Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[naira]

It's evident that Bayern Munich boasts an impressive roster with skilled players, and Tuchel appears focused on pursuing success both in the Bundesliga and the UEFA Champions League. The competition, particularly from teams like Leverkusen, adds excitement to the Bundesliga, but your confidence in Tuchel's ability to navigate these challenges is clear. The experience he brings to the table, coupled with a well-prepared team, instills confidence in overcoming obstacles, but that has truly changed all as Thomas Tuchel and Bayern Munich are now struggling so much, Alonso is a potential threat to the championship that is for sure,

Xabi Alonso progress will not stop here because to continue competing with Bayern Munich it needs to be done until the end of the season. the difference that Leverkusen has temporarily gives them an advantageous position but for Xabi Alonso this is still not  enough because we all know that Bayern Munich  can be more aggressive if  their position is pressed. There is still hope but not 100% that this season Bayern Munich will win the trophy. Leverkusen continues to make many changes and now the difference of 4 points can be said to be a challenge  to whether Tuchel is able to take the Bayern Munich club further or not. The Domestic League that we see now is very favorable towards Leverkusen in terms of stable performance, goal effectiveness and even squad depth. Xabi Alonso is indeed a big threat in the Bundesliga.

Bayern Munchen can only hope for Bayer Leverkussen makes many mistakes in the remaining weeks of the Bundesliga but it will be very difficult for them to make many mistakes as they are running in a great performance and they have yet to lose a game if I am not mistaken,they even won against strong opponents,and they were unbeaten even against Bayern Munchen themselves,so I also exclude them,Bayern Munchen for having any chances to win the title this season.

This is not like the French League or Eredivise where the first place team leads the standings by a very long way in points. Munich is only 4 points behind Leverkusen. And both teams still have to face strong opponents in the League. They will also meet on February 11. So I think Munich's chances of winning the league are still very big. We know Leverkusen is playing very well this season but I see that Munich has a much better squad than Leverkusen so they can rotate their players better and this of course will affect the team's overall performance and mentality.

Bayern Munich is indeed a great team and has a better squad than Leverkusen. But make no mistake, Leverkusen has high motivation and self-confidence this season with everything they have achieved so far. Leverkusen, who have never lost in 18 matches in the Bundesliga, is a good record to increase the team's confidence so that they continue to be consistent and can ultimately end Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga.

4 points difference with Bayern Munich. 4 points is difficult, if Leverkusen loses 1 match then there is still a 1 point difference with Bayern Munich, and Leverkusen's opportunity to add points to Bayern Munich is when they meet each other in February. If in this match Leverkusen manages to beat Bayern Munich, Fix Leverkusen will take the Bundesliga title from Bayern Munich this season.

Bayern Leverkusen's performance this season has been amazing in the Bundesliga league, and that has made them unbeaten in the 18 matches played in the Bundesliga league this season. Bayern Leverkusen is also leading the Bundesliga league table, 4 points clear of Bayern Munich in second place, and they can win the Bundesliga trophy if they defeat Bayern Munich when they meet next month.

We know Leverkusen is playing very well this season but I see that Munich has a much better squad than Leverkusen so they can rotate their players better and this of course will affect the team's overall performance and mentality.

That is why the Bundesliga is more competitive compared to the Eredivisie and Ligue 1. The still narrow difference in points allows Bayern Munich to catch up or even surpass the points that Bayer Leverkusen has collected. The meeting of the two teams will certainly have a positive impact on the team that manages to win this Big Match, Leverkusen can widen the gap with its competitors, while Bayern Munich can cut the gap to one point. I admit that Bayern Munich has a more perfect squad than Leverkusen, but you have to look at it more realistically, Leverkusen performance this season is better than Munich's performance.

[rendravolt]

This will be the only exciting match this week and will also determine who will be able to stay in the top 4 of the standings longer. We know that Leipzig was previously defeated by Leverkusen and they certainly don't want to experience the same result even though this is an away match at Stuttgart headquarters. On the other hand, Stuttgart is also in poor performance because last week they lost to a weak team like Bochum and in the last 5 matches Stuttgart only managed to score one win. In fact, Stuttgart's performance with Leipzig is not much different, but what is clear is that this will be a tense match.

