Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[bering]

Mainz and Union Berlin face each other in the Bundesliga, two teams that have fallen on hard times. Mainz, winless in their last nine games and with only five points at home, now fear the worst after years in middle rows. As bad results keep coming, more and more of them are being added. Union Berlin, on the other hand, have managed to push themselves up the table a bit recently. With both teams averaging less than a goal per game this season, there is no logical reason to expect three goals in this match. That's why I think this match will end in two goals or less.

This is postponed match for both teams and Mainz and Union Berlin are not in the good shape especially Mainz because since November last year Mainz was never gets the winning results again in Bundesliga and 11 points from 19 matches makes Mainz only occupy 15th place so they are in the difficult situations and probably Mainz will be relegated to Bundesliga 2 next season and for Union Berlin although last week they have to lost from Leipzig but i think they performance much better compared Mainz although Union Berlin position still not fully safe but i am confident they can avoiding relegation zone this season

About this match Union Berlin has good records from Mainz because they can able to gets 4 wins from 5 latest matches against Mainz and today Union Berlin will lost Christopher Trimmel because suspension after he was received a red card when Union Berlin lost from Leipzig last week and Union Berlin have no sharp striker because their top scorer in Bundesliga is Robin Gosens which is this player has scores 4 goals and his position is a midfielder but for forward position Union Berlin still rely on Benedict Hollerbach and their new player which transfered from PSV Yorbe Vertessen probably will be played again today and about the outcomes of this match because from meeting statistics and recent performance Union Berlin is more better than Mainz i think Union Berlin will being an the winner of this match but Union Berlin has high odds @4.00

I think it's very hard to predict who can win in this game... Mainz and Union are currently playing equally badly and are at the bottom of the standings... Mainz are in the relegation zone, Union are not far away... The home field really does not help the hosts much, that's why bookmakers consider them favourites, but estimate the odds of winning above 2.0... I don't rule out a draw here...

It's not easy to predict a match like this where both teams are in a bad situation. Statistically, Union Berlin are better, but Mainz will be the home side which is a distinct advantage for them.
In the last 5 matches, Mainz without winning a single match, while Union Berlin can win a total of 2 matches. I will probably be more in favor of Union Berlin, even though the odds may not be great. Mainz also has a good chance to win, but it is also possible that this match will end without a winner. Let's see what the game will be like.

I would not underestimate Mainz. Okay, they have not won for a long time. But in their last game against Werder Bremen they were more unlucky to lose. They were clearly the better team and that was shown by the signing of Nadiem Amiri.
A win is definitely very important for both teams. Union can increase the gap to place 16 to 5 points and Mainz would be back in touch with place 16.

[hahay]

Bayern Munich if you monitor them closely have been a good side but no at the standards we saw them few seasons ago, I'd say a season or two backwards.

determination this weekend. when Bayern Munich must travel to the current leaders Bayern Leverkusen. if Bayern Munich loses, it is possible that the title at the end of the season will be won by Leverkusen.
If the match ends in a draw the title race is still exciting. but if Bayern Munich wins it will be the strongest candidate for the German league champions again this season.

I personally seem to be quite sure, it looks like Bayern Munich is still able to beat Bayer Leverkusen . Because ya, at least Bayer Leverkusen also sometimes only get draw result when playing against teams that can play well and strong . Therefore, if Bayern Munich can improve the quality of their performance to be better than the first half of the season then ya, at least Bayern Munich has a good chance to be able to beat Bayer Leverkusen. But yes, if Bayern Munich does not manage to improve the quality of their performance then at least that factor will make Bayern Munich again fail to beat Bayer Leverksuen. But yes, let's just look forward to it because of course Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich will play the best way they have in they match later.

Mainz05 and Union Berlin are both teams that have experienced a continuous decline this season, Mainz05 who last year could be in 9th place in the standings and are currently in the relegation zone is certainly a big disappointment because I expect them to drop further until week 20, as well as Union berlin who in the last season they had 4th place in the standings and today in the indecisive zone of 15th place in the bundesliga standings, which both have a significant decline despite giving a sense of awakening in the last few matches, because previously also Union Berlin was in the league relegation zone.

