Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Mustang Shelby]

Well, I also think the same, no matter how bad Bayern has had, for me they will come out champions

Bayern Munich are unique in Bundesliga and they have a power which can not be seen in other clubs in Bundesliga. Other clubs usually are fearful when they are in races with Bayern Munich and at important times, they often have slippery performances and lose the titles to Bayern Munich.

I don't deny that Union Berlin and Dortmund have tremendous quality, but I think that now Bayern have what it takes to be champions, now well Once they reach the Bundesliga, they will be very focused on the UCL, a competition where only the best are, now Bayern's motivation is at its highest point, and it's also as you say, they don't see the Bundesliga anymore like boring, it's very exciting and I think it's gaining a lot of demand and the fans are more and more satisfied.

Union Berlin after a latest defeat will lose their confidence more and they mostly were striked out from the race. Now it is like dual race between Bayern Munich and Dortmund and with a recent defeat of Dortmund in Champions League, the dual race becomes more exciting.

Dortmund now will focus for Bundesliga and Bayern Munich still have Champions League. We must wait for final result of Bayern Munich against PSG to see will they continue their journey in Champions League or will have to focus on Bundesliga only like Dortmund.

If Bayern Munich continue in Champions League, Dortmund will have good advantage in Bundesliga.

Speaking of performance, I'm quite impressed with union Berlin.  Not even Dortmund, cuz Dortmund have earned a name in Germany football big enough to win the German Bundesliga without much deliberation or surprises at their performances. But for union Berlin,  they have not been this good in the past years when Bayern used to go away with this title effortlessly. So seeing Germany table in this nature makes me believe that there is a great improvement in the league.

I don't know if everyone thinks like me, but at the beginning of the season, I didn't even think that Union Berlin would be in the championship race. What they accomplished at this stage is actually very good.  I can say that they are a bit unlucky, they are in this ranking even though they lost points against very weak teams.  They continue to be successful in the European league as well.  Union Berlin is giving a performance to be admired.

The good news about Dortmund getting knocked out of the Champions League by Chelsea is they can focus on the Bundesliga and challenge for the title. I never thought Union would be able to challenge because they have failed to get points when Bayern have dropped them and Bayern are occupied in the Champions League. I think Dortmund can be the favorites to win the league because they can focus only on the league and do not have to worry about playing many games and resting players. Bayern will have to rest players and they will drop points. Dortmund have the quality to win every game until the end of the season.

I don't think this has any impact even though they have already been eliminated from the Champions League title but for the bundesliga competition I still don't have any expectations for Dortmund.
The conditions will still be the same as 10 seasons ago with them only being able to stick and be in second place.
Even though at this time there is still competition, I don't think they can compete.

And after their UCL victory over PSG, I concur wholeheartedly that Bayern Munich is a team with tremendous motivation and inspiration. In my opinion, Bayern Munich will win the Bundesliga, despite the fact that Union Berlin is a squad that can surprise.  That other teams like Dortmund can compete at the highest level is fantastic; they prove that selling star players isn't the only way to triumph. As a result of rising interest and a growing lack of boredom among supporters, the Bundesliga is quickly rising to the ranks of the world's most exciting leagues. Anyway, the current odds for Berlin to win is now @10.00. We can be rich lol.

Well, I also think the same, no matter how bad Bayern has had, for me they will come out champions, I don't deny that Union Berlin and Dortmund have tremendous quality, but I think that now Bayern have what it takes to be champions, now well Once they reach the Bundesliga, they will be very focused on the UCL, a competition where only the best are, now Bayern's motivation is at its highest point, and it's also as you say, they don't see the Bundesliga anymore like boring, it's very exciting and I think it's gaining a lot of demand and the fans are more and more satisfied.

Bayern Munich will play against PSG today. The match is going to start almost in 2 hours from now. There is a chance that PSG will be able to actually make a comeback against all odds and win. But it is going to be heavily in favor of Bayern Munich because they already have an advantage on aggregate score.