We know that Dortmund is also aiming for a top 4 position this week and they have quite the advantage because they will play Bochum at home and their victory is guaranteed from the start of the match. But as experienced by Stuttgart, I hope Dortmund can be more alert with Bochum and they must win with a large goal difference to secure full points at home.

They both lost the last games they played in the German Bundesliga League Competition and are also both together with a point difference between them.
It's one hard game for the both of themselves right now, Stuggart have been good but we do see them slack down whenever they're without the player Serhou Guirassy.

My prediction for this game is to see them draw and share the points. Liepzig had a good game which should have seen them winning against Bayern Leverkusen and Sessko scoring but all didn't go as planned.

With Guirassy not in the Stuttgart squad, the difference was really felt and their attack was getting weaker. I think Leipzig has quite the advantage because they still have Lois Openda in attack and she is also the temporary top scorer for Leipzig. Moreover, the depth of the Leipzig squad is much more evenly distributed and does not depend on just one person and perhaps Xavi Simons is a player that the Stuttgart players should anticipate.

Maybe a draw could be a pretty convincing result and I think a match like this will result in quite a lot of goals being scored. It is possible that even if there is a draw the result will be 1-1 or 2-2 and as long as they play an attacking game and are less defensive, this result could happen. But rather than betting on a draw, I am more interested in the goal over result and there is no reason for them to play it safe in the midst of heated competition in the top 4 of the standings.

Bayern Munich had a really huge difficulty against Union Berlin despite being in control of the whole game. If it weren't for Guerreiro's goal I don't know if they would have managed to win. There was a goal by Kane which was disallowed later as well. Besides there was some tension between Sane and Union Berlin manager which resulted in Bjelica to get a red card.  

Bayern Munich somehow won maybe but they really need to make improvement in their finishing recently. Because they scored only one goal in these two comfortable games on paper. Otherwise they are already the most scoring team in the league now.

Up in my skull, I saw the game ending either a first half draw or a fulltime draw and it came through during the first half of the game. Union Berlin haven't had a good season overall and it has been that way slightly for em till this point in the second half of the season. Though they just started so we'll definitely see how it be!

I see the creativity of the squads performance has actually reduced overnight, just like I said, the repairs made by Thomas Tuchel are nothing convincing also leading to doubts about his long term stay as head of the coach for Bayern Munich.
For Harry Kane, it's just too early to go on saying he's got goals drought. Ain't it the second game without a goal? I'd say they should look at the creativity of the squad.

You got me wrong. I didn't want to state it like Kane was bad or something like that.    I meant he was nearly going to score in this game as well but he was unlucky to have the goal disallowed.

It would be really cruel to state that Kane is unproductive recently. Because he has scored nearly the half amount of goals his team have in the Bundesliga. It is all about Bayern Munich's playing solid as a team. For two weeks we haven't seen that much as they have had quite much struggles. But I don't think it would last very long.

With everything that's happened in the German league from the start of the season till now. I'm certain that it won't be an easy ride for Munich. Alonso is making the manager's seat hot for him and Tuchel is striving to be meaningful to the team more than he currently is. The team won't want to be submissive to Leverkusen that just came out of the blue, even though it's really not a criteria for Tuchel's job to be retained, he just has to make the team stand out and prevail against Munich.

 The two sides are currently in thesame range and tempo and assuredly, the next few weeks would be heated up for the Bundesliga as both teams would take every game extremely serious.Tuchel has to regain Munich's pride, there's chance for him to do so, he just needs extra effort while hoping on a little of Leverkusen's back slide.

It's undeniable that the German league has been a rollercoaster from the season's kick-off until now. The challenges faced by Munich have added an unexpected twist, making the upcoming matches a far cry from an easy ride. The spotlight on Alonso and the growing pressure on the manager's seat only intensify the drama surrounding the team, Tuchel, on the other hand, appears to be in a constant battle to assert his significance within the team. The struggle to make a meaningful impact has undoubtedly contributed to the current state of affairs. The looming threat from Leverkusen, emerging seemingly out of nowhere, has added an additional layer of complexity to the narrative, Leverkusen is undoubtedly a daunting one for Munich. Despite the fact that Tuchel's job security might not hinge on these specific criteria, the imperative remains for him to elevate the team's performance and secure a triumphant position against Munich's formidable adversaries and that is Leverkusen's coach Xavi Alonso.

