Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Hanadawa]

I understand that there are still a lot of matches left in the Bundesliga this season. But I think it is better for Bayern Munich to actually put all the concentration into the Champions League competition. Because I don't think there is any way Leverkusen is going to perform so badly that they will actually be able to make up come back and win the Bundesliga title. If they concentrate on the Champions League competition, at least they will be able to probably win the Champions League. Well at least there will have a chance. But I don't think they even have that chance in the bundesliga right now. And I do not believe in any curse but the Harry Kane one looks to be real

I don't believe in myths and curses, but it seems Harry Kane has a problem with the league cup . Tottenham once had a great squad and had the potential to win the English league but they failed several times. What I remember most is when they surprisingly lost to Leicester City which later became a fairy tale in the history of world football. In the Bundesliga Munich is a great team and in fact they have dominated the Bundesliga for a long time. But unexpectedly they failed to win the Bundesliga this season. If Kane plays for PSG next season, will PSG lose their championship title next season?

But I don't think they even have that chance in the bundesliga right now. And I do not believe in any curse but the Harry Kane one looks to be real

Bayern Munich hasn't had such a bad Bundesliga season in years. Considering the point difference between them and Leverkusen, they have no chance of winning the Bundesliga championship. They may even fall to third place. Their only focus should be the important matches they will play in the UCL. If they are going to win the cup, they will somehow win in the UCL. To achieve this, football players must make an extra effort and bring the best of their talents to the field. They should be at their best against Arsenal.

[kro55]

Bayern Munich have already pushed their focus to the Champions League and they’ll be having a very big match with Arsenal. Playing with Arsenal, a team that looks very much less competitive to Bayern Munich, they need to be at their best and not relent while playing with them. For every team that have made it this far in the competition should let one know that, they’re not just a common team but a top team with a lot of potential to deliver at anytime. Bayern Munich has a more realistic opportunity than Arsenal but as football has it, we can’t just conclude that any team can win just yet until the matches are played.

Bayern Munich board are eager to know the affairs of the team because the Bavarians are no longer consistent in performance and when it comes to top rivals in Bundesliga, they easily lose points and it all originates from the moments when they sacked Julian Nagelsmann for no good reasons and settled for Thomas Tuchel, how's that going for them? The Bayern Munich I know will not give up on their Bundesliga birthright and focuses on other titles, instead they will fight with everything within their strength to bounce back to their glorious ways.

Bayern Munich's situation will be very shaky now. The team has failed to perform consistently well and Munich has lost dominance in the Bundesliga this season. There is no doubt that Munich's squad is very strong. Harry Kane has been in good form and has been scoring consistently, yet we see no improvement in Munich's overall performance.

After the 2-0 defeat against Dortmund I would say Tuchel is going to lose his job very quickly. Bayern Munich management will sack Thomas Tuchel despite being eliminated from the Champions League. If Bayern Munich perform like this, they have a big chance of losing against Arsenal.

[Silence Scream]

Although Bayern Munich failed to win the Bundesliga trophy this season but yes, it does not mean Bayern Munich became indifferent or pessimistic in the Bundesliga. Because of course, as a team that has dominated for many years in the Bundesliga, then of course there is still prestige for Bayern Munich and thus then Bayern Munich will make effort to finish in second place. It doesn't matter that Bayern Munich lost very embarrassingly at home because Bayern Munich lost against Dortmund and even Bayern Munich couldn't score a goal. But after all, the most important thing is that Bayern Munich can maintain its position in second place and in this way, at least Bayern Munich is not considered completely bad even though it failed to win the Bundesliga trophy this season because it was still able to finish in second place.

I think Bayern Munich doesn't really care about that, because right now they have to focus on the UCL match because there it is still possible for them to win the title, that's much better than having to prioritize prestige which is very unimportant.
Bayern Munich have given up on chasing Leverkusen at the top of the standings so they don't have any motivation to finish this season just to finish best so they can get a ticket to the UCL and that is very possible for them to get.
Apart from the defeat against Dortmund last weekend, Bayern Munich's quality is slightly better than other Bundesliga teams so it won't be difficult for them to maintain their current position.

Actually, Bayern Munich got not bad scores this year, but Bayer Leverkusen was really great this year. No one would have guessed that Alonso would manage such a good team in his first experience. This year has been a nightmare for Bayern Munich. Moreover, the one who was most upset about this situation was Harry Kane, who came to Bayern Munich for the championship. We can say that it is clear that he will not be able to win the championship with Bayern Munich, at least for the Bundesliga. The only goal now is to win the Champions League.

