Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[MarjorieZimmermanGinger]

You're right. Leverkusen played very well today but they are unlucky, they just scored 1 goal and got a draw. They were very dominant, they won the ball possessions 69% and made 23 total shots. It is something impressive, it is like Barcelona or Man City playing in their best form. However, Leverkusen players need to improve their quality in attacking, specifically for shoot accuracy.

Dortmund is lucky to score 1 goal quickly. If they didn't score quickly in this match, I'm sure they will have no chance to score goal. In the early match, Leverkusen seems still not playing aggressively.

Leverkusen played well in the early minutes of the match and they were even able to dominate the match quite dominantly. The quick goal scored by Ryerson made the intensity of the game more exciting and Leverkusen tried to put pressure on the Dortmund defense area in the first half, but a number of opportunities were still not converted into goals. It was only in the second half that Leverkusen were able to equalize through Boniface so that the match became even more pressing, but unfortunately there were many opportunities which in the end were not successfully exploited by the Leverkusen players including shooting accuracy.

Dortmund's performance in this match was quite different from when they faced AC Milan and I don't see Dortmund as title contenders in this match because they had quite a hard time keeping up with Leverkusen's match which was quite solid. In fact, if you look at the match against AC Milan, Dortmund's performance was really good and quite neat in playing the ball foot to foot.

In fact, if you look at the match against AC Milan, Dortmund's performance was really good and quite neat in playing the ball foot to foot.

Yes the game against AC Milan was a different ball game. If you check the Champions league game is quiet different from the league games. Dortmund are really far from their best in the domestic league compared to Bayer Leverkusen who are really having a wonderful season. To me Dortmund were really lucky to have gotten a point from this game. I really went in for a Leverkusen win during the weekend but the game took a different dimension.

[Strongkored]

Indeed, Leverkusen way of playing is really impressive. But on matchday 13 Leverkusen was hold to a draw by the Dortmund team, although in that match Leverkusen performance really impressive, but Dortmund was also not bad.
Right now, I'm really worried to Leverkusen. Because now the difference points between Leverkusen with Bayern Munich is three points, but Bayern Munich has the advantage because they have a postponed match. Also, if Bayern Munich can win in the postponed match, then they will also have advantage because their goal difference is more than Leverkusen.

I am quite sure that Bayern Munich will win their postponed match against Union Berlin so that they will take over the position of leader of the standings, but the postponed match has not been rescheduled when it will be held, so Bayer Leverkusen will still be in first position, but there is a second opportunity for Bayern Munich to shift Bayer's position because their competitors will again face a quite difficult match next week against Stuttgart.
Bayer Leverkusen in the match against Stuttgart may not yet experience defeat but if the result is a draw it will again give an advantage to Bayern Munich, so Xabi Alonso has to be aware of this and sometimes it is a sign of decline because his team cannot recover quickly to widen their point lead again with Bayern Munich.

The way Leverkusen are playing is really impressive. Today against Dortmund their performance was again really good. There was a dominant game by Leverkusen but they weren't on their good day on one hand. Because despite trying really hard they still couldn't score more than one goal. Even that equalizer came quite late in the game.

I mean Dortmund could have even won here without showing a decent performance. Because I can't say that they were good at all today. But it is normal to see that because of Leverkusen's great system. Especially in away games your job is much more difficult against them.

Obviously, Leverkusen is considered a difficult challenge for Dortmund at this time. The Ruhr team was pushed down to 5th place in the Bundesliga after only winning 1/4 of their recent matches. The good news is that Dortmund is in good spirits after winning a ticket to continue in the European Cup. Bayer Leverkusen has become a candidate for this year's Bundesliga championship. It's no exaggeration to say that Leverkusen is the team with the highest form in Europe at the moment. They almost won all the matches they participated in.
The pressure that Leverkusen players created in front of Dortmund's goal was huge in this match. This draw is a blessing for the Dortmund team. Leverkusen temporarily holds the top spot with 3 points more than Bayern Munich. However, Bayern Munich still has one more match left.

Yesterday's match matched what I had previously thought if there would be a draw but Dortmund's chances of winning were more certain but it ended in a draw and I admit that this season Leverkusen has been a strong club for Dortmund but in the past Leverkusen was too easy for Dortmund, it's just that this season The situation is different and since Xavi became coach at Leverkusen there have been many positive changes and this time Leverkusen is in the sky.
But to speculate which club will get the Bundesliga title seems too early because Bayern Munich still has a chance to catch Leverkusen in points and this will last until the end of this season and there are still other challenger clubs who are trying to continue to improve their performance and will shift the position of the two clubs in the rankings. first and second.
Dortmund could be the next challenger to Bayern Munich, which makes Tuchel have to be more careful not to make mistakes.