For sure Bayern Munich now has a plan to take Xavi Alonso on the team, and I agree with your assessment of the German league's current situation. It seems that Munich is facing challenges, with Alonso adding pressure to the manager's position and Tuchel striving to make a more significant impact on the team. Despite Leverkusen's unexpected rise, Tuchel needs to ensure the team doesn't succumb and instead stands out, especially against Munich. Both teams are currently on par, and the next few weeks in the Bundesliga are likely to be intense as they approach each game with utmost seriousness. Tuchel has an opportunity to restore Munich's pride, but it will require extra effort and perhaps a bit of luck with Leverkusen's performance.

I admit that Bayern Munich has a more perfect squad than Leverkusen, but you have to look at it more realistically, Leverkusen performance this season is better than Munich's performance.

Actually Bundesliga more competitive than Eredivisie or Ligue 1 but since eleven years not any team can't destroy Bayern Munich dominance become the domestic league winner. For this season have difference thing with Bundesliga because Bayern Leverkusen success have consistent performance and manage top standings position behind 4 points left. Indeed not favorable as the Bundesliga winner, Bayern Leverkusen success become the only one teams unbeaten until 18 matches and there are not much problem for Xabi Alonso not better squad than Bayern Leverkusen have spent much money in the last window transfer.

Not large points difference between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen still can't predict who will be closer become the winner, have waiting for several matches later and looking the result for both team who will losses many points.

[KTChampions]

Yes, you are right, but it also works the other way: no matter how well you play, you score a maximum of 3 points, so if Bayer plays well enough, then nothing depends on the efforts of Bayern, since even if they win in a head-to-head meeting, they will behind by one point. In addition, Bayern scored only one goal in two games with a large number of scoring chances, if this is a trend, then with such efficiency unexpected losses of points will be regular.

Even if Bayer Leverkusen can maintain their lead (which admittedly is not really big at 4 points) until the last few games, the question is whether they can withstand the increasing pressure mentally. A good blueprint is Dortmund last year, who had an excellent run and made up 9 points on Bayern and just had to win on the last matchday against a previously weakening team at home to become a long awaited Bundesliga Champion again, but they couldn't withstand the pressure and lost what they thought was a certain championship.

Firstly, 4 points is a huge advantage, those who think otherwise are simply lazy - it's enough to look at how many points the two leaders lose on average per game to realize that 4 points is a lot.
Secondly, Dortmund is a bad example - they always have a large randomness of results no matter what. Even when they are not under potential pressure, they may unexpectedly lose to an underdog. Bayer, after they were led by Xabi, plays smoothly and I don’t see any prerequisites for mental problems (after all, this coach knows everything about this and will be able to support the team psychologically if necessary).

Mostly I have to agree with you.
But you are forgetting 1 thing, history. In Germany Leverkusen has a nickname, "Vizekusen" ( vice ) .
It's because several times in their history they have been there, with a chance to win it all, but they always failed.

Of course this is a different team now but still it might get to their head.
Also 4 points, that's not a lot if Bayern actually starts winning. They still play each other so even if they both win all other games and Bayern beats Leverkusen it's only 1 point. And we know what can happen if the nerves show themselves, we saw it with Dortmund last year.
You are so close, you can feel the cup in your hands already, and then it all comes crashing down.

Actually I am still convinced Leverkusen will throw it away and Bayern will win. I hope I am wrong because I am a Dortmund fan for 30 years now, and I if not BVB I want to see any other team on top other than Bayern, and Schalke of course but they are not relevant playing in the 2nd league.

The Domestic League that we see now is very favorable towards Leverkusen in terms of stable performance, goal effectiveness and even squad depth. Xabi Alonso is indeed a big threat in the Bundesliga.

Just after the new year started I thought Xabi Alonso and his team couldn't have a good performance as they had before and they were going lose some points to let Bayern Munich to decrease the gap and even take their place because we can't forget that Bayern Munich hs winning the Bundesliga title for years in Germany and they won't want to see a team like Leverkusen breaking their records, But even in the game between players of Xabi Alonso and Leipzig while I was thinking that's over and Leipzig is gong to make Leverkusen lose some points, they won the match.

