Augsburg vs M'gladbach

Augsburg (confirmed lineup): Nediljko Labrovic, Maximilian Bauer, Jeffrey Gouweleeuw, Keven Schlotterbeck, Marius Wolf, Dimitrios Giannoulis, Frank Onyeka, Kristijan Jakic, Elvis Rexhbecaj, Steve Mounie, Phillip Tietz.

Borussia Monchengladbach (confirmed lineup): Moritz Nicolas, Joseph Scally, Ko Itakura, Nico Elvedi, Luca Netz, Philipp Sander, Julian Weigl, Tomas Cvancara, Kevin Stoeger, Alassane Plea, Tim Kleindienst.

 M'gladbach are two points away from Augsburg and they are about to begin the 6th game of the season, Augsburg really need to work on their performance to distance themselves from relegation zone which they only have a point gap away from relegation, Augsburg are the host which I will expect good performances from them but I realise the the both teams are not currently doing well.

Monchengladbach is not longer the same as they were before since last season. They are yet to put things in the right order and today's result is another prove that their performance is declining. Monchengladbach lost to Augsburg with a scoreline of 2-1.

 Augsburg once again show us that they are strong in their home with this victory. Borussia gameplan this season is a complete disaster and they can not go far unless they change the game pattern because everything seems to be going backwards now. In fact, it's getting worse after the second game of the season. I don't like putting blame on couch but achieving nothing after two seasons is enough that he's nothing to offer monchengladbach.

Not a few Dortmund players are labeled with expensive prices because we can take the examples of Lewa, Dembele, Jude, Haaland and many other players come from the foresight of scouts who see the progress of these players to be used as a business by Dortmund to benefit financially.

A few years ago, this was seen a lot in Dortmund, in fact we all speculated that the best thing about Dortmund was the preparation of the best players for the big signings and it was a fact that the club benefited from the sale of those players because their prices were very high, now that has changed a bit, I no longer see Dortmund that way, I see them differently now, I see them as one of the teams that are very good and that can be candidates to win any competition, from a Bundesliga to a UCL with the quality they have shown.

There is a saying that goes “ a leopard never changes it’s spots.” It is only a matter of time before Dortmund start selling out their key players again. You may think that they have changed and are focused now on grooming players for the club not for business. Now they have Adeyemi who is in hot form for Dortmund, I learnt he scored a hatrick in their last champions league game. We shall see in the next summer window if they will be able to resist good offers when they start coming.

If they are for the business, then why not still sell him out to make them a good sum of money. They’ve been doing this for a very long time now and if the team hasn’t been sold to another person to handle the affairs of the team. I feel this is what we will continue to see till the end of time from now. Dortmund are for business and they’ve made it clear for all, unless they change their stance and not sell their good players in the next transfer window, I won’t believe that they won’t be selling their best players in the next transfer window when the good offer comes for it.

It is sacrosanct that Brussia Dortmund won't stop selling out their best players because that's one ways how they mainly raise money for the club, and Adeyemi isn't as sophisticated as either Lewandoski or Haaland and a host of other quality players they didn't hesitate to sell when those offers were made. How they manage to continually stay in the top four of the Bundesliga table each season and not playing so badly even in the champions league competition despite this trade about them is what I applaud them for.

Wining trophies are also part of the business so not selling a player because they feel its going to affect their chances of wining a trophy this season if that to them is a priority this season then it is very okay not to want to sell of the player at the time till the season is over till they get that which they aim to achieve this season and if not they are going to let go of the the player by selling him off to still make that money they would have made having him around so which ever way they are still in business regardless, it doesnt necessarily have to be only when they sell players off to another team before we assume Dortmund is in business just that their case has got a policy that allows them to implement that almost always.

In terms of winning trophies, it is no wonder that this step always makes Dortmund lose. Of course, in terms of finance, they can get big profits from the sale of talented young players. I also assume that this tradition continues until now, and it is indeed quite difficult to change it, unless Dortmund changes ownership. Maybe Dortmund could have won various trophies in the last decade if they had kept their star players, so that fans would not feel disappointed every season. Dortmund manager, whoever it is, must work extra hard every season to stabilize the squad, and find ways to speed up adaptation within the team.