No one doubts that Bayern Munich can win their postponed match against Union Berlin, in terms of quality Bayern Munich is much better.
However, it is still too early to say anything about the title, this season is still quite long and indeed Leverkusen's draw against Dortmund is profitable for Bayern Munich to be able to replace Leverkusen at the top of the Bundesliga standings.

Leverkusen's draw against Dortmund was very fair for both teams, even though Leverkusen played better in this match, it must be admitted that Dortmund's defense worked very well in this match.
And this is a match between 2 top Bundesliga teams so of course it's fierce and it's only natural that the result is a draw, that's fair enough for both teams.

I've watch the highlights, both team missed on good scoring chances but they will make up in their last match. Bayer Leverkusen coach, Xabi Alonso time for losing haven't come yet, we will all be surprise when an average team will hand over Bayer Leverkusen first defeats of the season. Borrusia Dortmund was defensive all through the game because it's not an easy run for Dortmund to record a winning against the undefeated Bayer Leverkusen this season. However they still remain unbeaten and paving way for the appropriate paths of securing good winnings.

Looking at the statistics of the match, I think it was a match where Borussia Dortmund should be happy with the 1 point they got. They had a very tough match and Bayer Leverkusen wore them out a lot. They are unlucky not to beat because they created a lot of chances. At least they were not defeated, so we have to think like that. Bayern will be the happiest with this loss.

[topbitcoin]

Nothing can stop Leverkusen to win Bundesliga this year and I will keep this bold prediction for the rest of the season. Sure , Bayern looks strong , healthy and always ready to win but Leverkusen looks more like a team than Bayern in my opinion and this will be a huge advantage when they will face each other later.

Also , Stuttgart really wants to catch an European spot for next year and by the way they are playing right now , they can achieve at least a Conference League spot.

The way Leverkusen are playing is really impressive. Today against Dortmund their performance was again really good. There was a dominant game by Leverkusen but they weren't on their good day on one hand. Because despite trying really hard they still couldn't score more than one goal.

The dominance is quite good from Leverkusen, it's just that yesterday's match Dortmund also defended quite well.
A situation that forces Dortmund to play tactically and not want to take risks so that when Leverkusen are 1 goal behind, they will play fast and Dortmund cannot do anything but survive in this match.
The match was still too one-sided in yesterday's match but I quite like what Leverkusen showed although not with the results because I expected Leverkusen to bring 3 points in this match.
With this 1 point result Bayern now get the chance to narrow their gap and could even overtake Leverkusen as they have a game in hand where previously the match against Union was delayed.

This is not the first match in which Dortmund has acted in this way against a strong opponent, they did something similar in the match against Newcastle. For Dortmund, an away draw is a completely acceptable result, but for Bayer it is a loss of very important points, now Bayern will almost certainly be able to take advantage of these and get ahead of them, although if they win they will be equal on points, but Bayern will have a better goal difference.

I expected Leverkusen to win this match. But despite performing well, Leverkusen could not win. The Dortmund team's performance really pissed me off. Dortmund's players managed to score in just 5 minutes. I thought the match would be very exciting now. But after scoring, Dortmund played a defensive strategy. I think their only job is to prevent the attacks of Leverkusen's players. If Dortmund's players had not played defensively, we probably would have seen more goals in this match and the match would have been more enjoyable.

Of course, Dortmund was more defensive in that match because statistically Leverkusen was able to put pressure on Dortmund throughout the match, Leverkusen recorded 23 shots and were able to make Dortmund's defense even more chaotic with the attacks they carried out. I think they will succeed in winning this match because they played better from the start of the first half but unfortunately the final result was a draw. For Bayern munich, this is an opportunity for them to reclaim the top of the standing if they are able to win in the next match.

Bayern Munich and Leverkusen are almost the same in strength this season because they are so strong when facing each other. Leverkusen has several tough matches in the upcoming matches, such as against VFB and Eintracht Frankfurt. So they have to focus on maximizing each match to get 3 points because if they fail Bayern Munich will be able to crucify them.

Exactly my taught aswell, Dortmund were lucky they were they had an opportunity to secure a point against Leverkusen yesterday, the match was literally dominated by Leverkusen as they did had a brilliant performance that was deserving of a win but it's turned out a draw.

Dortmund had an early in the first five minutes of the game but then I wasn't borderd because I felt Leverkusen was definitely going to get a comeback, but it took Leverkusen some time to get a goal and by the second half I nursed some fears even though I know Leverkusen was doing better but I expected more from them because they had the home advantage and Dortmund aswell wasn't in their best form.