[bering]

For opening match this weekend Frankfurt as a host will playing against Mainz and during this season both teams have displayed unstable performance because whether it Frankfurt and Mainz has gets too many draw results and so far their status as the teams with the most draw in Bundesliga especially for Mainz because until week 17 Mainz only get 1 win and 8 draw so these record makes their position at league standings is not really good because currently Mainz position at relegation zone with only collect 11 points

And for Frankfurt too this team was unable to managed their consistency for each matches especially last week Frankfurt only get draw result from Darmstadt the team who occupy 18th place on league standings and actually on the paper this match should belongs to Frankfurt but i am quite doubt they can able to do that because Frankfurt previously was often to gets poor results everytime they playing against weak teams and the players from both teams is in the good fitness because so far there was no key players from Frankfurt and Mainz who got injured and Frankfurt is the favourite but their recent performance makes me doubt to pick them and my prediction is this match will ended to draw and this option has high odds @3.10 or both teams to scores for safe bet

[HajiBagi]

19th round will start tomorrow and the 19th round will again make it easier for Leverkusen to get full points and remain at the top of the standings with the most points.
In this match, Leverkusen will only meet Monchengladbach, which is lower middle class team, so Leverkusen is clearly the favorite, there is no chance for Monchengladbach in this match.
Moreover, Leverkusen also has home advantage, so it will be easier for Xabi to bring Leverkusen to victory, this will be like wide open path to remaining at the forefront of the title race.
Now we see how enthusiastic all the Leverkusen players are in their training sessions and all this thanks to Xabi performance as coach can really bring great hope for Leverkusen to become champions, this opportunity is big opportunity that was previously difficult for them to get.

I believe in Bayer Leverkusen because they are the only team in the Bundesliga league this season still undefeated. In every game they play, they always play well to win the game, and in my opinion, Bayer Leverkusen will win the Bundesliga league title this season. In the past, bayern Munich used to win the trophy back-to-back, but this season, I don't think Bayern Munich will win the title because of the way they are playing; they have lost like two league matches and Bayer Leverkusen is leading Bayer Munich with four points.

Regarding the match between Bayer Leverkusen and Mochengladbach, it is highly likely that Leverkusen will prevail because of Mochengladbach's poor performance, which has even led some to believe that they can't score goals against Leverkusen. Leverkusen is currently the league favourite, and nothing will stop them from winning the league title this season.

[rendravolt]

If we refer to H2H, it is true that there is a possibility that the result will end in a draw again and I cannot avoid the fact that in the end both teams will have difficulty winning. Frankfurt should be more reliable because they not only play in front of their fans but also have to win if they want to shorten the points gap with Dortmund. The previous draw against Damstadt was quite surprising and they shouldn't have lost full points again in this match.

The need to strengthen the defense line when they are ahead must be the main focus for Frankfurt in this match and as we know in the match against Damstadt, they had to concede in the final minutes of the match and thwart the victory that was in sight. In my opinion, BTTS betting is still the safest at the moment because both teams still want to get points and this is also supported by existing H2H statistics.

[Zigabel]

We should not think that the Bundesliga is not competitive compared to other leagues just because Bayern Munich has continuously won Bayern Munich in the last 11 seasons, but the competition in the Bundesliga is quite fierce and also the strength of the Bundesliga teams is strong enough so this can be proven when the teams from the Bundesliga playing on the European stage.
However, this season it must be admitted that the competition for the Bundesliga title is quite fierce compared to last season and in my personal opinion, Bayern Munich's percentage of being able to defend the title is smaller than last season.

The competitive nature of the bundesliga this season is really a good and interesting one because we got to point where we always knew Bayern Munich will win the league it did killed our interest in the bundesliga knowing that Bayern Munich will still win at the end of the day, that ability to always been able to predict the winner made the league lost the fun that was supposed to come with the league and every other team except for Bayern Munich, did looked like an average team in the bundesliga because Bayern Munich was always taking the lead ahead of them for morethan a decade.

This new change as at relating to the normal that Bayern Leverkusen is doing, is really making people get some more interest in the bundesliga because for once we want to see a new face lifting the trophy even tho we are not sure yet but they have our support for the fun of the game.

Before this season, the German Bundesliga hasn't been as competitive as any of the top five leagues in Europe for the past thirteen years. The German Bundesliga have been a one-club show for Bayern Munich as they've face little battle from other teams in the league. I'm very much happy that at last, Bayern Munich is experiencing a very strong competition from another German club for who wins the German league title.