Bayern Munich right now is on the same points as Dortmund in Bundesliga. But of course, I still think it is going to be Bayern Munich who will win the Bundesliga title. We have seen Dortmund show a lot of promises and fade away later previously. So it is kind of hard to trust Dortmund.

Whether it's an advantage or a disadvantage when they are knocked out of the Champions League, because with them being eliminated as you said it will allow them to be more focused and maximize their match in the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich busy in the Champions League. But we also have to look at Bayern Munich in the Champions League first, because they could just follow in the footsteps of their rivals in the Bundesliga.

Union Berlin has done excellently well this season even beyond anyone's imagination including the fans and owners of the German traditional club. It's actually very good to dream big but I also think that some people are expecting the impossible from the team at the end of the season which is the expectation to see them lift the German Bundesliga. Their manager Urs Fischer deserves to be applauded for the fantastic job he has done at the club this season and going by how he has progressed with the team since 2018 he joined them, I think he'll be lifting the Bundesliga title with the club in few seasons to come. Keep the dream alive Die Eisernen......

Union Berlin is surely doing amazing run in both leagues with now they are at third spot because of their last three poor results otherwise I was expecting this season is going to have three-way race for the title but Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund surely having better experience and quality which give them advantage, and they are at the top of the league table with now Union Berlin is struggling for the top four spot specially now their match against Wolfsburg is vital for them as if they want to have chance for the next seasons Champions League hopes they have to win otherwise they can go down with Freiburg and Leipzig are ready to overtake them at the top four which could be surely big setback for them after having best run in this season at the top level.

The following week Bayern Munich will host Augsburg and Borussia Dortmund will face Schalke. In calculating the odds, the top 2 teams should be able to win this match because their opponents are both at the bottom and the difference is very significant. I want to see every week there will be no point widening from these two teams, if that's possible I want to see it until their last game in the Bundesliga and that will be the game that will decide who will be champions this season. Maybe it's too early, but it is my hope.

In both games Bayern Munich against Augsburg and Borussia Dortmund against Schalke, the top 2 teams have a high chance to win and they are both under pressure because if they make a single mistake and else any point during this time the other team can take the first place of the table, especially for Dortmund because they are playing against a team which is in danger zone and this cannot be a hard game for Dortmund.

After Schalke won the last tow games they should also win the next game. Although Dortmund will be the absolute favourites in this match there may be surprises. This game is THE Revierderby. There will be a lot of emotions in this game. For the fans and also for the players.
Dortmund only narrowly won the first leg with 1:0. It was just in time that Schalke won the last two games. This little flight of fancy will have an impact on the Revierderby.

Dortmund were able to beat Leipzig - which had one loss in 22 games (and by the way Leipzig beat Schalke 6-1) so I think Dortmund won't have any problems in this game. And by the way, although I am very upset that Dortmund has dropped out of the Champions League, now the competition in the Bundesliga will become sharper, since apparently Bayern will continue to fight on two fronts, and Dortmund will concentrate on one.

Mathematically, Bayern and Dortmund will share the first place, in terms of points, until they face each others. Meanwhile, in reality, both teams dropped points vs weaker teams.
Bayern lost vs M'Gladbach, you just have to see the awful record of M'Gladbach to see what's mean such defeat. Frankfurt, Koln, Leipzig all made Bayern lose a total of 6 points.
For Dortmund, they didn't lose a game since the resume after the World Cup. They are impressive and they might keep such performance although we tend to see teams made silly mistakes after a long period of successive victories.

Bayern started moderately at the beginning of the 2nd half of the season, but now seems to have repaired the damage nicely. Dortmund is in a good phase at the moment and is really participating in the championship. It should come as no surprise that Union Berlin has fallen back a bit, there was a long period in which everything went well for this team, but now some dents are starting to come into play here and there, resulting in some disappointing results. RB Leipzig may also be quite close to the championship, but it still feels like they are very far away. The title battle is between Munich and Dortmund, basically the 2 superpowers of German football for decades. It could be that Bayern also had some bad luck in the beginning of 2023, what they showed in the last games looked very convincing at times.

