Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[LUCKMCFLY]

Most of us would probably think that if there is a team that can shift Bayern Munich and win the title, it is Borussia Dortmund, but it is Leverkusen who can do it. I think like that not without reason, because looking at the seasons that have passed, Borussia Dortmund is a team that can put pressure on Bayern Munich and in the previous 2 seasons they were just unlucky because they had to lose in the last match which determined who would be the champion. But last season, Leverkusen appeared and they succeeded with their extraordinary performance.

Well, this season Dortmund haven't done well at all, they're in a position that isn't very good, they're out of everything, however, the one that has made the difference has been Leverkusen, Leverkusen didn't focus much on the Bundeliga but on the UCL, so that was something that Xabi proposed, so far they've done well, but Leverkusen really is a team that has come out ahead and in a surprising way, of course for me the Xabi effect had a lot to do with it, he changed everyone's mentality and made them a winning team.

Seems as if there will be a fight between two German teams today but the thing is, it's not a domestic competition. Since the arrival of Xabi Alonso as head coach of Bayern Leverkusen, Bayern Munich has found or had it difficult to beat Leverkusen. Today is another test for Vincent Kompany and his men to try and see how they could get past Xabi Alonso and his men and book a place in the Champions League Quarter finals after two legged tie.

The truth is it hurts, because they are the best in Germany and the fact that they have to eliminate each other is not something that I like, I love both teams, I would have liked them to face Benfica, PSG, even Barcelona, ​​or Real Madrid, that's how football is, today will be a very good, exciting day, and I hope the best team wins and advances.

There are no matches scheduled to be played today in the Bundesliga, so today all eyes will be on the match between Bayern Munich VS Bayern Leverkusen, or better known as the Bayern Derby.

and even though this is a champions league match, but because both teams are from the same league, so it is quite interesting to discuss here. This is a fairly crucial match for both teams, the meeting of the two teams is always a match that is eagerly awaited by the audience. In the previous meeting in the 22nd week of the Bundesliga, the match did not go according to what the fans had imagined, because what was expected was that the match would present high intensity and competition, instead the match became a bit monotonous, no goals were scored and the match ended with a score of 0-0.

This time the two teams met at a higher level, to compete for a place in the top 8 of the champions league, so I hope this match will present quite tight competition, and according to what the fans expected.

Your first response to me is actually pointing somewhere that you didn't understand what  I typed or probably you didn't read up. It's clearly stated that it's not a domestic competition and even went further to still state the competition which is the champions league. The only reason why it's brought here is because it concerns a German team which is allowed. It's not just a German team but two German teams of which I know you all are aware of, then at the same time you still buttressed my point.

3 wins 2 losses - I don't even know if this is a positive dynamic for Dortmund. At least this is a small percentage of points to count on a quick (considering the number of rounds until the end of the tournament it is necessary) growth in the tournament table. So far, nothing has changed fundamentally - the same high volatility inherent to Dortmund. Zero draws.

I would still say it's a positive result for them considering the fact that they have been mainly off in previous games. Also the fact that despite their bad season so far the difference from their stand point presently and the top 4 is really not that big, 6 points and of which they can recover it if they maintain this their new form.

Muh... What new form? Yesterday they couldn't win at home against Lille and now I think they are underdogs as the decisive game will be away. However, Dortmund is volatile/unstable so maybe they will be lucky in France. In any case, I regret that I thought that they could at least win a home game in the Champions League against a clear underdog and I lost my multiple bets.

[beerlover]

Every league usually has a popular team that will always disrupt your betting slip. If possible, it would be better after this you can exclude the team from your betting slip. It's okay, make a valuable experience.

Btw, I'm not sure Dortmund is able to qualify for the next round in the second leg later. Seeing yesterday's appearance made me skeptical with Dortmund's future this season. While competing at home should provide great opportunities that should be well utilized. Unfortunately Dortmund is not like the season again.

If later Dortmund really failed at UCL, this team must focus on the bundesliga. But if in the bundesliga also has a failure to win UCL or UEL tickets, it will be a really bad season and Niko Kovač needs to be responsible for solving this problem.

Dortmund will probably fail at UCL eventually, even if not this stage, eventually they will lose because I do not see them winning it after all, that doesn't mean they will do any good at Bundesliga neither.

Let's be realistic with each other and realize that we are going to end up with them not having a good period at the moment, we should not be getting any good results at all and we are going to have to see them have one fully bad season. That is fine, they needed a reset and I am sure that they are going to be better next year. Wish they didn't fire Terzic because they would have done better this year with him, look at last season and how good they did, would have been pretty similar for them without a doubt.

