Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[red4slash]

Yes indeed, the match against Augsburg almost ended in a draw because after all, the goal for Bayer Leverkusen also just came in the 90+3rd minute and ya, it was a late goal and took a lot of effort to get. It's also possible that the fact that Bayer Leverkusen's goal machine Victor Boniface is still injured has had a big impact on Bayer Leverkusen's attack . Because ya, if the problem is in that factor, then at least it will make Bayer Leverkusen will also slip later when playing against stronger teams. Therefore, there is still no definite guarantee for Bayer Leverkusen to be able to maintain the top position of the Bundesliga standings, because at least a decline in performance can happen at any time.

Augsburg's defence in this match was really very good and Leverkusen had a little difficulty in attacking because of the tight defence provided by Augsburg in this match but indeed Leverkusen's hard work finally paid off because Palacios' goal at 90+4 really started from mature cooperation and in my opinion it was a very good goal because it started from good cooperation between Leverkusen players.

With this result, they are still very superior with a gap of 4 points because Bayern still haven't played 1 of their matches.
This is really quite good for Leverkusen because they have to maintain the same consistency like this so that Bayern's impressive performance in pursuing the points gap can still be dampened with 3 points always achieved by Leverkusen.

Leverkusen continues to show good consistency in every match they play and against Augsburg yesterday, Leverkusen played well even though they were only able to score 1 goal.
Bayern actually has a big chance to overtake Leverkusen, they have a fairly narrow goal difference and if Leverkusen loses just 1 then Bayern will immediately take the top position, Bayern currently really hopes Leverkusen slips, we'll see how Leverkusen will be in the future, will they able to be consistent or they will even lose to a small team.

At least Leverkusen still maintains its position at the top of the standings. Leverkusen plays relaxed because, for him, Augsburg is a team that is easy to beat. Leverkusen also seems to be saving its energy so that something or unwanted things don't happen because it is actually maintaining its position to stay in the winning position. The first is very difficult to do, therefore Leverkusen played very carefully.

Leipzig team has dropped points in the last two matches but this team is not weak at all. Leipzig have a pretty strong squad. The team is now fourth in the table. And importantly, Leipzig's defense is very strong. They conceded 18 goals in 17 matches. Leipzig have one of the strongest defenses in the Bundesliga. And since Leverkusen has several attacking players injured. So breaking down Leipzig's defense will be difficult for Leverkusen at the moment. This match is likely to be competitive.

It is very possible that the match between the two teams will be very competitive, because Bayer Leverkusen also does not want to lose in this away match. So that Leverkusen can continue to maintain itself at the top of the Bundesliga standings and for matters such as injured players in its front line. Of course, Leverkusen will look for ways to choose more appropriate replacements so that their squad doesn't immediately become weak just because their main player is injured.

Leipzig team is strong in home matches. Despite losing 1-0 against Frankfurt in their last home match, their performance was very good, and Leipzig had won their previous four home matches. So Leverkusen will have to play very carefully if they want to secure the three points. Leipzig's attack is also quite strong. They scored 38 goals in 17 matches. If Leverkusen's defense makes a mistake in this match, Leipzig's players will take advantage of this opportunity. I would say 50-50 for both teams to win this match. Although Leverkusen are top of the table, they cannot be considered favourites. Leverkusen has the possibility of losing points in this match.

You see Leverkusen late goal against Augburg as luck, but for me it is a goal that is the result of hard work and also the never give up spirit that Leverkusen has, the 0-1 win against Augsburg makes Leverkusen position quite safe at the moment and like you, I also suspect that the title competition will only occur between Bayer Munich and Leverkusen until the end of the season, the injury suffered by Victor Boniface is a loss for Leverkusen but so far Leverkusen still has quite good replacement players, I think at this time apart from player injuries, absences Players who are playing in the African Cup can of course be the reason for the worsening performance of a team such as Leverkusen or other team.

Regarding Victor Boniface injury, I also feel this is a loss, but back to Xabi Alonso because while at Leverkusen he has emphasized individual player improvement so that he still has a viable replacement option. At least I don't think Xabi will be too worried about dropping points. After securing their position at the top of the standings from Bayern Munich, the point difference is quite narrow namely 4 points. The victory over Augsburg is very beneficial for Leverkusen, next they will face RB Leipzig, a quite troublesome opponent who will definitely not easily get 3 points in that match.