[Luzin]

Well at least there will have a chance. But I don't think they even have that chance in the bundesliga right now. And I do not believe in any curse but the Harry Kane one looks to be real

I think it's a good curse because Harry Kane is the Bundesliga's top scorer at the moment. At the moment only Tuchel cannot maximize the potential of the existing players. So Kane came in superbly, he has become Munich's attacking solution. But indeed I don't fully blame only the coach, there is a factor in the strength of other teams that are developing better and that happened to Leverkusen.
 
List of Bundesliga Top 5 Scorers
1. Harry Kane 31 goals
2. Serhou Gurassy 21 goals

And Xabi Alonso's decision to stay at Leverkusen next season makes it very likely that the Bundesliga will be even fiercer next season.
Xabi will definitely build a Leverkusen team to be able to defend the title and on the other hand Bayer Munich will definitely make up for their mistake this season of not being able to defend the title to create a much stronger team thus allowing for much fiercer competition next season between these two teams.

Xabi Alonso's decision to stay at Leverkusen will make the Bundesliga even more interesting to watch next season. Xabi will try to strengthen his team and they already have good chemistry and a winning mentality. I'm sure Xabi will use the same squad as this season and will improvise some of their game tactics.

Munich will take revenge for their failure to win the title this season. I don't think they expected Leverkusen to be an unexpected variable and stop their dominance in the Bundesliga. They will certainly be better prepared next season and this will make the Bundesliga truly competitive.

If they ended up spending 100+ million euro just to get Kane after a season they "almost" lost, think about what they will do after they actually lose it. I am guessing that Bayern with their deep pockets could just turn this ship around completely and get rid of any of the old players that is not providing like they used to, such as kimmich and sane, those players may leave and someone better could take their spot.

This is why I believe that we are going to end up with something more and something bigger in the end. I get that things are not looking like they are doing all that crazy, but we should probably see Bayern getting the title back again next season. Xabi didn't make a mistake though, if they finish second, close to Bayern, that would still be fine.

Xabi's current decision is an answer to all the drama that is possible because from the beginning the news about Xabi was really like a big saga because it involved several big clubs in it so when the decision was made when Xabi decided to stay at Leverkusen next season even though I felt quite a risky decision actually because after all, doing something like this could have consequences because surely next season might not be the same as this.
Seeing from the current situation, Bayern will definitely move quickly to make changes so that the squad can dominate again for next season and this could be a tough challenge for Xabi especially with their squad that could be shaky, I think it could have an impact on his career but when the decision has been made then indeed at this time Xabi only has to do the same intuition according to the decision he currently holds because it must be accounted for and Xabi must have considered that this is the best decision for him.

Bayern Munich is not successful in the league. They fell behind Bayer Leverkusen. They no longer have a chance to catch them. The only target for Bayern Munich was the Champions League. Now Thomas Tuchel can focus on winning the Champions League. Maybe Bayern Munich can win this cup again, with a little luck. Of course, for this to happen, it must first surpass Arsenal. Thomas Tuchel had the opportunity to get to know Arsenal closely while he was at Chelsea. He knows their style of play. I'm sure he will make any plan to surpass them.

I still don't believe in that curse because if we look at Bayern Munich's condition, it's actually not much different from last season, they almost failed to become Bundesliga champions, it's just that their competitors this time are much better than last season, and I see it more that no improvements have been made by Tuchel in this team so that they will slowly fail to defend their title this season.

Concentrating on the Champions League might be the best choice because this is their only chance to reduce the fans' disappointment. If they succeed in overcoming Arsenal, their test will still be difficult in the semifinals, but if they make it to the final, their chances will be greater if we see that their opponent's potential is not as tough as their opponents in the quarterfinals and semifinals.

Xabi Alonso's decision to stay at Leverkusen will make the Bundesliga even more interesting to watch next season. Xabi will try to strengthen his team and they already have good chemistry and a winning mentality. I'm sure Xabi will use the same squad as this season and will improvise some of their game tactics.

If Xabi improves Leverkusen squad and Bayern Munich hires a top coach, Bundesliga will be more interesting. But if Bayern Munich fails to hire a top coach, I doubt Bayern Munich will have the ability to compete with Leverkusen for the title next season. It will be nice if Xabi Alonso signs some top players to improve Leverkusen, he will prepare his team to compete in UCL, too. Anyway, I no doubt with Xabi's tactics, he is already proven it very well.

Munich will take revenge for their failure to win the title this season. I don't think they expected Leverkusen to be an unexpected variable and stop their dominance in the Bundesliga. They will certainly be better prepared next season and this will make the Bundesliga truly competitive.

Bayern Munich must try to take revenge. But if there is no change in the tactics and players' mentality, I am rather doubtful Bayern Munich will succeed to take revenge. Bayer Leverkusen is no longer an average team, they are a strong team. We can see it very clear that Leverkusen never gets a single lose until now. How Bayern Munich takes revenge with a such prefect team like this? Moreover, the current condition of Bayern Munich looks very unconvincingly. I also heard that some key players of Bayern Munich may be leaving for the next season. This is not good issue for Bayern Munich.