Dortmund are a two phased team and their consistency is not what you should depend on all the time. Just like they did yesterday, when you least expect them to not do well, that’s when they’ll show their best performance and when you expect them to do well and win a game, they do not come out at their best and make one feel discouraged about their style of game. An away game at Lille won’t be easy for them, Lille will also want a win in their home and won’t settle for a draw. I still see a tough match between this two in France when they play their second leg match of the round of 16 in the champions league competition.

It is obviously a difficult situation for them, because I am sure if they were given the choice they would not want to meet so soon because they are in the same league and if they had the choice they would prefer to be in different tables. The match is currently underway and Bayern Munich are already ahead through a goal scored by Harry Kane. The first half is also about to end so this is a good advantage for Bayern Munich. Let's see who will come out on top in this second leg, because there is still a lot of time left to turn things around.

Freiburg failed to maximize the moment to climb into the top four, because Freiburg who played away against Augsburg ended the match with a goalless draw. At least, at this moment they could have given a threat to Eintracht Frankfurt who is in third place, although they could not overtake them directly but "if" Freiburg managed to beat Augsburg then of course Freiburg would have a better chance to be able to compete to finish in the top four. But indeed,  there are still many remaining matches to be played in the rest of this season and of course, Eintracht Frankfurt is also not in a completely safe position. Because it could be, in other matches their points gap will be closer to compete to finish in the top four.

But Freiburg looks stronger than they are if you are having a close eye on the Bundesliga. I know I am not in the position to argue here, since I am losing in the Bundesliga pools, but still it is a result that is closer to reality than Freiburg being 5th most of the time.

I see Freiburg as they have been in other seasons, they never fight for the title, so finishing in the positions that qualify for European competitions is their main objective. But surprisingly, Mainz is in the position that qualifies for the European Champions League while teams like Freiburg, Dortmund, Leipzig, which are often the ones that occupy these positions, are below Mainz. Freiburg can still occupy the 3rd position if they win in the next game and do not lose points in the remaining games.


As a Bayern fan I'm happy to know that the board will keep Upamecano:

Verbal agreement now at final stages between FC Bayern and Dayot Upamecano over new deal.

After negotiations advancing as reported two weeks ago, verbal agreement being sealed now with the French defender.

source: https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1896482427780182138

and I hope that most of the players stay, but there have to be some changes in the squad to be able to win the Champions League in the next few years.

That is true, they have their uptrends almost every season, but it would never be enough to compete with the likes of Bayern and Leverkusen. That would be more like a miracle when Leicester City won the Premier League several years ago. Everyone else in the league would have to suck while Freiburg plays the season of their club's lifetime.

But I like Freiburg because they are a good example of a club can get a lot out of relatively small finances. It is not this hyper bloated salary club where everyone makes 10 million and more, they have a lot of very down to earth players and therefore I think they deserve to get the best for what they are playing.

The truth is they have been incredible stable recently and it is interesting that their score difference is so bad, yet they are where they are because Leipzig is so bad. But you can see that many clubs are underperforming because otherwise Dortmund in position 10 would have no chance anymore to qualify for the CL, but they can still do it.

[AYOBA]

They have played the game and ended 1-1. I don’t really know what to say about Dortmund at this point because I was really expecting Dortmund to win this match. The reason is that this is their home match, and they should try everything possible with the match since they are at home and to be able to qualify for the next round. Lille is not a weak team, but I wasn’t expecting Dirtmjbdvto to allow them to end the game in a draw. I was expecting to try everything possible to win the match because of the home advantage that they have.

Dortmund performances look very unserious, which I was expecting Lille to win the match because even if you look at the possession, they have higher numbers of possession than Dortmund; I was really surprised when I saw Dortmund leading Lille by 1:0 right from the 22nd minute of the time.

Lille tried everything possible to dominate the match, but it was not possible due to their inconsistency. And  Dortmund lose guard because have misused their home opportunity; if not, they are not supposed to win their match against Lille yesterday.

The 1st leg game between Bayern and Leverkusen in the Champions League round of 16 has just ended.
I expected it to be an even game, given the most recent results of head to head games between those two, but it was a completely one sided show.
Leverkusen got demolished 3-0. An early goal by Kane set the tone, then another one by Musiala in the 54th and then a nail to the coffin for Leverkusen: a red card for Mukiele in the 62nd minute - after that, it was clear that Leverkusen wouldn't be able to do much and limited themselves to defense but with no luck, as they lost another one with Kane scoring from a penalty.

Looks like the Champions League dream is pretty much over for Leverkusen.

The fixtures in the champions league is something that no one can easily predict but seeing two rivals from the same league play against each other some times makes me feel bad because they would have had a better chance to meet in the finals if they defeat other teams if they were grouped with other different teams but the game has been planned and played already with the better team this season winning the first leg. Full time now in the game and Bayern Munich didn't gamble on the game because they have plans to make it to the champions League next round as well as taking back their position in the league by winning the league title ahead of Bayer Leverkusen,  from the beginning of the game Bayern Munich was the better team and the 3 goals scored was well played I think this result should take them to the next round because Leverkusen can not defeat them 3:0  in the returning leg with the performance they displayed today.

