Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

Most football fans didn't actually doubt him, infact most of us knew he would perform well because Bayern Munich is an already made team, coaches really don't need to do much for the success to start coming and showing. His Burnley team were no match for most teams in the EPL that's why he struggled. If you remember before Kompany's Burnley team qualified for the EPL, in the Championship they were rocking it like no mans business, Kompany was already making his name with a team that wasn't really a good match for most teams in the Championship then. But he surprised most of us back then that's why when he picked the Bayern Munich job, we knew sooner or later he was going to strive with the team.

Maybe only a few people, if not almost everybody, criticised the ability of Kompany managing Bayern Munich; we all thought he wouldn’t be able to do that because of how Burnley was performing under his management, and that is why everybody was thinking Kompany could not manage Bayern Munich, although I was saying then that Bayern Munich management must know why they signed Kompany as their manager.

since we all know that they will not bring someone who cannot be able to manage the club. Kompany is now making them proud, although Kompany's performance surprised many because we thought even if he was able to get the team on track, they would spend at least 1 season to make things go as they want.

This season is an opportunity for Harry Kane to get his first League title with Bayern Munich and this will be something he really hopes for and Harry Kane's presence has a significant impact on Bayern Munich's attack line. Continuous mistakes could have a bad impact on Bayern Munich so that in the remaining matches they must be able to ensure better results. Bayern Munich is indeed quite favored because their performance this season is much better than Leverkusen. For the Champions League, I am more confident in Inter Milan even though Bayern Munich is quite favored to qualify compared to Inter Milan.

For Bayern Munich's chances in the Champion League are indeed not that big because since the beginning of the season they have not shown impressive performance, but Bayern Munich also cannot be underestimated, they have even strength in their squad in all lines so that it is possible for them to turn things around.
Overall, Bayern Munich this season is quite good compared to last season, they made a lot of improvements and it was quite successful even though they were doubted at the beginning of the season.

Bayern Munich may have not looked so great since the start of the season, but they are still leading Bundesliga, and also still going strong at UCL as well. If that is "bad", I do not know what else people expected from them.

Last year they lost both, and this year they are on the path to win both so far. Maybe they will lose at UCL, any team could, UCL is a very strong competition and losing that isn't really terrible. But this doesn't mean Bayern will lose, they are still playing and they still have a chance. What we could see right now is just simple mathematical possibility going still strong with Bayern and as long as they have that, they should not be considered a team to beat, they are still strong at the moment.

It's too early to talk about winning even a single competition... Anything can happen before the end of the season... In the Bundesliga, Bayern don't have a big gap in the standings with Leverkusen... In the UCL, Bayern have the next matches against Inter, which does not guarantee a semi-final, especially as the opponent will be even stronger in the semi-finals... But Kompany's good work is certainly visible...

Of course, why will someone be in a rush to conclude that Bayern might win UCL. I can agree to that of Bundesliga despite the close six points gap. However, the semifinals might be their limit UCL because they will face either Madrid or Barcelona, based on the wing that they're.

First they need to beat Inter, which in my opinion is also a difficult task... For that they need to spend a lot of energy and field the best players... Although in the Bundesliga Bayern do not have such serious opponents in the schedule, so most likely Bayern will keep the leads in the standings... The main thing is not to make mistakes that Leverkusen can take advantage of...

[BALIK]

Bayern Munich have found their rhythm again after only one season of losses in the league. But one of the reasons for this is that Leverkusen are in worse shape this season than last season. I think Kompany is not a good manager for Bayern Munich and the fact that their rivals are having a bad season is an advantage for him. In the Celtic game we saw Bayern Munich sounding the alarm and I actually think they will find it really difficult against tougher opponents in the Champions League. Bayern Munich can win the league title but I would say that Kompany needs to win the Champions League to say that he is a good manager.

If Leverkusen had been in great form like last season, it would not have been possible for Bayern Munich to hold on to the top spot. Leverkusen were undefeated last season. The team drew only 6 matches. This season, out of 26 matches, Leverkusen has shared points in 8 matches and lost two matches. Leverkusen's performance has been a bit weak, so it has been easy for Bayern Munich to occupy the top spot of the table.