Leverkusen also seems to be saving its energy so that something or unwanted things don't happen because it is actually maintaining its position to stay in the winning position. The first is very difficult to do, therefore Leverkusen played very carefully.

Even though they managed to dominate throughout the 90 minutes, it was not easy for Bayer Leverkusen to get three points at Augsburg headquarters. Several attacks launched by Leverkusen players were thwarted by Finn Dahmen, he appeared strong under the crossbar by thwarting five shots on goal. Leverkusen had to fight until the final minute to win, Finn Dahmen, who was Augsburg's last wall of defense, was unable to thwart the ball heading towards his goal after Exequiel Palacios volleyed after receiving a pass from Grimaldo.

The victory at Augsburg headquarters means that the team coached by Xabi Alonso is still comfortable at the top of the standings, Leverkusen continues to keep its distance from Bayern Munich who sits in second place with 41 points from 16 matches. The Big Match in the Bundesliga will take place on February 11, Leverkusen will have strong guests who will be their rivals in the fight for the title, this game is very decisive for both teams, if Leverkusen manages to win the match, it will be difficult for Bayern Munich to catch up on the points deficit from the top of the standings.

Usually Leverkusen will win convincingly without even having to bother fighting until the last minute. They usually win with certainty and can even lead by a 2 goal difference but what we saw against a weak team like Augsburg was that they really struggled. Maybe Boniface's absence due to injury was quite influential in getting a definite victory but I think this is just how the players can adapt without having a main striker in their attack line.

I think a 4 point lead over Bayern Munich is still quite better than just a 1 point difference because that will make Leverkusen even more cornered. On the other hand, against Leipzig this week will be the next stumbling block for Leverkusen and I think even if they win it will be lucky because Leipzig won't let Leverkusen steal points at home and they also don't want to keep losing like the previous match.

This is a big match for this week, all possibilities are very possible because the defeat of Frankfurt will make Leipzig even more alert and try not to lose points in this match, because it will open up opportunities for their points to be equalized by Dortmund because Dortmund will face Koln, one of the teams that are candidates for relegation.
Bayer Leverkusen must immediately recover from the match against Augsburg where they have high difficulties to be able to get a victory because Leipzig has a different strength from Augsburg and is very likely to disrupt their current achievement, because a draw will be very beneficial for Bayern Munich, and usually Bayer Leverkusen is able to face difficult matches well but without their main striker there will be doubts, and it takes Xabi Alonso's intelligence to find a way to bring his team to win this big match.

Yes, Leverkusen seemed to have difficulty winning in their last match against Augsburg. Leverkusen maintained a very tight defense so as not to concede and that was indeed successfull, but they were only able to create goals opportunities almost towards the end of the match so we can judge if Leverkusen seemed to have difficulty creating goal opportunities without their mainstay striker, Victor Boniface, even so, Xabi Alonso is still trying to maintain the stability of his players so that the players continues to work optimally.

The difference of 4 points is a very small difference because Bayern Munich still has 1 match left. If Bayern Munich has played that match, the points difference will be smaller and Leverkusen will still feel pressured, and the next match will be quite a tough match to get the full 3 points. Leipzig is not a weak club, I predicts the match will be a draw and Leverkusen will take home 1 point in the match.

Augsburg provided fairly balanced resistance against Leverkusen so that Xabi Alonso's men had difficulty finding space to score goals. Augsburg managed to hold Leverkusen until the second half ended, but they conceded in stoppage time so Polacios managed to take advantage of the opportunity to score in the extra minute and Leverkusen could get full points from this dramatic match.

The difference between one point is more precise because Bayern Munich hasn't played his last match so Bayern Munich has a much greater chance. Leverkusen must maintain victory in every match because if it fails Bayern Munich will take over the first position of the standings. It looks difficult, but nothing is impossible as far as Leverkusen does in the Bundesliga and they have to struggle to remain calm.

[bct_ail]

Leverkusen is the only team battling Bayern Munich for this season's Bundesliga title. Leipzig and Dortmund are far behind Bayern Munich and Leverkusen. The title battle is essentially between Leverkusen and Munich.

Several players in Leverkusen's squad have suffered injuries. So I would say their performance is a bit slow now. As we saw against Augsburg, Leverkusen faced a lot of problems despite scoring just one goal. Despite their slow performance, the team is still strong and the players are confident. Also Xabi's match strategy is very good. So it seems that Leverkusen will be able to maintain their winning streak in the upcoming matches.