[Velvet78]

Leverkusen are now under the threat of losing the lead to Bayern Munich. Because if Bayern Munich win their missing game they are going to be taking the lead from them. Leverkusen could have won normally but they didn't have a lucky weekend. Despite showing a really impressive performance they had to make do with one point.

But even if Leverkusen lose the lead after this result I don't doubt them about their continuing to be competitive for the league title until the end of the season. They totally deserve to be one of the number one title contenders considering how great they perform.

[Docnaster]

Nothing can stop Leverkusen to win Bundesliga this year and I will keep this bold prediction for the rest of the season. Sure , Bayern looks strong , healthy and always ready to win but Leverkusen looks more like a team than Bayern in my opinion and this will be a huge advantage when they will face each other later.

The Bayer Leverkusen's match against Borussia Dortmund yesterday was a intriguing and entertaining game as the two strong German clubs played out a 1:1 draw. The away side surprisingly took the lead in the fifth minute of the first half of the game and were less than 12 minutes away from the end of the normal 90 minutes time to hand Bayer Leverkusen their first German Bundesliga defeat of the season before they were denied by Victor Boniface's strike in the 79th minute of the game.

After Bayern Munich's game against  Union Berlin on Saturday was postponed, I was thinking Bayer Leverkusen were gonna utilize the opportunity by beating Borussia Dortmund yesterday and extend their lead at the top of the league table to five points but Dortmund proved to be a hard nut to crack for the home side. However, a draw is a better result than losing three points to the away team as Bayer Leverkusen still remains unbeaten in the league.

At least they didn't lose this match, because if I look at the course of the match I can say that Leverkusen deserves to be able to win this match. They lost everything in this game, but they were lucky enough to score an early goal in the 5th minute, although in the end they had to defend to withstand Leverkusen's atacks. In the frst half they did a good job, but it's like that, no matter how strong they defend, if they continue to be attacked, it will create an opening too and that happened in the 79th minute when Leverkusen could create a goal to equalize the score.

~snip~

Xabi Alonso has been able to earn a qualified manager's badge for himself as a consequence for the positive impact he's made for the team. His skillset and in total managerial ability has put the team at the point they are currently. There's resonance in the team and their performances complement every move each player makes. Xabi Alonso this season has been able to build a threatening squad too.

 In the domestic league, there are top teams and even though these teams stand to challenge Leverkusen, I still uphold the fact that there can be evenness in the performance from both sides. Leverkusen are not seeming to relent in the struggle and watching them play makes it more fun. Such a great team Alonso has been able to mould up this season. They still have games ahead and they still have the competing potential and winning spirit too. Just as Munich, they'd keep making it tough for other teams they may encounter.

If his performance and achievements with Leverkusen for this season can really be realized and he is able to at least get title or runner-up, then it is very likely that Xabi Alonso can get the award as the best coach.
After all, he is still quite young and the career path as coach can be very long for coach like him who has very good strategic planning and player management.
Due to his hard work with Leverkusen, Xabi became one of the youngest coaches with the best performance, making big team like Real Madrid want him to trainer there.
Currently in the Bundesliga the team that seem to be a threat to Leverkusen are Bayern Munich and Stuttgart but in reality Leverkusen is able to surpass them and now Leverkusen has won 11 wins from 13 matches without single defeat.
This achievement is almost the same as Bayern Munich and Bayern will play their 13th match next Saturday against Eintracht Frankfurt because previously the match against Union Berlin was postponed.

Leizpig with a big win over Heidenheim and it was pretty close the entire match. Was expecting a much easier win from Leizpig but ended up struggling a lot . With this win Leizpig goes over Dortmund for that fourth place but is far away from the title race this season.

Yes, Leipzig victory made them beat Dortmund but only by 1 point and in the future they will meet for the 14th match, this will be an interesting match because they can determine who is really strong this season.
Dortmund has home advantage in this match but who knows who will win later.

[rendravolt]

I thought Leverkusen would lose because Dortmund took a quick lead through Ryersson's goal and after that we saw how strong Dortmund's defense was to face Leverkusen's attack. It was recorded that there were so many goal opportunities created by Leverkusen but it didn't result in anything and I think it will be a narrow victory for Dortmund away from home.

But at the end of the match a new equalizing goal was created and Victor Bonicafe saved Leverkusen from defeat thanks to his goal. This draw means Leverkusen failed to widen the gap from Bayern Munich and if in the next match Thomas Tuchel's squad wins then they will overtake Leverkusen with the advantage on goal difference.