From this background, we can underline that Dormund always has difficulty becoming a trophy challenger, and indirectly makes it easier for Bayern Munchen to continue to dominate the Bundesliga. Last season the story was a little different with Leverkusen appearing stunning and undefeated. Leverkusen managed to do a job that Dortmund was unable to do for more than a decade, namely taking the trophy from Bayern Munchen. Dortmund fate will not change, as long as they do not change their policies the transfer.

Before Bayern Munich draw at home to Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen last weekend, the current German Bundesliga leaders have scored 20 goals in their most previous three games in all competitions but since their meeting with the reigning German champions, they've been able to find the back of the just once. Is this a major concern for Vincent Kompany's men? Or do you think they'll bounce back to their convincing winning ways when they travel to Eintracht Frankfurt on Sunday?

Personally, I'm of the opinion that Bayern Munich will get the better of their opponents this weekend but will like to read your opinions

This is football and anything can happen and anything that tends to happen will still depend on how they approach any of the games they’ll be playing afterwards. They may not be able to score plenty of goals by weekend when they play against Frankfurt but will do in their upcoming matches after that one. That is not to say, they’re are already declining in performance, that’s the nature of football. Keeping up with a consistent performance is very derailing and only few teams can do that till the end. I still have trust in Kompany’s players and also on his strategies, he’ll do well as the head coach and this is just the beginning as we will get to see better performances by the players in their upcoming games.

[TelolettOm]

Monchengladbach is not longer the same as they were before since last season. They are yet to put things in the right order and today's result is another prove that their performance is declining. Monchengladbach lost to Augsburg with a scoreline of 2-1.

Mönchengladbach's performance has indeed declined quite a bit since the 2022/2024 season. Even last season, they could only finish in 14th position, and this season, there has been quite good movement. However, their consistency still needs to be improved in order to optimize all the chances they have to win.

The result was almost a draw, but fortunately a decisive goal by Alexis Claude Maurice really saved Augsburg.

However, in the match against Augsburg, Mönchengladbach missed many chances. Augsburg didn't play that well, only their counterattacks worked effectively. Meanwhile, Mönchengladbach still couldn't handle it well, even making quite a blunder when they started to bring the ball into the middle, which was finally thwarted by Augsburg players quite easily.

Since the draw with Bayer Leverkusen, they have another disappointing result in the Champions League when they met Aston Villa. Losing to a team like Aston Villa is a failure in my opinion, even though Aston Villa were playing at home, Bayern Munich should have at least been able to get 1 point.

In Bayern Munich's domestic match this week, they will also only face Eintracht Frankfurt, they should be able to win, but let's see, whether they get disappointing results again like the previous 2 matches or not.

[X-ray]

Today we will watch the match between Leverkusen vs Holstein Kiel, and I think this is a fairly easy match for Xabi Alonso's squad because the difference in performance between the two clubs is very far, we know how strong Leverkusen is and as we see that Holstein Kiel is a new team that started their season very badly which made them have to be at the bottom of the standings. Another reason why I said that this is an easy match for Xabi Alonso is because they will be the host in this match, so I am very confident that Leverkusen will succeed in getting three full points, and if in the end that happens then they will be able to shift Frankfurt's position which is below Bayern Munich, this will be a good shift.

I take under 5.25 for Leverkusen vs Holstein Kiel. This is my first time to see Leverkusen face Holstein Kiel. And it seems to me they're gonna win the game with a huge margin. Their opponent, Holstein Kiel, was in the relegation zone, had scored 7 goals and conceded 17.

This proves that Leverkusen can penetrate Holstein Kiel easily in this game. I expect they are gonna win with at least a 2-goal difference. It's most probably 4-0 for them to win the game.

Bayern Munich has shown signs of weakness. They dropped points in a 1-1 draw with Leverkusen last weekend and defeated Aston Villa in the Champions League. I believe Eintracht Frankfurt will defeat Bayern Munich, they will enjoy the feeling of standing at the top of the Bundesliga for the first time since the 1999/00 season. In the last 5 times welcoming Bayern, Eintracht Frankfurt also showed that they are not mediocre when they forced their opponents to accept defeat 3 times. If they continue to show such good luck against Bayern at home, the goal of winning seems not too far away for coach Toppmoller's team. Eintracht Frankfurt are likely to force Bayern to accept a second consecutive defeat.

Bayern Munich seems to be in bad shape after their last 2 disappointing matches, actually Bayer Leverkusen is not an opponent that they should have won full points. Bayern Munich's team manager also got a disappointing result last week in the Champions League.

