Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Phoenix Anka]

It is already 3 days ago, but it is still a nice and beautiful tradition that I would like to mention here. Since 2003, the Christmas carol sing has been taking place in the stadium from Union Berlin shortly before Christmas. In the beginning there were only 89 fans, now there are over 28500 fans singing christmas songs.

I must say it is a nice tradition. With thousands of fans singing Christmas carols, this tradition of Union Berlin makes them very sympathetic. They are not having a good season in the German Bundesliga, but they have continued to continue this good tradition. I think Union will come into its own in the league soon.

The beauty of the football game is that Bayern Munich do not even need to beat Bayer Leverkusen, not at all. Bayern munich just needs to get maximum points whenever Bayer leverkusen drops points and the 4 points margin will vanish. Also, recall that Bayern Munich has a game advantage because they have played one game less than other teams in the league.

The title charge is on!!!

Bayern Munich's advantage is that they have good squad depth, but that doesn't guarantee that everything will go well until the end of the season. Leverkusen is more than that, they have a squad that is in its prime and also a young coach who has a modern vision in football, so as long as Leverkusen's strategy cannot be read by Bayern Munich or other teams, they will continue to move forward without losing. I don't doubt this considering that many big European teams are waiting for the arrival of Xabi Alonso and he is the coach who can revive Leverkusen since last season and this season they have far exceeded anyone's expectations. So, Bayern Munich should start to be wary of their chances of winning the title again this season because it could be stolen by Leverkusen.

Bayern Munich should be very careful this year because Borussia Dortmund, with whom they competed last year, was losing a lot of points, but this Leverkusen is very different from them. Xabi brought the team into harmony. Leverkusen is now starting to chant the championship loudly. Fans are excited. They can end Bayern Munich's championship hegemony this year.

They have their own way of celebrating Christmas parties, this method is very unique and not often done in other stadiums. Just correct me if I'm wrong. Union Berlin fans can feel the sensation of a beautiful Christmas by decorating Christmas knick-knacks in the stadium area, slowly this celebration is becoming more and more of a tradition every year, this method can make supporters feel closer to the players and can also increase the enthusiasm of the players because they always get full support from the supporters.

Union Berlin has very loyal fans and even they are supporters who also contribute to the club. They even worked together to build the stadium for their favorite club. This is a great tradition and it has a positive impact on Union Berlin as well.
Now that they are at the bottom of the table due to a decline, hopefully with traditions like this it makes them more excited to play better in the upcoming matches. Union Berlin are lucky to have fans who have their own way of suporting them.
The interesting thing in football is not only the game, but also the various forms of suport for the club by the supporters.

I don’t think we can say clearly who can win the Bundesliga right now, okay!. I mean Leverkusen is looking super consistent with their performance. But you know the biggest hurdle for them is that Bayern Munich is who is on the chase and they are only 1 point behind. To get ahead Leverkusen needs to fumble only in 1 match so that Bayern Munich can get ahead. It is still a 50-50.  The question is can Leverkusen keep their consistency? If they can, there is no one stopping them.

Being one point behind Bayern Munich is very vulnerable to being overtaken by Bayern Munich, this is where mentality is needed and Bayer Munich has proven it so far but not Leverkusen. It is true that currently Leverkusen has recorded an unbeaten record in the Bundesliga, but this cannot guarantee that they will be consistent at the end of the season because the Bundesliga is still very long, there are possibilities that undesirable things could happen, such as players getting injured or players being tired.

Moreover, we know that this season Bayer Leverkusen will also focus on the European league, of course this will make it even more difficult for them to be consistent because their players are limited, meaning their players are not as good as the main players. This is different from Bayer Munich, they have complete players even though they play in the UCL league, but they are experienced in dealing with busy schedules. But whatever it is that will be a factor in winning the Bundesliga, those who are good at maintaining the players' fitness

Nothing can be said now about who will win Bundeliga trophy because we no that Bayern Munich still have an outstanding match against Union Berlin which I believe that Bayern Munich will win the match and they will arrived at the same points with Leverkusen, so right now the Bundeliga trophy winner can not be predicted because the two teams are very consistent in their performance, non of them will wish to lose any matches right now,, Bayern Munich defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt really affected in taking over the top.

It's lucky for Bayern Munchen because they still have one match postponed against Union Berlin. I think if Tuchel squad can secure full points then they will collect 41 points, 1 point behind Laverkusen who are above them. Union Berlin have slumped very drastically this season, when compared to their performance last season, when they managed to finish in fourth place in the standings and appear in the UCL this season.

If there are no further schedule changes, the match between Bayern and Union Berlin will be held at the end of January. On paper I am sure Bayern will be able to finish the match easily. However, that doesn't mean ruling out the possibility of surprises, like the surprise experienced by Bayern previously against Frankfurt.

I agree with you, at the moment it is still very difficult to guess who will be on the podium at the end of the season, considering that there are still many matches left that have not been played. The consistency of Laverkusen and Bayern in the race to win the trophy is very fierce, so until the point gap becomes wider, it is still difficult for us to guess the chances of one of the teams winning the trophy.