[jostorres]

Bundesliga is the only way for dortmund to get trophy. I see no reason for dortmund to not focus with bundesliga. Dortmund's players look so arrogant during the match against chelsea but they must move on. They have another chance that will come next season. The next match gonna be easy match for dortmund but i don't even wanna underestimate schalke as schake is having possibility to force the result from the match to be draw.
It seems like that if terzic wanna try to use bundesliga as a way to make bring back again the spirit and mentality from its players. Dortmund has a very good odds at this moment too.

After shocking exit from the Champions League now Borussia Dortmund is having another challenge in Bundesliga with currently they are having same points with leaders Bayern Munich just goals difference is bringing them to second spot but now if they want alive their hopes for the title they have to give their best which is possible because now burden is already ended, and they are having enough rounds in this season for giving their best.

But, now their first challenge is Schalke which is currently having six matches streak without losing and concede only one goal from their last six matches which is amazing stuff now here if Dortmund is having positive result then surely Bayern Munich will also feel heat and things match this season entertaining but if Schalke able to hold Dortmund then surely this could be bad news for the visitors but surely big boost for the struggling Schalke which will be able to stay here in Bundesliga after having the worst result in long run in this season.

[Distraction]

I really didn't understand how Dortmund managed to be that much bad in the second leg of the Chelsea matchup. They were eliminated so easily but I guess they can increase their focus level in the Bundesliga after this result.

They had better focus on it while they are maintaining their chance for the Bundesliga title after so many years. Maybe their priorities are different normally but they just can't throw away their championship chance at this point. They have already been on an amazing run in the league as you know. Their next match is called as a derby match maybe but I don't believe Schalke can steal any point from Dortmund. It is true that there is an improvement in Schalke's recent results. But I still think their job about defending Dortmund attackers won't be easy even though there are some missing players such as Adeyemi, Brandt and Moukoko.

Schalke's performance in last six matches is surely the biggest shock of this last month February with no one was expecting results and performance like this from them in Bundesliga in this season after having historic embarrassing results in throughout season now they are going to face Dortmund which is currently having the best form with shocking defeat against Chelsea and now if they have not favorable result here in this match then surely things could be troubling for them in this season for their hopes of win title but surely could be amazing for the Schalke because they need this match as their streak, and surely they could be out of the relegation zone which is going to be amazing for the all team and coaching stuff here surely things are never been easy, but their performance in last six matches is surely impressive with having concede just one goal in six games mean Dortmund have to done more than their sources.

The good news about Dortmund getting knocked out of the Champions League by Chelsea is they can focus on the Bundesliga and challenge for the title.

I don't think this has any impact even though they have already been eliminated from the Champions League title but for the bundesliga competition I still don't have any expectations for Dortmund.

Indeed, I don't think that Dortmund and most of us will think it's good news. The good news is if a club is able to continue its involvement in a very prestige champion, UCL. But now Dortmund has been defeated by Chelsea. I am sure that Dortmund will feel very disappointed about the result. But exactly, it must be going on and Dortmund must focus on Bundesliga right now. The point is similar to Bayern. SO in this case, Dortmund also has a high chance to win the trophy.

Union Berlin's performance this season is very good compared to previous years. And since the start of the season, they have managed to hold the top spot in the points table for a long time. This is truly commendable. But if we compare the performance of Union Berlin with Bayern Munich and Dortmund, the two first-tier teams of the Bundesliga, then Union Berlin will be far behind.
Union Berlin's forwards are not strong enough. I think Union Berlin's good performance is due to their coach's excellent match strategy. Their squad is also not strong enough. I think if the team can qualify for the Champions League, Berlin management will build a strong squad next season. The Bundesliga may become more competitive in the future.

Union Berlin this season has reach to their top performance and i think people were never imagined before that they can able to get first position on standings league before Bayern can overtake their position and i think their process to being an strong contender for champion league zone were very rapid that it took only 4 years since promote from Bundesliga 2 and now Union Berlin can compete with famous clubs such as Dortmund and Leipizg and one thing for sure their manager didn't required big money to build solid squad 
Union Berlin last season can able to finish at 5th on bundesliga standings and if we see their current performance i am sure they can achieve higher position this season even probably playing at champion league for next season and for european competitions Union Berlin can successfully to qualified to round of 16 and for europa league this is their best achievement

As the season began, Union Berlin impressed many people by their performance during this season. However, in reality, they did not have the same amount of potential as the teams such as Dortmund and Bayern Munich, and they did not have to invest as much in their team as these two teams did. Hence, Union Berlin does not have as much potential as these two teams. However, they are still in third place at the moment.