The resilience of Union Berlin is in my opinion comparable to Mainz, they are on a losing streak and seem to be losing motivation, I think this match is two goals or has a draw for the result.

[Willy99]

Mainz played really good in last game. They signed Amiri from Leverkusen and it was a good push for the team. But it´s hard to find value in bets.
Under is best Option, imo. But odds are very low...

[Docnaster]

Bayern Munich if you monitor them closely have been a good side but no at the standards we saw them few seasons ago, I'd say a season or two backwards.

I agree about the look of Bayern Munich this season. They had much more convincing seasons than this in the past. They have some inconsistencies this season not only in the Bundesliga but also the Champions League. I know how many points they collected in the Champions League group stage but I meant their performance quality in general. 

This look of them is really helping Leverkusen on one hand for now. In only three days there is a big game between these two teams you know. I hope Leverkusen can manage to win to have a nice gap with their opponent in the standings. 

Undoubtedly, we've seen a better Bayern Munich performance years ago than the current one in the club at the moment but that doesn't mean that the present Bayern Munich team that's managed by Thomas Tuchel can not go on to win many titles that'll put them in the same level with the other Bayern Munich teams of the past years.
They've not been totally consistent this season with their performances but in most cases, they've been convincing enough with their performances that we can say that they really stand a good chance to win a treble this season and go down as one of the best Bayern Munich teams in the club's history. They're just two points behind first placed Bayer Leverkusen but still have the needed quality players to finish the season as German champions

I think between Mainz and Union Berlin, Union Berlin is the team that is better. They're at least have got five wins so far in this season. Mainz have only got one and they do not have a single win in the last five matches. Meanwhile, Union Berlin does have two wins in the last five matches. In the last five matches at the same time, Mainz has been able to get a lot of points with draws. So it might be possible that they will get one point from this match because we also know that Union Berlin is not playing very well. Some points might be shared.

I don't know what problems Mainz is having. But I see that this is Union Berlin's worst season since they were called a dark horse with increasing achievements in every season. Many say this is because they recruited Bonucci who was considered old even though he had a lot of top level experience. If you look at Union data, Berlin does have problems in their defense this season, but that is not entirely the fault of one player. Currently, Union Berlin as a whole must improve their defense because several times I saw them concede after taking the lead first.

It is impressive stats from Leverkusen but they don't actually need that stats. What they need is title because impressive stats mean nothing if at the season ending, Leverkusen end it with no title. Their unbeaten record even 30 or 33 or 40 games, will become non sense if they end as runner-up.

In the past, Leverkusen had one impressive season with Michael Ballack is their biggest star player and in that season, they ended all as runner-up in Bundesliga, Germany Cup and Champions League. Leverkusen will not want to finish this season similarly and I believe that they will not aim at making records. Titles are what they want most and fight for, not record.

It's very correct and true that record isn't much important just like in a match the team that performs best doesn't really matter but the team that won so it's very much more important to win than putting out an excellent performance without a good result to show for it as the results is what brings home the trophy and not the records.

Leverkusen still have one of their key player injured, although I know too well that Leverkusen has got a system that isn't dependent or reliant on any player but the the presence of certain players can't be overly emphasized or over looked because there are some brilliance that comes with the presence of certain players and that isn't in doubts as can be seen when victor Boniface is present and playing with them, but then even after AFCON we aren't certain about when he will be back in the team but then when he eventually does it will be a plus to the team.

Mainz have only got one and they do not have a single win in the last five matches. Meanwhile, Union Berlin does have two wins in the last five matches.

Yes overall looking at what they have achieved this season, Union Berlin are still better than Mainz. But that is not enough to make them able to win in this match, the article Mainz will play as the host too, it is an advantage for them.
I won't be surprised by any result, whether Mainz can win, Union Berlin go home with 3 points or a draw will be the final result. Because in this meeting both clubs are at an alarming level.
Motivation will definitely be owned by both clubs, because they will also definitely see the opportunities of the opponents they will face who are not in good condition either. So they can take advantage of it to be able to beat each other and take advantage of the situation they are facing.

