings. But now they are only four points away from the leader. Union Berlin haven't played their game yet of course so we will see the final gap later.
Bayern Munich have started to play like in the past seasons finally after many weeks passed in the season. Doing this without a natural striker is a great job. I know that they have Choupo-Moting but I meant a striker like Lewandowski. I wonder if they will sign someone in January as well.

Bayern Munich has been performing well. They are winning games by a wide margin. They are improving the team day by day. When Lewandowski was at Bayern Munich, their team was much stronger. But after Lewandowski left the team, the team had some adverse effects. Although Bayern Munich have added Sadio Mane to the team, he will need some time to adapt to the team.

Sadio Mane is a great football player.  Coming to Germany from England, of course, may have caused the problem of adaptation.  He must be getting used to the Bundesliga as he has adapted to the Premier League.  We have to give it a chance.  Lewandowski is a player who has played in the Bundesliga for years, and his familiarity with the league in the goals he scored is also a factor.  Mane will make great contributions to Bayern Munich after overcoming the adaptation problem.

Velvet78, impressive a week doesn't mean anything.

I am not sure why I feel like Dortmund is the team which is winning against very weak opponents by a very large margin.
However, when they face a decent team they are not able to do anything about it.

Yes, they scored 5 goals against Stuttgart, which is in the relegation zone mind you, by the way, so it is no mystery to me that they won the match.
As a result, this should not come as a surprise to anyone.

Secondly, it has become quite clear to me that Dortmund will not be winning the German Bundesliga this year, which is quite unfortunate for them.

Julian Bellingham and Niklas Süle showed an awesome performance on the Weekend against Stuttgart.
In my opinion i would take De Ligt out of the statistics here as there was other good playing Players.
About the offers for Bellingham i guess he is already on the watching list of some Clubs the last year ,
and also hope he will be in Dortmund maybe for some years as he is a Leader there with his 19 years.

Sadio Mane a quality player. Bayern Munich did well to add him to the squad. However, Sadio Mane could not fully adapt to the team now. Because Liverpool's style of play and Bayern Munich's style of play are different. But if Sadio Mane can adapt to the Bayern Munich team and everyone can support him, he will be a valuable player for the team.

He adapted already to Bayern Munich not fully but he did and its always a difficult thing to get into a new squad.
Also i think that he is supported from all there and we will see him getting better at some stage.