[bct_ail]

Heidenheim had some breathing space between the matchdays 4 and 8. But now they are now very close to the danger zone again. Only 2 points away from place 16. Although it must be said that the last opponents, apart from Bochum, were not easy opponents. Their next opponent is Darmstadt. A game between two promoted teams from Bundesliga 2. Both nedd desperately a win.

[QueenVera]

No one doubts that Bayern Munich can win their postponed match against Union Berlin, in terms of quality Bayern Munich is much better.
However, it is still too early to say anything about the title, this season is still quite long and indeed Leverkusen's draw against Dortmund is profitable for Bayern Munich to be able to replace Leverkusen at the top of the Bundesliga standings.

Leverkusen's draw against Dortmund was very fair for both teams, even though Leverkusen played better in this match, it must be admitted that Dortmund's defense worked very well in this match.
And this is a match between 2 top Bundesliga teams so of course it's fierce and it's only natural that the result is a draw, that's fair enough for both teams.

Well the thing is that, now that Bayern Munich have discovered that they've got a very tough rival(Leverkusen)that could put an end to their Dominance in the Bundesliga liga, I don't think they would want to joke with any team, whether playing against a mediocre or tough opponent, and now Leverkusen have closed the gap by getting a draw I think I that would boost their confidence to remain consistent and get past Leverkusen.

 Leverkusen to grown in the Bundesliga to become a threat to every team and even the league giants  Bayern Munich, all thans to their manager Xabi Alonso and his good philosophy, well Dortmund really tried to get a draw against them, it shows how serious they're for the title race but anyways I think the main race for the title this season is between two teams, Bayern Munich and Leverkusen.

[klidex]

Looking at the statistics of the match, I think it was a match where Borussia Dortmund should be happy with the 1 point they got. They had a very tough match and Bayer Leverkusen wore them out a lot. They are unlucky not to beat because they created a lot of chances. At least they were not defeated, so we have to think like that. Bayern will be the happiest with this loss.

At least it was a good result for Dortmund because they didn't experience defeat. Bayer Leverkusen is not an easy opponent at the moment because Xabi Alonso has prepared a mature strategy to face Dortmund especially since Leverkusen is playing at home. Of course, Dortmund is experiencing pressure from Leverkusen fans watching the match. and Dortmund managed to maintain a tight defense so that Leverkusen did not score the winning goal.

And the draw result is a good opportunity for Bayern Munich to occupy first place, especially since Bayern Munich still has 1 match postponed with Union Berlin. Bayern Munich will definitely win it and for the time being we will wait for the results of Bayern Munich vs Eintracht Frankfurt this weekend. Bayern Munich will definitely win it even though they will have the same points as Bayer Leverkusen but Bayern Munich is superior in goal productivity.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Today is yet another day for Leverkusen to most likely keep their record of unbeaten, the match has ended in a draw and Leverkusen was able to still maintain their record of staying unbeaten since this season, I see them as the better side in this match as they did played well enough.

Leverkusen has been able to maintain their position on the table staying at the top with 35 pints as against 32 points that Bayern Munich currently have, they are three points ahead of Munich but if they had won against Dortmund, they would have been ahead by five points and will be having 37points, but subsequently Leverkusen will have to get some more wins to be able to further stau ahead of Munich by a good margin which cannot be surpassed soon.

The draw wasn't enough of they're to win the Bundesliga League Competition. Big games like this you try to show strength and grab all the important points. It's not a bad results though, they should make sure they win against all smaller clubs. Borrussia Dortmund did better in this game though. I ain't seeing nobody given them credits for this game they should have won but Bayern Leverkusen fought hard to salvage a point. Bayern Munich should have gone on top if they had played that game against Koln on Saturday.

Bayern Leverkusen though be having busy next five fixtures. They have to do all they can to make sure they remain consistent. The transfer window also coming up, they should try hard to be active.

Bayern Leverkusen was unbeaten so far in the Bundesliga and it seemed they were not going to lose, Bayern Leverkusen was about to lose the bad they had against Dortmund and because of the early goal Dortmund scored in this match and it seemed Bayern Leverkusen was about to lose this record but in the last minutes of the games they got a draw to don't lose the full three points of this match.

Okay, @Weawant the result of that match was pretty surprising for me. I definitely did not think that Leverkusen was going to have a draw against Dortmund. This was quite unexpected. And now it is going to be easy for Bayern Munich to win the next match and become the first placed team on the table. It is also going to be very hard for Leverkusen to get back to the first position of the table if that happens. I think all of us were just praising Leverkusen a little too much. That's why this is happening. But still, it is very early to say anything. Let's see what happens in the next match with Bayern Munich.