The confrontation between teams near the relegation zone has always been difficult, and although both teams in the last games tried to adequately confront the teams at the top of the standings, I like Union Berlin more. It will be more difficult for them to play away, but I think that they will not lose today.
There are a few days left for Bayern's match with Bayer, Bayern is resting and preparing for this match, and Bayer yesterday had a very difficult game with Stuttgart in the German Cup, they won, but they had to win back twice, and now they have to recover for the match with Bayern.

~snip~

Indeed, the essence of all good statistics is being able to win the title and that is what we are looking forward to at the end of the season. Leverkusen are still unbeaten in all competitions so far and they have created a statistic that is very difficult for any club to beat this season. The players have mental steel and will not give up even if they experience difficulties and what they have built during this season will be in vain if they finish runners up.

What is clear is that whatever the statistics, Leverkusen must be able to win a title this season, at least one or two titles and we think they must also be an example of a team that can stop Bayern Munich's dominance so far. We know it's not easy, but with Xabi Alonso who is a phenomenal figure at Leverkusen, everything can still be handled well and the most important thing is that the players must be properly looked after to avoid injury because this is the initial capital so that Xabi Alonso's strategy can continue well.

I do agree that Leverkusen "looks" good, but Bayern is not far away, that is the thing about their troubles. If Leverkusen did well and Bayern did not, then it would make sense and we would say that Leverkusen could win the title, but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with something that would benefit everyone. So all in all, I am sensing that it is going to be a bit of a tough situation to handle, and could result with some troubles.

I believe that the best thing to do right now, at this moment, would be just making sure that we end up with something that could profit us the most. I understand that it is going to be a great deal, so we should consider this as a way to make money from both teams wins.

In seeing a team that most disagree if it is associated with just one player because on the field we see 11 players who appear to work together, yes despite the shortcomings I think Bonucci is a pretty good player and has experience, but is currently no longer in Union Berlin if I'm not mistaken.

Yes we can see in their defense and midfield players are not so solid this season which makes them always careless and my analysis is that players often rely on other players for certain tasks and often miss communication, I am a little suspicious that maybe some players have problems with other players because the decline in performance experienced by Union Berlin is very drastic this season, what can trigger this is a misunderstanding that can destroy the chemistry in the match.

But at least, Union Berlin has good results in head to head records and therefore, although Mainz and Union Berlin have both experienced a decline in performance this season but yes, at least Union Berlin is still a difficult opponent for Mainz. With these factors then yes, I personally still believe that Union Berlin still has a good chance in this match even though indeed, Union Berlin is playing away. But yes, it looks like Union Berlin will still be able to play well at least not lose and therefore, maybe a draw can happen but one thing that I sure is that Union Berlin will not lose this match.

Mainz was only able to get 1 win while Union Berlin was still able to get 5 wins since the start of the season even though 5 wins is a bad result, but if you compare it with Mainz, Union Berlin will still be superior.
From past statistical results, Union Berlin has always found it easy to beat Mainz, meaning Berlin knows how to beat Mainz and this is an opportunity for Union Berlin to get 3 points and immediately save its position.
At the time of writing this match in the first half neither club had scored yet but looking at the match I am still confident that Union Berlin will win and score more in the second half.
Union Berlin applied pressure several times, although they rarely applied pressure, the ball always entered the Mainz area and if they were careless, Union Berlin would easily score.

Kevin Volland tried several attacks but failed but I think he was trying to continue to press the Mainz defense and I would guess the score 2-0 for Union Berlin to win.

Well whenever it comes to matches like this, we have to keep in mind that both of them are at the bottom of the table and these types of matches can be very unpredictable. Almost any outcome is possible from these matches.

Right now Union Berlin versus Mainz is going on and 45 minutes have already been played. Neither team has been able to break the deadlock. So far it is looking very balanced. Neither team has actually done something incredible. I hope we will see some goals in this match. I hope one team actually wins.