I look forward to watching Leverkusen's performance against Leipzig next week. The Leipzig team is very strong. Leverkusen are likely to drop points in this match if they don't play well.

Leverkusen has some problems at the moment. They have to do without players who are injured (as you pointed out). And they also have to do without 3 players who are playing in the Africa Cup. Leverkusen have to compensate that and it will not be easy.
Regarding to the game against Leipzig, for me Leverkusen is the favorite. The performance from Leipzig has been rather mixed and not many people expected them to lose against Frankfurt in theier last game.

[rendravolt]

Union Berlin failed to continue its winning streak and this time Freiburg was the obstacle. The match ended in a draw without a winner and for Union Berlin an additional full point is very important for them to immediately move further away from the relegation zone but Freiburg who are the hosts will not let that happen. I think even though in the end the two teams only shared one point, at least it was still good enough to increase their points tally.

On the other hand, it doesn't feel like Freiburg is already in 7th place in the standings and I actually haven't watched their performance for a long time. I think Freiburg will probably still be able to finish like last season and secure a place in European competition. If you look at their opportunities, then I think it can happen and it's just a matter of how Freiburg can survive and not let their guard down at the end of the season because there will always be challenges they have to overcome.

Bookmakers see this game as completely random:

2.45 - 3.48 - 2.69

Apparently they take into account Bayer's losses, otherwise it is impossible to explain why the leader has such low chances. There are still 4 days before the game and if the odds begin to change sharply (at least by 0.15) in favor of one of the teams, then most likely it will make sense to bet on it. I noticed this pattern a long time ago and in fact, such a seemingly insignificant change in quotes means a lot.

[Ndabagi01]

Leverkusen continues to show good consistency in every match they play and against Augsburg yesterday, Leverkusen played well even though they were only able to score 1 goal.

The number of goals a team uses to win a league match is very important to them because it helps them maintain a good position when they are tied with any other team in terms of points. In the case of Leverkusen, the single goal that gave them a victory yesterday was more important to them because of their current position; if they can maintain this form until the end of the season, they will win the Bundesliga. At the very least, if they are unable to score more goals, they should be able to secure three points in each of their matches.

Bayern actually has a big chance to overtake Leverkusen, they have a fairly narrow goal difference and if Leverkusen loses just 1 then Bayern will immediately take the top position, Bayern currently really hopes Leverkusen slips, we'll see how Leverkusen will be in the future, will they able to be consistent or they will even lose to a small team.

Just as Bayern Munich waits for Leverkusen to lose points, so do Leverkusen wait for Bayern Munich to lose points in order to increase their point differential. Both teams are working hard, and I don't see any of them losing points anytime soon, unless they face each other head-to-head. The race for the league title is still wide open, but it is more likely to be decided between these two teams than any other team in the league.

The first is very difficult to do, therefore Leverkusen played very carefully.

There was nothing to make Bayer Leverkusen play relaxed in the match against Augsburg because after all, the reality is that Augsburg managed to play with a good defense. Therefore, it took a long time for Bayer Leverkusen to score a goal in the match. Based on the available records, Bayer Leverkusen had 66% ball possession, 25 goal attempts, 6 shots on goal, 19 shots off goal and 12 corner kicks but Bayer Leverkusen was only able to make 1 goal and that 1 goal also happened in the +90 minute.

So yes, the truth is that Bayer Leverkusen played with great effort in the match but unfortunately, Augsburg also played very well in their defense. Moreover, Bayer Leverkusen's position at the top of the Bundesliga table is also not completely safe so yes, there is no good reason for Bayer Leverkusen to play relaxed. Because anyway, Bayer Leverkusen also still has to keep playing well in all matches played, of course there is no time to relax for Bayer Leverkusen if they want to maintain the top position until the season ends.

But even so Bayern Leverkusen has a lot of injured players so his strength will change a little because the main players don't play, but I think Xabi Alonso is not that stupid even though he lost quite a lot of strength and rested some players, but if compared to his opponent this week against Leipzig with his up and down performance I think the possibility of winning is still open for Leverkusen against Leipzig in the match later, at least stealing one goal or a draw is an option we can take if we want to bet,

This season's competition belongs to Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen, we will see if xabi alonso can stop Bayer Munich's winning streak this season.