[Velvet78]

I don't think there will be any revenge motive for Bayern Munich. They have already been dominating the Bundesliga for so many years and finishing only one season like this wouldn't be enough to break their general domination. But one thing is certain that this might really be the start of something different on one hand.

Juventus domination in the Serie A comes to my mind. After their title streak was broken we started to see quite many different champions. It is more difficult to see that many different champions in the Bundesliga though but at least Leverkusen could continue to be a title contender as long as they have Xabi Alonso. 

[len01]

Well at least there will have a chance. But I don't think they even have that chance in the bundesliga right now. And I do not believe in any curse but the Harry Kane one looks to be real

I think it's a good curse because Harry Kane is the Bundesliga's top scorer at the moment. At the moment only Tuchel cannot maximize the potential of the existing players. So Kane came in superbly, he has become Munich's attacking solution. But indeed I don't fully blame only the coach, there is a factor in the strength of other teams that are developing better and that happened to Leverkusen.

Kane curse has been discussed since he first joined Bayern Munich and some people keep saying that Kane might become a top scorer but the curse will come when the team has difficulty winning the title.
I may sometimes believe in this curse but it would be better to see the results of the UCL competition later, whether Bayern Munich will also fail in the UCL and if they succeed in getting the title in this prestigious competition, it is likely that the curse is not real, but this is Tuchel strategy to prioritize the UCL compared to the Bundesliga.
and for bad performance like this there is no need to blame any party because a situation like this could happen to any big team when it experiences a decline in performance.

but if we say who is at fault, actually sometimes the coach is the one who is blamed because the coach is responsible for the future of the team he manages and the decline in Bayern Munich performance occurred during Tuchel coaching period.
so I understand when some people say this is Tuchel fault but sometimes they don't see from the other side that sometimes there are other factors that influence the team to lose consistency, such as some players who don't like the coach.

It is more difficult to see that many different champions in the Bundesliga though but at least Leverkusen could continue to be a title contender as long as they have Xabi Alonso.  

The motive for revenge may not exist, but certainly Bayern Munich has great motivation to restore their dominance in the Bundesliga next season, at the moment Bayern Munich's main goal is to find the right coach in order to restore their lost glory this season, I think as a team that continues to dominate the league of course it is a Disgraceful for Munich if they lose the championship trophy in the league for more than two seasons,  And certainly for this season to be the first season of their failure in the league, so next season will certainly make Bayern Munich motivated to rise.

The competition in the Bundesliga this season has made Bayern Munich helpless because of the rise of Leverkusen, so it makes us all hope a lot for Leverkusen to repeat their glory next season, but honestly it seems that it will be very difficult, because after all with the money power possessed by Bayern Munich at this time, of course they will try to make major improvements to the squad,  In addition, we also cannot guarantee if Leverkusen's players will stay next season, because for now many big European club clubs are starting to target Leverkusen's core players for them to recruit, with the possibility of losing some of their important players next season, of course, making Leverkusen will no longer be balanced at this season.

You can be sure that after this season from Bayern Munich there will be some things changing and that they are not happy how this season went.
Bayern Munich always want to win and to be the best in the league , so yeah changes are coming for the next season.
Even they have dominated the league so long it hurts them really if they dont do it 1 season.

We will definitely see how it finally goes, I'm sure that Bayern Munich would be having the chance to upgrade the squad immediately the season comes to an end.
They haven't been a stable side since the time if Nagelsmann man. I won't blame it too much on him because immediately Robert Lewandoski left for Barcelona, they Bayern Munich failed to replace him with the right name and it affected them a big deal. I'm not sure if Bayern Leverkusen would be doing a back to back Bundesliga League Competition win though, that would be sure difficult to achieve.

Exactly! I love this example. Shows how football from another league relates to another. It was almost the same for Leicester City Premier League Competition win and Girona, but Girona screwed things up.
And it's same with Arsenal and Napoli. It seems like Arsenal have learnt them lessons from last season.

It is more difficult to see that many different champions in the Bundesliga though but at least Leverkusen could continue to be a title contender as long as they have Xabi Alonso. 

It is now necessary to award the trophy to Leverkusen because no team will be able to challenge them again. Bayern Munich was the team we initially thought could challenge Leverkusen, but we later realised that they didn't have enough power to finish the season. Nevertheless, after giving it some more thought, I decided that it was time for another team to win the Bundesliga since Bayern Munich had won it four times in a row. In fact, I'm even relieved that Leverkusen won because it will motivate Bayern Munich to move on and get ready for the following season.