Bayern Munich had much experienced for winning on the crucial match or crucial moment, last season the Bundesliga trophy almost gone after Dortmund lead the top standings behind one domestic league match.
Had crucial result Bayern won the last match and Dortmund had losses their crucial points for giving opportunity Bayern Munich become the winner. Not easy for stopping the thirteen record for Bayern Munich become the Bundesliga tittles, but become interested if any team can stop the domestic league dominance by Bayern Munich.
I think the same way in this season behind Bayern Munich still on 2nd standings position but they have experienced how to return top standings position and make Bayern Leverkusen have forget become the winner of Bundesliga this season.

[Oluwa-btc]

Bayern Munich if you monitor them closely have been a good side but no at the standards we saw them few seasons ago, I'd say a season or two backwards.

determination this weekend. when Bayern Munich must travel to the current leaders Bayern Leverkusen. if Bayern Munich loses, it is possible that the title at the end of the season will be won by Leverkusen.
If the match ends in a draw the title race is still exciting. but if Bayern Munich wins it will be the strongest candidate for the German league champions again this season.

The best attacking side and the defending side on Saturday will definitely take three points home. For Bayern Leverkusen, they're looking poor at defending at most form thrngame I saw them play yesterday, glad they could win the game though during the last minutes of the goddamn game.

Whoever win won't determine the winners of the league competitions already.
I cannot determine who ends up as winners, in short I never thought they'd be facing themselves so early this month. Bayern Leverkusen shouldn't disappoint us lol. I hope they grab the three points come Saturday.

[tyz]

Well, the tip has aged quickly Leverkusen equalized shortly after the break, but allowed Stuttgart to take the lead again shortly afterwards. After 60 minutes, Stuttgart is the more dynamic and better team and rightly took the lead. Both teams play very offensively, so more goals are to be expected.

I was just making an observation and stating how things stood at that point in time. Being a Cup game, it does get a bit unpredictable and that's how this one went as well. Stuttgart did lead the game twice but couldn't hold on to it and lost by conceding 3 goals in the 2nd half. The game ended Leverkusen 3-2 Stuttgart.

No offense intended! I just wanted to say that the tip was history already. I was also secretly hoping for a draw, as the game was very entertaining and as a neutral spectator I would have liked to see extra time or a penalty shoot out. In the end, the luckier team won, not the better one imho.

[len01]

Even being on top of the league, Bayern Leverkusen will be feeling all the pressure because it's better to chase someone at the top of the table than being chase because only the pressure and demand to be consistent can make you flop so I think Bayern Leverkusen will have to be at their very best if they do want to actually salvage this season bundesLiga title and believe me it would be nice to see Another team win this other than the normal winners of the league and I just hope Leverkusen doesn't fall to the pressure like the Dortmund did at the last minute of the season last year.

The match between these two teams is like they are just playing for the team to be in the first position. The point gap between them is very close that the result of this match won’t make much difference or ascertain the team that will win the league title. Each of them needs to play to their best after their head-to-head matches until the end of the season, only then we can tell the team that is ready to win this league title. This match will only test their strength against each other but it won’t make it be the decider on who will win the league title. Both teams are great and the result of this match cannot be easily decided.

maybe this is the reason why Bayern Munich doesn't want to be too ambitious in chasing the top of the standings but prefers to always be close to the points that Leverkusen has because if they are at the top of the standings they get pressure from the teams below them with very close point difference, they will definitely get pressure and certainly trying to work hard to stay at the top of standings without realizing that hard work will ultimately make the players physically tired and towards the end of season the players become unfocused and run out of energy to maintain their position and perhaps this has become part of Bayern Munich strategy to Leverkusen is approaching points but will not shift them because Tuchel knows that he at the top of the standings but if that is not safe, it would be better to shift the top of the standings towards the end of the season so that opponents who are below him are unable to catch up.

Tuchel has been helping Munich win the title in the bundesliga for a long time so he knows what strategy to use to get the title at the end of the season and on the one hand, no matter how strong a team is, it will definitely lose several times, but it's just that Leverkusen doesn't have time to lose and usually they will only be defeated bottom teams.