Bayern Munich now wants to do well in the Champions League. If Bayern Munich can qualify for the final, then I would say Kompany has succeeded. But I don't think Bayern Munich will be able to qualify for the Champions League final.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

Frankly speaking, this record sounds extremely strange considering how Bayern usually dominates the Bundesliga. It is clear that these are specific conditions for setting a record (a new coach does not appear every year), but still.
As for Kompany, it is difficult to judge how good or bad he is - Bayern should take the Bundesliga title in any case, and the quarter-finals of the Champions League are almost nothing to draw conclusions about. Last season, Dortmund were in the final, remaining in 5th place in the Bundesliga.

After reading about the record I just thought so too, I thought how possible would it be for Bayern Munich that dominated this league for years and not win 3 consecutive away games all these years. It means the teams here too are not always easy to beat at their home stadium. The record is really strange for a dominant team like Bayern Munich but I guess this is football and nothing is impossible.

You are right it is impossible to rate Kompany’s performance now but so far they are on the right track and they looks better than when under Tuchel’s leadership. Their performance is not perfect yet but there is improvement in their game compared to last season.

I would reserve all comparisons until the end of the season,  I think Kompany should focus more on winning the Bundesliga because any mistake from him, Leverkusen would take over since they're only two wins away from leveling up with Bayern Munich. The margin is low and Bayern needs to be more careful. I don't see Bayern winning the champions League this season, they are weather side compared to Barcelona and PSG. Their form weakened slightly lately and they need to find back their form before this title slips from their hands.

Their next matches are with bottom seated on the table but after that, Bayern has match with Augsburg and they're playing from away. They really need to win these matches to seal their position at the top and increase their chances of winning the title.

...........................

In my opinion, Kompany has done something extraordinary in his first season as Bayern Munich coach, currently they are at the top of the Bundesliga standings with a 6-point advantage over Leverkusen, he also managed to lead Munich to qualify for the UCL quarter-finals.
Although the chances of winning the UCL Trophy are very small, in the hunt for the Bundesliga Trophy, they are at the forefront. Now all that remains is to maintain the points advantage over Leverkusen to win their first trophy as a coach.

Under Kompany, Bayern Munich have been impressive this season with a number of big wins. And of course, when it comes to the Bundesliga, they are favorites to be champions this season. But unfortunately, in the last 2 matches they have only managed to get 1 point and hopefully this will be the last time Bayern Munich loses points. 6 points is not a big enough gap, if in the remaining matches Bayern Munich slips again, it is not impossible that Xabi Alonso's team can catch up and seize the top position from Bayern Munich.

I respect what Kompany is doing in Bayern, but still, I will always be of the view that Thomas Tuchel would have done the same, but the guy was not given the needed time to prove himself better. The club was never so bad when he left too and Kompany has reaped part of the good work he had done, which could be painful.

Regardless, Bayern is impressive now and I don't think any club will be able to defeat it by lifting the trophy this season. Although it needs to work harder because it's the good initial work that is helping the club, otherwise the 2 won matches, 2 draws and 1 loss in the last 5 matches is no praise and shouldn't continue.

But Kompany's good work is certainly visible...

I think the important point here is, Kompany's performance or achievement as a manager is very good considering how Munich is currently performing. I am one of those who doubt Kompany's capacity as a manager of a big team like Munich after seeing Kompany's record with Burnley. I even said Kompany was the last choice of Munich management after several big coaches rejected their offers. However, now Kompany has proven that he can handle a team like Munich. Munich is currently on the champion's path by leading the Bundesliga and qualifying for the UCL quarterfinals.

If Leverkusen had been in great form like last season, it would not have been possible for Bayern Munich to hold on to the top spot. Leverkusen were undefeated last season. The team drew only 6 matches. This season, out of 26 matches, Leverkusen has shared points in 8 matches and lost two matches. Leverkusen's performance has been a bit weak, so it has been easy for Bayern Munich to occupy the top spot of the table.

Bayern Munich now wants to do well in the Champions League. If Bayern Munich can qualify for the final, then I would say Kompany has succeeded. But I don't think Bayern Munich will be able to qualify for the Champions League final.

If Leverkusen were on form like last year, the gap wouldn't be this big neither. Just recently, Leverkusen failed to make points when Bayern lost points, that should tell you how much Leverkusen isn't on form. The reason why Bayern Munich will be title winners at the end of the season isn't because Bayern Munich is good, it would be because nobody else is as good as them.

Bayern is worse than last year by many stats, and yet Leverkusen is even worse, that is why even though Bayern is worse than last year, they will end up with a title this year. I wonder how many points they will finish the season with, if it is less than last year then I will laugh at the situation so much. Tuchel got fired for absolutely no reason at all.