Xabi Alonso have actually done a lot of work at Bayer Leverkusen to significantly improve their performance over the last two seasons. Bayern Leverkusen I think is not only a strong contender for the German Bundesliga title but also the favorites to win the league this season

[AprilioMP]

Even if Bayer Leverkusen can maintain their lead (which admittedly is not really big at 4 points) until the last few games, the question is whether they can withstand the increasing pressure mentally. A good blueprint is Dortmund last year, who had an excellent run and made up 9 points on Bayern and just had to win on the last matchday against a previously weakening team at home to become a long awaited Bundesliga Champion again, but they couldn't withstand the pressure and lost what they thought was a certain championship.

Maybe Bayern Leverkusen can do well until the 2023/2024 season ends and become the new Bundesliga champions after Bayern Munich won 11 consecutive seasons.
4 points difference is not a difficult thing for FC Hollywood. And yes, as you said, last season Dortmund failed to maintain their best performance to end Bayern Munich's dominance in winning the title.

If there is one more team besides Bayern Munich, Bayern Leverkusen, that can get points with a narrow margin from them, the 2023/2024 Bundesliga season will be even more interesting in the race for the title.
We hope for Dortmund, but their current performance is also not that good.

[karabiber]

This will be the only exciting match this week and will also determine who will be able to stay in the top 4 of the standings longer. We know that Leipzig was previously defeated by Leverkusen and they certainly don't want to experience the same result even though this is an away match at Stuttgart headquarters. On the other hand, Stuttgart is also in poor performance because last week they lost to a weak team like Bochum and in the last 5 matches Stuttgart only managed to score one win. In fact, Stuttgart's performance with Leipzig is not much different, but what is clear is that this will be a tense match.

We know that Dortmund is also aiming for a top 4 position this week and they have quite the advantage because they will play Bochum at home and their victory is guaranteed from the start of the match. But as experienced by Stuttgart, I hope Dortmund can be more alert with Bochum and they must win with a large goal difference to secure full points at home.

Stuttgart had a great start to this season, but the same cannot be said for 2024. They suffered two defeats in a row as the new year started. The fact that the team's top scorer Guirassy is in the African Cup has upset Stuttgart's calculations. In addition, Katompa and Yeong in midfield and Ito in defense were with their national teams, which set the team back both mentally and in terms of play. Atakan Karazor in midfield will not play against Leipzig due to suspension. Deniz Undav is injured but played 90 minutes against Bochum. He will push himself in this match as well, but he can't meet the expectations by playing injured. Leipzig lost to Frankfurt and Leverkusen in their home games. They are also alarming. However, I think they are playing better than Stuttgart. I think both teams will push each other in this match but there will be no winner.

[khiholangkang]

It is quite reasonable that indeed Bayern Munich can beat their opponent Union Berlin who is experiencing a decline in performance this season, but in my opinion this 1-0 result is a lucky score even though in the count of the game Bayern Munich dominated the match quite well but they did not get more goals in that match.

And vice versa where Union Berlin looked stronger even though they were pushed by Bayern Munich with extraordinary field dominance, but Union Berlin did not give Bayern Munich more goals to slaughter them, it shows that they are getting better day by day, and want to continue to escape the threat of the relegation zone.

It's not luck, but it is indeed difficult for Bayern Munich to score several goals in this match. Of the 10 shots on target, only 1 was a goal and that was enough for Bayern Munich to seal the win and get 3 points. Bayern Munich in the previous match was successfully defeated by Bremen so they were able to return to winning ways when they faced Union Berlin.

How fierce the competition is this season in the Bundesliga because Leverkusen is able to secure this season journey at the top of the standings. I think this season the Bundesliga trophy winner will belong to another team.
After several previous seasons, Bayern Munich was able to maintain its dominance, but this season it looks like another team or Leverkusen has the opportunity to break Bayern Munich's dominance.

Bayern Munich is trying very hard and they are in a situation in which they can't lose even one point because losing only one point can make Leverkusen to win the title at the end of this season and that's why in most of the games we see from Bayern Munich they will play with fully attacking style to win the math. For example in the game against Union Berlin, they won the game with a 1-0 result, but they could even get a better result because of the more opportunities they had.