In the second half, Leverkusen also could not do anything after one of their players had to receive a red card and leave the field of play. It really has been a painful blow for Leverkusen because they could not maximize their abilities in the second half with a squad that was already incomplete. In addition, Munich itself is also more competitive than Leverkusen so it is not easy for Leverkusen to turn things around in the second half of the match.

You definitely do not know what it means for a team that's plugged in this kind of form that they are this season wins two games in row and still in a competition like the Champions League then you will learn to respect such a team a bit. You're only bittered because you lost your bet.  Apart from Bayern Leverkusen who won the and Bayern Munich who are still in the competition, can you mention another German team that's still in the competition?
Both Stuttgart and Leipzig are ahead of Dortmund in the league currently and both teams also went to the champions League this season alongside Dortmund, where are they now???

As we all now know, football is a game that is played with much emotions and everyone knows the surprises that the game brings. I think it is a worthy effort to pay respect to every team that works at such level, showing their commitment and effort. Every match does not necessarily determine the fate of the team in the competition but how much the team is willing to go through in the competition. The victory achieved is not a strategy, but the mentality and the fighting spirit which is growing in the process of the season. No one can deny the efforts of the teams which are still in the process of the combat both at domestic league and the European club competitions. This is especially intense about football and that is why it remains an interesting production for all those who love the game on the field.

Leipzig Vs Mainz 05
What's really happening to Leipzig? They went ahead in the first minute just after kick off and were winning till half time. Just after the break, they are currently trailing by 1 goal, what's really happening to them! Leipzig has won only one game in their last five encounters in the league and has played 4 draws in the process. Are we expecting them to equalise and play another draw again today because it's less than 15 minutes for normal time on the clock.

Getting the first goal in the game doesn’t always determine the outcome of the game which was proven in the game. A team could score two early goals in the first half and end up losing the game at the final whistle. Leipzig were fortunate to score early but couldn’t maintain same momentum as they had in the first half of the game and fell behind in the second half. In the end, Mainz were the better side and went home with all three points.

That is right Football is very emotional and unpredictable game which makes it exciting for fans everywhere. It is very important to recognize how hard every team works when they play at high level. Just because team wins or loses one game it does not mean they will win or lose whole competition. But it does show how strong they are and how hard they try. A team does well when they are strong mentally and have a lot of spirit which they develop over season. We should appreciate all teams whether they play in their own country or in European competitions. What makes football such great game is how intense and passionate it is which is why fans all over world love it.

Nordi Mukiele is defender and his exit from the match will create wider difference for Bayern Munich to penetrate more freely to attack and that is the reason why in the second half after Nordi Mukiele came out Leverkusen could not do much because they also had to focus on the defense that was no longer intact, if all Bayern Munich chance became goal in the second half maybe this would no longer be lost by 3 goals but more.
Leverkusen chance of equalizing the aggregate score with Bayern Munich are very slim, Leverkusen must win by 3 - 0 more in the second leg match but it seems impossible to do because Bayern Munich themselves in the second leg match will definitely be more careful because their condition is advantaged by an aggregate advantage of 3 points.

[bitgolden]

Dortmund will end up with a lot of results that will cause a ton of trouble with everything, that is not the problem that they are facing right now, it is not really that hard for them to realize that whatever they have done recently isn't working.

Everyone is talking about the same thing, why are they having this type of problems when they are facing some issues like this, it has to be done better and that is the most important part. If they keep having these type of troubles then we are going to end up with becoming a mediocre team. So they need to realize what they can do to improve their situation and get better results, that has to be the most important part of their run and if they can do that then they can do better.

It's obvious that Bayern is in a good form to win the title this season than Leverkusen. From the look at their performance yesterday in UCL, it shows that Bayern is desperate and badly thirsty for trophies. Kompany has done a good work on the team, because I saw how aggressively they played just to make sure that they put Leverkusen in their place.

It seems that Bayer Leverkusen must think hard to be able to create a surefire strategy in the second leg later because it created three goals in one match in the Champions League with an not easy opponent is a challenge that is quite difficult to solve by Leverkusen. But I am sure Leverkusen will continue to try to be able to make it happen even with a very heavy taste and even if it is not successful, at least Leverkusen is only inferior to the conditions that are so honorable because they have tried as much as possible.

You're right, I think that's what makes it look more interesting and fun when you see teams struggling for a particular title. Of course is not that easy to competite with teams from different divisions which is why sometimes if any of this bigger teams got eliminated by smaller team more especially in champions league, I don't always blame them because every team is also struggling to be the champion so at this point they will always want to bring thier best performance just to see if they can go a long way.