[Silence Scream]

This season the competition is much different from before, Laverkusen improved performance and their consistency in leading the Bundesliga standings have so far made them the favorite team. But that doesn't necessarily negate Bayern Munchen status as rulers, and we know that its dominance is not easily broken for many reasons, one of which is the depth of the squad which is better than any other team. The competition for the top four in the standings involving several teams at once is very interesting, but I think the existence of Dortmund, Stuttgart and Leipzig only disrupts the hunt for trophies and the consistency of Laverkusen and Bayern Munchen.

Xabi Alonso does not have as good squad depth as Tuchel, but his strategy in bringing out the best potential in players is worth admitting. In terms of the rotation options that Xabi has, it is a bit worrying that if they are hit by an injury storm, it could make Laverkusen lose his balance. On the other hand, it is very possible for Laverkusen to record an unbeaten record throughout the season if avoided from the storm of injury, as well as win its first Bundeliga trophy this season.

Bayern Leverkusen going into half of the season and sitting ontop of the league though not comfortably yet because there’s still Bayern Munich who are on their trail. Now Bayern Leverkusen are pretty good byt Bayern Munich are known as traditional winners of this league and they’ve a wide range of experience on this league. Now for this top race, between Leverkusen and Munich any slip off them would be a victory margin for the other.

 In terms of squad depth, I think I’ll give it to Leverkusen and not Bayern because Bayern currently aren’t doing all great and they’re not even hitting much goals but Leverkusen are all great and can keep hitting this winning streak for a while. Yes for other top 4 spots we’ve got teams like Dortmund and Stuggart but I know they won’t be coming close to Bayern Munich and Leverkusen..

I don’t think we can say clearly who can win the Bundesliga right now, okay!. I mean Leverkusen is looking super consistent with their performance. But you know the biggest hurdle for them is that Bayern Munich is who is on the chase and they are only 1 point behind. To get ahead Leverkusen needs to fumble only in 1 match so that Bayern Munich can get ahead. It is still a 50-50.  The question is can Leverkusen keep their consistency? If they can, there is no one stopping them.

I think what will keep the rivalry alive are the matches between Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich. The scores in these matches will directly affect the championship. In addition, the performance of teams such as Frankfurt and Dortmund, which can prevent them, will also be decisive. I would like Bayer Leverkusen to win. The championship needs a change now.

I think that indeed the biggest hurdle for Leverkusen for the moment is to get back out of the Christmas break and win the first game against Augsburg. The interruption seldomly benefits teams like Leverkusen when they are running like clockwork. If they can get out of the break and instantly beat Augsburg, it would be so important for the rest of the season. Psychologically I am a bit afraid because Bayern starts into the second half of the season with a home game, which they are unlikely to tie or lose. This could create some negative momentum, but of course I hope for Leverkusen to continue with their impressive performances.

All these factors you think will affect Leverkusen are likely to affect Bayern Munich as well because they are all players that might go through the same process of regular playing and might all get injured. Bayern Munich will only have the experience of being a big team, but in terms of player quality, they are not the same, but Leverkusen have quality players that can compete for the title. Only the AFCON competition, I think, will affect Leverkusen most because one of their key players, Boniface, will be going to his country's duty to represent Nigeria; he is a special player in the team, which is why it may affect them, but that is not also a challenge because they surely have his replacement. This same AFCON will also affect Bayern Munich.

[QueenVera]

No one can say who can win the Bundesliga right now when the fact there is only one point gap in the title race. The consistency of Leverkusen is undoubtedly a key factor in their current standing, but the presence of Bayern Munich with just one point behind adds an element of uncertainty to the race. But it's hard to "super consistent" when they just have one point gap to their competitor.
The 50-50 scenario you describe emphasizes the delicate balance in the competition. If they can avoid stumbling in crucial matches, they have a strong chance of securing the title.

But then, Bayern Munich's track record and experience in title races make them a competitor who can put extra pressure, they are kind of a team who can capitalize on any slip-ups from their competitors. The question of whether Leverkusen can keep their consistency is central to the title race narrative. If they manage to do so, they have the potential to emerge as champions.

Currently, Leverkusen's consistency has put them in the top contending spots for the Bundesliga title. Even though it's not so certain yet as there are still games to determine the victor, there's every possibility that there may be change of hands this season.
Munich are doing their best to match up the intensity of contest Leverkusen are putting forward.

 Definitely they can hold onto the pressure for a while and for Leverkusen, they are not resilient in pursuing that major aim. Alonso and his squad aren't giving up and weekly they put up a whole different energy towards that trophy race. The time is sure going to be tough for all their opponents and the games will go almost to the last end before a victor can be confirmed. Let's sit back and watch as the second chapter of the league tournament unfolds.

This year, I think Leverkusen will receive a lot of support from outside Germany. I don't want to see Bayern Munich win the championship anymore. The league has become very boring now. 2024 will be very important for Bayer Leverkusen. If Xabi's system works, they will win the championship at the end of this year and remain the team that eventually eliminated Bayern. However, Bayern is very strong and the rotation pool is very wide. They have an ultra-spectacular striker: Harry Kane. That being the case, Bayern is still the biggest favourite.