In that match it seemed that Harry Kane was not as expected to score more goals, however, 1-0 was enough for Bayern Munich to secure three points to be right behind Leverkusen.
Of course, if Bayern Munich does not want to be taken away as Bundesliga champions, it needs to seriously not waste the opportunity to catch Leverkusen who are at the top with a difference of 4 points.

Behind that is also that Xabi Alonso will set his record with Leverkusen this season, so it will be a great competition at the end of the season this time, I do not expect that Leverkusen will have the same fate as Dortmund last season.

[Stable090]

19th round will start tomorrow and the 19th round will again make it easier for Leverkusen to get full points and remain at the top of the standings with the most points.
In this match, Leverkusen will only meet Monchengladbach, which is lower middle class team, so Leverkusen is clearly the favorite, there is no chance for Monchengladbach in this match.
Moreover, Leverkusen also has home advantage, so it will be easier for Xabi to bring Leverkusen to victory, this will be like wide open path to remaining at the forefront of the title race.
Now we see how enthusiastic all the Leverkusen players are in their training sessions and all this thanks to Xabi performance as coach can really bring great hope for Leverkusen to become champions, this opportunity is big opportunity that was previously difficult for them to get.

Bayer Leverkusen is in a situation where they will never like to mess up with any match again, so i believe Bayer Leverkusen will do well in their upcoming match against Monchengladbach. Even if the game becomes tough, I'm confident that Bayer Leverkusen will give their best to win. I think they have a good chance of winning because they've been performing better than Monchengladbach lately. However, in football, you can never be completely sure about the outcome of a match. Sometimes unexpected things happen. So, even though I believe Bayer Leverkusen has an advantage, I can't say for sure that the match will be easy for them.This is especially true as the season is coming to an end, and many teams are becoming stronger in their efforts to finish the season on a high note. It's a crucial time for teams to give their best and secure a good position by the end of the season.

[X-ray]

That is why the Bundesliga is more competitive compared to the Eredivisie and Ligue 1. The still narrow difference in points allows Bayern Munich to catch up or even surpass the points that Bayer Leverkusen has collected. The meeting of the two teams will certainly have a positive impact on the team that manages to win this Big Match, Leverkusen can widen the gap with its competitors, while Bayern Munich can cut the gap to one point. I admit that Bayern Munich has a more perfect squad than Leverkusen, but you have to look at it more realistically, Leverkusen performance this season is better than Munich's performance.

Actually Bundesliga more competitive than Eredivisie or Ligue 1 but since eleven years not any team can't destroy Bayern Munich dominance become the domestic league winner. For this season have difference thing with Bundesliga because Bayern Leverkusen success have consistent performance and manage top standings position behind 4 points left. Indeed not favorable as the Bundesliga winner, Bayern Leverkusen success become the only one teams unbeaten until 18 matches and there are not much problem for Xabi Alonso not better squad than Bayern Leverkusen have spent much money in the last window transfer.

Not large points difference between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen still can't predict who will be closer become the winner, have waiting for several matches later and looking the result for both team who will losses many points.

We should not think that the Bundesliga is not competitive compared to other leagues just because Bayern Munich has continuously won Bayern Munich in the last 11 seasons, but the competition in the Bundesliga is quite fierce and also the strength of the Bundesliga teams is strong enough so this can be proven when the teams from the Bundesliga playing on the European stage.

I do know what you meant but to be honest, how can you call winning bundesliga 11 times in a row was not a domination in the bundesliga? we do know that so well if bayern has always become the winner and the competition has always been dominated by bayern since even a decade agao.
We are looking for a competitive league. It will make the situation far better than before. I do like that the current competition in the bundesliga caused by it was showing more improvements. Im also feeling so happy to see that leverkusen took the first place.
This is also signalling that if there was a true competitor for bayern munich. The came of pochettino has been also changing everything in the league.

However, this season it must be admitted that the competition for the Bundesliga title is quite fierce compared to last season and in my personal opinion, Bayern Munich's percentage of being able to defend the title is smaller than last season.

True and this is what we are looking for. A competitive competition that involved by so many clubs. It was not a competition who has been dominated by a club for a long time.
Im feeling so happy to see leverkusen has made some good progress. It was also making the situation far better than before. I hope that dortmund can go up and compete with other clubs in the bundesliga soon.

It will make the competition better.