Union Berlin impressed everyone with their excellent match tactics. The Berlin team was not strong. But the team was able to consistently perform well due to a stable match strategy. In fact, they have been at the top of the points table for a long time, leaving Dortmund and Bayern Munich behind. Berlin coach Fischer has to be thanked for this. However, if this team strengthens their attack next season, I think they will be able to challenge Bayern Munich for the title. Their only weakness this season is attack. They need an experienced striker.

Dortmund got a good news from Bayern Munich which went through a round of 16 in Champions League. Their competitor (Bayern) will have to play at least two more serious matches in Champions League. They will have at least two weeks lack of full concentration in Bundesliga that will be great chance for Dortmund to exploit it and create their advantage in a dual race with Bayern in Bundesliga.

Flag is given to Dortmund but will they be able to turn to given flag to real advantage?

After shocking exit from the Champions League now Borussia Dortmund is having another challenge in Bundesliga with currently they are having same points with leaders Bayern Munich just goals difference is bringing them to second spot but now if they want alive their hopes for the title they have to give their best which is possible because now burden is already ended, and they are having enough rounds in this season for giving their best.

It is not a big shock at all even Dortmund took a lead after a first leg. Because Chelsea are big name in Champions League and their squad is full of star players. In history of Chelsea, we saw they suddenly wake up in Champions League during crisis in Premier League. It makes senses because Champions League is very valuable experience and chance to win it is like one and only chance in career of each player. Players are more fully ready to fight hard in Champions League no matter how conflict is bad in their club.

Schalke was getting good results in the previous matches. Dortmund is still trying to wake up after it has been losing against chelsea at the Stamford bridge. The loss against chelsea may affect the performance of dortmund. I think that the match between dortmund against schalke will be ended in a draw. The fact that it's very difficult to predict the match between dortmund against schalke. Schalke may be still sitting at the bottom place but it can't be an underrated team at this moment.
Schalke was sometimes giving a tough game for the club that placed at the top place.

[Majestic-milf]

 What a big win for the champions of the Bundesliga [Bayern Munich] I never believed they could find a way to shut PSG and Kylian Mbappé last night without scoring a goal after see him firing up in face of goal and becoming PSG all time goal scorer. Bayern has only one plan after the first leg with a 1-0 victory and that was to come out in there best form and I wish this victory would make them become that team that's hungry for a win in every game being played in there next game against Augsburg.

 IMO I don't think 13th place Augsburg won't be a problem for the league leaders since Dortmund are still behind at 2nd position and the competition is even getting very hot for Bayern at this moment but can the injuries at Dortmund allow them keep up the pace? Time would tell. Well for Bayern it would be business as usual, big win massive score line and they are getting all 3pts against Augsburg this Saturday.

But the current comparison is still too far I think.
Dortmund's condition clearly can only focus on the Bundesliga and focus on being in position 2 because indeed looking at the current conditions even though they are already in that position, several possibilities can still occur.
On the other hand, they are also still very focused on disturbing Bayern until now so I think a big chance for 3 points for Dortmund is definitely possible.
Even if they have experienced a bad condition in the Champions League, there is no reason for them to fail in this match.

Accepting defeat from Chelsea will certainly affect the Dortmund team's locker room, moreover this defeat has knocked them out of the Champions League so Dortmund players are very disappointed because they cannot continue to the next round of the Champions League title race, but next week they must show their best performance in the bundesliga league when meeting the schalke team especially both teams really need full points at the meeting if the dortmund team will win the match they will overtake the bayern muchen team who are at the top of the standings and if the schalke team wins it will get them out of the relegation zone so this match will be tough for both teams.