In addition, the performance of teams such as Frankfurt and Dortmund, which can prevent them, will also be decisive. I would like Bayer Leverkusen to win. The championship needs a change now.

Bayern Leverkusen, if they continue to play like this, it is not impossible that Xabi Alanso will bring Bayern Leverkusen to destroy Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga this season, and I'm sure many Bundesliga fans also hope that this season a new champion will be born because Bayern Munich's dominance has been too long, very boring.

However, apart from the rivalry between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen, there is something more interesting in my opinion as a Bundesliga fan. I see the Stuttgart club this season as crazy, VfB Stuttgart almost got relegated from the Bundesliga last season and are currently third in the standings just below Bayern Munich and above Liepzig. Apart from that, they also have a striker who is hungry for goals at the moment, namely Serhou Guirassy. So far he has managed to collect 16 goals in 13 matches, this is crazy talent. This season VfB Stuttgart Going from almost being relegated last season to suddenly this season they managed to get a place in the Champions League is not something amazing at this time.

The good thing is Xabi Alonso has a system that works, the bad thing is that systems stop working when the things that made the system work are gone. This is what could turn into a problem for Alonso when his players leave for the games with their national teams. There can also be injuries, which if a key player is affected cannot be underestimated as hardly any team has the player resources like Bayern Munich to make up for that without losing quality. The question about the validity of the system has been answered, it works. But whether all parts remain intact is the question now.

Suttgart has analysed their last season very well and learned a lot from their mistakes. But nobody would have thought that they would be so good. The current season is like night and day compared to theier last season. It looks like they will finish this season in the top 4. But they will probably not be competing for the German Championship.

I think the performance of Suttgart was perfect so far in this season but the fact about this team is mostly about the players they have, I think one good reason for Stuttgart to have this good performance during this season to get the good results was mostly Serhou Guirassy and in the games they didn't have this player Stuttgart couldn't have good performance in Bundesliga.
However, I don't think if Stuttgart can ever win the Bundesliga title considering the performance we see from Leverkusen and Bayern Munich.

[TopT3ns]

The good thing is Xabi Alonso has a system that works, the bad thing is that systems stop working when the things that made the system work are gone. This is what could turn into a problem for Alonso when his players leave for the games with their national teams. There can also be injuries, which if a key player is affected cannot be underestimated as hardly any team has the player resources like Bayern Munich to make up for that without losing quality. The question about the validity of the system has been answered, it works. But whether all parts remain intact is the question now.

Injury is one of the risks that can occur when conditions on the field are not conducive, so that playing on the field becomes unhealthy and unpleasant. However, Xabi Alonso must still have a backup strategy to still win the upcoming match in January next year. At least there is still sufficient time to recover the condition of the injured players, and there is sufficient time for Xabi Alonso to find a solution to the problem that is currently affecting him.

[temple]

indeed this is just a temporary rumor but it could happen in the next season but what is certain is that Xabi wants to stay until Leverkusen is able to get the title he wants so that when Xabi goes to Real Madrid Leverkusen will have success without feeling disappointed when the coach leaves him because Leverkusen can be as strong as this because they received support from Xabi and got the right strategy, even Leverkusen was almost able to break dominance of this bundesliga giant thanks to Xabi, who currently has very good intelligence.
of course, before losing this best coach, Leverkusen will look for new coach early before Xabi leaves and I am still a little unsure Leverkusen will let Xabi go because in several seasons Xabi has been the best coach.

I doubt that there is such a thing as a superordinate agenda where people genuinely care in the football business that the clubs or players they leave behind can look forward to a safe and successful future. I would like you to be right, but this is too much of a utopian, hardcore business driven football world where it is all about making cash. If Alonso gets an offer and Real Madrid wants him and is willing to pay a fee to get him released, your scenario will collapse like a house of cards. I wonder if Alonso's contract, which expires in 2026, allows him to leave the club considering specified requirements.

There is a race between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen, but when we look at both teams, Bayern Munich has the better squad. Bayern is not affected much by injuries, but this could have a bad impact on Leverkusen. If Bayer Leverkusen wins the championship this year, it will be more valuable than any other team's championship.

Yes, I think Bayern Munich has the advantage that Leverkusen doesn't have which is having a really good squad depth. Even if some important player of the main 11 of Bayern Munich gets injured, they don't have much to worry about but on the other hand, if a very important player from Leverkusen gets injured I think Leverkusen will be in big trouble.  So that is also a reason why I don't think that Bayern Munich is not so worried about being behind in terms of points. But I believe one person is certainly worried and he is Harry Kane  . He came here for the sole purpose of being able to win a trophy.

Xabi Alonso have become one of the good coaches to compete with Thomas Tuchel for the league title and he's achieving his aim and there's nothing anyone could do to stop Xabi Alonso who's ambitious and wouldn't relent for anything, definitely not now that he's very close to becoming one of the fierce club to break the dominated territory from Bayern Munich over these years. Bayern Munich have been in good shape over the past decades but this season seems different because Bayer Leverkusen have proven to become different from the rest, they want the Bundesliga title and they go straight for it other than sitting and struggling just like these random mediocre clubs found here in Germany.