[Adams0001]

When Kompany first came to Bayern Munich, many doubted his capacity as a coach. Not without reason, because before coming to Bayern Munich Kompany coached the Burnley team which ended in relegation because there were no quality players but now he is at Bayern Munich he has everything so he can apply the strategy he has and succeed even Bayern Munich will soon win the Bundesliga title.

That is the reason why Kompany is better at Bayern and is sluggish in the previous club league. The reason is, Bayer with a team that has good finances and classy players, or you could say he is just continuing the previous era and applying the tactics he has. Even now he still has the opportunity to win the champions league even though it is difficult but it does not rule out the possibility that it could happen.

Most football fans didn't actually doubt him, infact most of us knew he would perform well because Bayern Munich is an already made team, coaches really don't need to do much for the success to start coming and showing. His Burnley team were no match for most teams in the EPL that's why he struggled.

But he surprised most of us back then that's why when he picked the Bayern Munich job, we knew sooner or later he was going to strive with the team.

You are right, Bayern Munich is an already established team, just like Real Madrid is and any coach that joins the team will undoubtedly succeed and win a title before the season finishes. Kompany has been performing well for Munich this season, allowing the club to progress to higher tiers of the league and the Champions League. Tuchel tried but failed to assist the team win the UCL he merely won the league title, and I am sure before he ever arrived to the club, they were in fine shape before dismissing their coach and bringing Tuchel in.

Currently, Kompany is in top form and has already predicted that Munich will win the Bundesliga title this season with Harry Kane, as well as the UCL trophy, because they are dominating Bayern Leverkusen in the round 16th home and away, and while Inter Milan is doing well in their league, Munich has a record on them and I believe they will still have the opportunity to defeat Inter Milan and qualify for the next round.

Bayern Munich believes they will win the league title, which is why they did not put too much pressure on some of their league games. Munich will do whatever it takes to get three points in their next game because Xabi Alonso is doing everything he can to top Munich in the league table, which I am sure will be difficult, but anything is possible. Let us see how the season goes.

[el kaka22]

Bayern Munich this season is doing 2.38 at the league on average, they did 2.11 last year at the league as a full season. We are still not done, and we could see them still be better, and on average we should be expecting them to finish the season with around 80 points, if they can do that then they would be eight points higher than last year and that would be better. Obviously we do not still know where they will end up, because they could get worse, and Leverkusen could still not catch up neither, we could see both teams do badly, we haven o idea.

The real question is, Kompany can't be better manager than Tuchel, so what changed this year? What made them better? Is it really Kompany? Or is it something totally different?

[KTChampions]

Here's how bookmakers see their odds at the moment:

Eintracht Frankfurt - 1.40

Fsv Mainz - 1.91

Rb Leipzig - 2.63

Sport-Club Freiburg - 4.00

Vfb Stuttgart - 8.00

In fact, they are the favorites along with Eintracht. Another thing is that in the Bundesliga it is normal for someone to suddenly take off, but then fall just as hard. Literally last season, Union played in the Champions League, and they miraculously avoided relegation. But maybe with the new Champions League format, Mainz's chances there will be slightly more than "getting a few defeats and ending their participation in the tournament."

Frankfurt's being favoured the most isn't surprising. They have proven their capability over the years. But for Mainz? This is new for them. Teams like Leipzig and Dortmund are also helping others find these chances with their bad forms. Especially Dortmund of course.

About falling just as hard, Mainz haven't still fallen though.    This is what makes the situation more interesting but let's see...

Mainz has a 3-point advantage over other clubs, I don’t know what’s going on with the additional indicators, but these 3 points alone are a weighty argument.
Mainz experienced a fall last year, instead of their usual place in the middle of the tournament table they ended up in 13th place. And there were seasons when they were about there, but last season they were very close to relegation if you look at the number of points.
Maybe once they get into the Champions League they will repeat Union’s path, who knows.

A lot of people doubted him because they feel he will not be able to manage the club and his doing perfectly well and even if bayern is an already made club they still need to be managed well if not they wont be able to acomplish anything this season and you can not compare somes past and present because the future the person will always want to get better and this is first season so making the fans proud and kompany is taking is job very seriously, and kompany wanted a good record for him self and this is why is doing everything inhis power to bring the club to success and for now his still on track and for some time now even bayern have been maintening a very good postion and even leverkusen is not close even with all the effort they are trying to put in place they still can not over the throne bayern for now.