The consistency of this Bayern Leverkusen side is as a result of the bond and hard work of the entire team and the coaching staff which has been in the team ever since coach Xabi Alonso took over as head coach, they played against Augsburg last weekend but were only able to win by a lone goal because the Augsburg side proved to be too strong to contain  as they defended so well but couldn't prevent the Leverkusen side from finding the back of the net as a result of constant pressure from Bayern Leverkusen. Bayern Leverkusen have continued to dominate this season in the bundesliga and looks like favorite to lift the title.

But leverkusen tried so hard in beating augsburg. I have been watching the match and this club was so struggling to beat its opponent. Playing without boniface has been greatly impacting the performance from the club. Im concerning about the performance of leverkusen in the previous match.
The backup striker's inability to assist Leverkusen resulted in their performance not being as strong as it was when Boniface was not injured. Xabi needs to reevaluate his strategy caused by it was not fit to the club.

Im also quite often in seeing the players were missing the ball and miscommunication between each other. The problem needs to be solved by xabi as soon as possible. It's caused by leverkusen will have so many matches to come soon.
Club needs to make sure if its players are fully prepared to face the upcoming games. Xabi was putting his main target on the europa league this season. It seems like leverkusen will play in UCL next season.

[Sunderland]

Leipzig team is strong in home matches. Despite losing 1-0 against Frankfurt in their last home match, their performance was very good, and Leipzig had won their previous four home matches. So Leverkusen will have to play very carefully if they want to secure the three points. Leipzig's attack is also quite strong. They scored 38 goals in 17 matches. If Leverkusen's defense makes a mistake in this match, Leipzig's players will take advantage of this opportunity. I would say 50-50 for both teams to win this match. Although Leverkusen are top of the table, they cannot be considered favourites. Leverkusen has the possibility of losing points in this match.

True, Leipzig is one of a strong team when they play at home.
In this season they only lost once in 8 games at home, even Bayern and Stuttgart are not able to get 3 points there.

It will be interesting to watch this match, there must be many goals because Leverkusen will play attacking and Leipzig is good with counterattack.
Also Leverkusen will host Bayern on Feb 11th, a very very important match for both sides.

[Pesona1]

But even so Bayern Leverkusen has a lot of injured players so his strength will change a little because the main players don't play, but I think Xabi Alonso is not that stupid even though he lost quite a lot of strength and rested some players, but if compared to his opponent this week against Leipzig with his up and down performance I think the possibility of winning is still open for Leverkusen against Leipzig in the match later, at least stealing one goal or a draw is an option we can take if we want to bet,

This season's competition belongs to Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen, we will see if xabi alonso can stop Bayer Munich's winning streak this season.

Leverkusen will face one of the strong teams namely Leipzig at the weekend, Leipzig performance is not as consistent as Leverkusen but the problem is that currently Leverkusen is also in poor condition considering that many of their players are absent, the decline in Leverkusen performance was actually seen when they faced augsburg a few days ago, Even though they won the match, but it is clear that losing striker (Victor Boniface) has made Leverkusen attack line a bit blunt at the moment, I think  now is a crucial time for Xabi to be able to maintain his team playing performance and if Xabi can maximize the available reserve players, perhaps the club stability will remain awake, currently I actually see that some of Leverkusen reserve players are not able to perform optimally when their main players are injured and this is a tough task  for Xabi, all this time Dortmund has tried but continues to fail to break Bayer Munich's dominance in the league, I personally really hope that we will find a new champion in the Bundesliga so that we can get rid of boredom after 11 seasons of seeing Bayern Munich win the Bundesliga.

I don't think that the match was easy for them because looking at what they did in this match, they struggled a lot and they even had to wait for extra time because Augsburg defense was very strong and difficult for them to break through.
Fortunately, their teamwork is very good because after all what happened in this match they were actually faced with a pressure situation where they had to remain consistent in terms of performance in order to continue to keep their distance from the pursuit of Bayern who were lurking to get the first position when Leverkusen did not have a good performance.

Next week they will face a quite difficult match because this will be a big match for them where Leipzig is ready to host Leverkusen at the Red Bull Arena. This is definitely not an easy match for both teams especially this is Leipzig's headquarters which will definitely be very difficult to pass.