We hope that in their next domestic match Bayern Munich can win when they face Frankfurt, I think there is a lot that the coach has to do from the defense and also the front line, so that Bayern Munich can play well and win the match.

Bad shape?!? I don't think so! Leverkusen is a great team at the moment and drawing against them is not a disappointment. Sure they wanted 3 points but it's not that easy. The loss in the UCL was unexpected but it's also not a disaster. If you look at the statistics you can see how dominant Bayern was, 17:5 shots, 11:1 corners, 70% possession. The only thing that was missing was a goal, nothing a coach can be blamed for. These games happen and I am 100% sure Bayern is not in panic mode. Frustration to not having scored yes, but they played a good game and it is what it is.
Also you say they should do something about the defense? They conceded 2 goal in 180 minutes. And like I said, West Ham only got 5 shots off. What defense should they work on here. 

[Hirose UK]

There are some good match today and I interested in watching Dortmund vs Union Berlin then Leverkusen vs Holstein Kiel and this is game that Dortmund and Leverkusen must win in order to slowly catch up with the points of several team at the top of the standings.
Dortmund vs Union Berlin is an away match for Dortmund but they still have the potential to win considering the performance between the two is quite different and shows that Dortmund is the favorite team that has quality of play far above Union Berlin.
Leverkusen vs Holstein Kiel is at home match for Leverkusen and they are guaranteed to win this game, I just looked at Leverkusen statistics and made them the favorites by taking the 1st goal, win for Leverkusen and also Over 3.5.

Their defeat to Aston Villa in the Champions League should be a spur to be even better in their next match. No one expected them to lose that match, but this is a match where anything can happen and Bayern Munich should feel that. Their next match will be away to Frankfurt, it won't be easy but I think they should be able to win. Frankfurt themselves are in very good shape right now, they could be at the top just below Bayern Munich at the moment. They also certainly won't want to be defeated just like that, they will definitely try to win the match, whatever it takes.

Of course Bayern will rise and not want to be carried away by the defeat they received and Frankfurt will certainly be a difficult opponent for Bayern, especially Frankfurt is a team that is quite strong when playing at home, but we also have to look at the overall strength of both teams and in my opinion Bayern clearly has a stronger strength than Frankfurt and also Bayern's motivation is much higher.
Usually a team like Bayern will play more aggressively when they experience defeat in the previous match so I think the same thing will happen in the next match and I am quite sure that Bayern will be able to win the next match with a big score.

Since the loses from Leipzig i can see Leverkusen performance is gradually better because since that match Leverkusen is still unbeated and draw result from Bayern Munich in Bundesliga last week i think it's fair result for them considering their opponent is strong team and about this match if i am not mistaken this is their first met in Bundesliga because previously Holstein Kiel only spend their time to playing at Bundesliga 2 but judging from the recent performance for both of teams certainly Leverkusen will get easy win from this match

About betting option i have checked it the odds for Leverkusen and they only have @1.10 and indeed this is quite low but i think this is normal considering Leverkusen only facing weak team this time and about your pick under 5.25 goals i think it is safe bets because although Holstein Kiel is weak team and probably Leverkusen will be easily to beat this team but i don't think Holstein Kiel will be lost with 5 goals margin or more

Frankfurt has an advantage in the match because Bayern Munich is their guest and Frankfurt's performance at home has been stronger so far. I think Frankfurt will try to take advantage of this match to shift Bayern Munich's position at the top of the standings because the victory they will get will make Bayern Munich's position drop to second in the standings. Although in terms of quality Bayern Munich is much more favored because they have a number of quality players.

I'm not so sure Bayern Munich will win the match with a big score because now Frankfurt also has a solid defense and so far they have not conceded a much larger number of goals in the previous match.

If they continue to show such good luck against Bayern at home, the goal of winning seems not too far away for coach Toppmoller's team. Eintracht Frankfurt are likely to force Bayern to accept a second consecutive defeat.

I just realized after looking at the Bundesliga standings that Eintracht Frankfurt is currently in second place, which makes me even more amazed with Eintracht Frankfurt also that one of their players is at the top of the Bundesliga's top scorers at the moment, he is Omar Marmoush. Personally, i don't think Eintracht Frankfurt can beat Bayern Munich, but all chances are still there, so it is still possible for them to win even though many doubt it will happen.