Of course, why will someone be in a rush to conclude that Bayern might win UCL. I can agree to that of Bundesliga despite the close six points gap. However, the semifinals might be their limit UCL because they will face either Madrid or Barcelona, based on the wing that they're.

It still seems a bit excessive to expect Bayern Munich to be the champion in the Champions League this season although it is not impossible for Bayern Munich fans to hope for this season. But if we look at the opponents that Munich could potentially meet in the Champions League, it would certainly be more realistic to expect the Bundesliga trophy this season for Munich because the chance of winning the trophy in the Bundesliga is certainly a little bigger for Munich than their chance in the Champions League this season.

We have not called it an achievement because Kompany has not finished this season, what should be an achievement is an achievement that reaps proud results but this time it has not, Kompany has not finished it this season so we can assume that Bayern Munich's performance in Kompany's hands this season has improved and has a good enough match so that it is at the top of the standings, we are still disappointed with the match at Burnley, so we don't need to rush to admit that Kompany has an achievement at this time.

bad things could happen in the last few matches that allow Leverkusen to catch up, we won't know something like that in the remaining weeks, right?

Bayern Munich was an already made team not anymore. Now they are like any other team that i know competing in the Champions League. Any coach that is not good at his job will not win a title if he dont do better. Not minding the level of players you have, a coach guidance and tactics is needed for any team.

I like Kompany because he is doing a very good job this season at Bayern Munich, wining a trophy this season is a well honor to the coach.

One thing about all this things is that immediately Bayern Munich decided to hire Vincent Kompany as a coach, it was already a sign that Kompany is a great coach but just waiting to unleash his potential for the team that is most deserving of it. I think any coach that has the knowledge and ability to train a top team well, when given a team like Burnley to coach, they may fail woefully because they won’t get all that they need as the team will not be financially available to get the best players they want.

This season has been a great one for Kompany and moving the club to win the Bundesliga after failing to win it last season as a result of poor performance is something he’ll be much applauded for in the end. Kompany is a well to go coach and all eyes are on him on winning his first trophy in his debut season for Bayern Munich. He has been given a big task to fulfill in the Bundesliga, and he should not forget that at least a trophy is needed to stand out as one of the best coaches this season.

In the mean time, there are some top and tough contenders who would pose a possible threat to Bayern Munich actually winning the champions league trophy so I will slightly agree with you as to the fact that it can be considered excessive to think Bayern Munich at this point is going to win the champions league, nevertheless this doesn't put out the place of the possibilities and chances around such events happening as its very possible and we have literally seen that in other leagues so no room for undermining anyone let's keep hoping for the best.

Yes, many people had doubts about him in various ways that he might not be able to manage the Bayern Munich club properly, But at the moment, it is perhaps being presented very well to everyone that he is taking the Bundesliga club forward in the right direction. In every match of the previous season I used to watch the game of Bayern Munich then they have not been able to achieve anything good that season but Bayern Munich is on the verge of achieving a lot this season. Because we still see that Bayern Munich are at the top of the Bundesliga and Bayern still have a strong position in the UEFA Champions League.

One thing I love so much in this Bayern Munich winning the league this season is Harry kane, I'm just glad that at the end his finally going to brea the personal jinx and win for himself his first ever trophy in his life. I just love that feeling and I'm sure going to watch the game that will crown Bayern Munich champions of Germany. Another thing right now is that, Bayern Munich is still in contention for the treble before they are still in every competition available to them currently. The league is already sure for them, let's wait and see what happens in the other competitions.

[Slow death]

I like Kompany because he is doing a very good job this season at Bayern Munich, wining a trophy this season is a well honor to the coach.

I also like his work, but having lost points in the last 2 games and knowing that the league has few games left to finish, it was not a good move, now the distance in points with Leverkusen is only 6 points and this puts pressure on Bayern players and raises many doubts in Bayern fans

It's funny that Bayern lost points against weak opponents: Bochum and Union Berlin. The next opponent is a weak team again, but since in the last 2 games Bayern lost points against weak teams, I believe that most Bayern fans will have little confidence in Bayern winning the next game. Honestly, the title still seems like a distant dream.

I understand why you are excited about Bayern Munich chances of winning three trophies this season. It is very exciting to see team doing so well in many competitions. Bayern Munich has already won league title and now everyone is watching to see how they will do in the other competitions. I am sure many fans are eagerly waiting to see how they will play in their remaining games. An let's see what they will do next in their games. I hope they will not disappoint their fans.