The fact that Leverkusen will play in the Champions League the following season is the most exciting part. It will be interesting to see what Leverkusen can accomplish and whether Xabi Alonso can make the league as tough as he does the Bundesliga. Regardless, Alonso has already set a record in both the Bundesliga and football history, but I believe he will leave Leverkusen after the upcoming season.

[rahmad2nd]

Xabi's current decision is an answer to all the drama that is possible because from the beginning the news about Xabi was really like a big saga because it involved several big clubs in it so when the decision was made when Xabi decided to stay at Leverkusen next season even though I felt quite a risky decision actually because after all, doing something like this could have consequences because surely next season might not be the same as this.
Seeing from the current situation, Bayern will definitely move quickly to make changes so that the squad can dominate again for next season and this could be a tough challenge for Xabi especially with their squad that could be shaky, I think it could have an impact on his career but when the decision has been made then indeed at this time Xabi only has to do the same intuition according to the decision he currently holds because it must be accounted for and Xabi must have considered that this is the best decision for him. 

Xabi Alonso has chosen his choice to stay with Leverkusen, this decision he has considered before and I am very confident about it. Previously, when Alonso was linked with Real Madrid, if I'm not mistaken he once stated that he still needed more experience to establish himself as an established coach with experience. plus, become a quality trainer. Maybe that's also why Alonso chose to stay with Leverkusen, as a consequence he is well aware that Bayern Munich will further improve the quality of his team and also bring in an experienced coach. However, Alonso still chose to stay with Leverkusen, even though it is likely that next season will be an increasingly difficult challenge for him to compete with the German League giants.

Not only that, maybe several other elite Bundesliga teams will also improve their squads to make them more competitive. such as RB Leipizig, Dortmund, Frankfurt and maybe even Stuttgart will also deepen so that their teams are more competitive in the coming season. Speaking of Xabi Alonso, he and Leverkusen's sporting director and staff will definitely strengthen their team to continue competing next season. However, it does not rule out the possibility that some of its top players will leave and play for other leagues. I am very sure, Xabi has been wary of such things. Maybe, they also have a target on the list of players who will be brought to BayArena. Well, since this competition isn't over yet, especially the competition in 3rd and 4th place is still quite exciting. Let's just enjoy the remaining matches presented by the Bundesliga.

[bct_ail]

Interesting games this weekend for the teams at the bottom of the table.

Köln are at place 17 in the table and will play against Bochum (place 15). Bochum has a gap of 6 points to place 16.

Mainz and Darmstadt will also play against each other. Darmstadt is at last place and Mainz is at palce 16 with 20 points. A win is important for all teams.

And then the teams at place 14 and 15 will also play against each other. Mönchengladbach against Wolfsburg. Wolfsbrug is the only team of these 6 how won the last game with their new coach and has the best momentum. Mainz however, managed a draw against Leipzig in their last game and thus gained an important point.

They have already been dominating the Bundesliga for so many years and finishing only one season like this wouldn't be enough to break their general domination. But one thing is certain that this might really be the start of something different on one hand.

If you view Bayern Munich performance in this season you will know that they will not be able to win this season trophy because some of the team they used to beat to achieved points from them, they are the teams challenging Bayern Munich in this season and, Bayer Leverkusen are dominating to break record to lift the Bundesliga trophy.

Juventus domination in the Serie A comes to my mind. After their title streak was broken we started to see quite many different champions. It is more difficult to see that many different champions in the Bundesliga though but at least Leverkusen could continue to be a title contender as long as they have Xabi Alonso.  

Juventus will not smell 3rd position in serie A trophy because they have started dropping their points to fall in 4th position and, it will be hard for them to drag second position before the end of the tournament and, we know that Inter Milan are in a good position to lift the trophy this season.

[rendravolt]

If Xabi improves Leverkusen squad and Bayern Munich hires a top coach, Bundesliga will be more interesting. But if Bayern Munich fails to hire a top coach, I doubt Bayern Munich will have the ability to compete with Leverkusen for the title next season. It will be nice if Xabi Alonso signs some top players to improve Leverkusen, he will prepare his team to compete in UCL, too. Anyway, I no doubt with Xabi's tactics, he is already proven it very well.

If you look at the depth of their current squad, Leverkusen actually has no problem with that and I'm sure Xabi Alonso is still very comfortable with his current players. Maybe every change should be made every season considering that its competitors will also make Leverkusen their destination. Becoming Bundesliga champions this season will mean Leverkusen get lots of bonuses and those funds will definitely be spent on new players in the summer.

On the other hand, I agree with you that Bayern Munich must be able to recruit top coaches and rebuild the chemistry between their players which was chaotic during the Thomas Tuchel era. Even though the situation has not yet subsided and considering that Thomas Tuchel will leave at the end of the season, I think the players must be able to survive and continue to adhere to the strategy that Thomas Tuchel has given. The rest they have to start again next season and hope to dominate the Bundesliga again.
