Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[Stormisover]

I am eagerly waiting for the first match of Bundesliga after the international break. The match will be between Leverkusen vs  Frankfurt. Leverkusen did not start the season well. And Leverkusen failed to win in both matches. And then we saw that leverkusen fired ten hag. This is Leverkusen's first match with new coach Kasper Hjulmand.

Frankfurt is not a weak team. frankfurt is one of the renowned teams in Bundesliga. Frankfurt has won two  matches this season and is in second place in the table. Frankfurt is in better form compared to Leverkusen.
An interesting thing is that leverkusen has won all their last 5 matches against Frankfurt. Although Frankfurt is not a weak team, but  their past performance against  Leverkusen is not good. So Frankfurt will have to play very carefully if they want to win this match.

The game isn't just going to be all about maintaining their fine record against Frankfurt, but it's going to be like a test for new coach Kasper Hjulmand. His predecessor wasn't able to uphold the status that Xabi Alonso left so it would be a lot of pressure for him. Bayer Leverkusen used to be a very strong team but under Ten Hag, they became a hollow of themselves and it's not just fans that would be hoping that something positively different occurs tonight, but I think the management as well.
 Like you said, Frankfurt aren't a small team, even though they sold their talisman, Hugo Ekitike, they have still be pushing forward so hopefully, tonight would not be different and they would get over their fear for Leverkusen and get the much needed three points.

Hmm it's really gonna be a tough match now that Bayern Leverkusen have a new coach and I believe Kasper Hjulmand wouldn't like to lost his first game so it's so gonna be unpredictable as Frankfurt is in their best form since the starting of the Germain Bundesliga I can't really tell who's gonna win the game or should I say it will be a draw match since Bayern Leverkusen has won five out of their last five meeting, and Erik Ten Hang is no longer the coach everyone was kind of worried about and Kasper Hjulmand wouldn't like to lost the game so I will just say judging from this it might be a draw match, or what do you guys think?

Bayer Leverkusen have been surprisingly poor with their performance this new campaign. I think the departure of their former manager Xabi Alonso and some of the key players that won the league under the Spanish manager hugely contributed to the club's poor form this season. Less than a month into the new season, they've already sacked Alonso's successor Erik Ten Hag and will now have to face Eintracht Frankfurt for their first league game after the first international break of the season.

Playing at home, I think Leverkusen stands a good chance of getting their first domestic win of the season but they'll have to perform better than they've ever done this season to achieve that. The game is in the 55th minute already with home team leading by 2:1.

I was initially surprised by Bayer Leverkusen's performance, scoring twice early in the first half, but I was very disappointed to see Robert Andrich leave the field after a foul and receiving a red card.
This gave Eintracht Frankfurt a great opportunity to stage a comeback.
What do you think? Can Bayer hold on to the 2-1 scoreline, or will Eintracht Frankfurt even win?

I think sacking Ten Hag was not the solution, they were suffering from the exit of their key players, it would take some time for the team to harmonize play again and come back to good performing days. I wouldn't even be surprised if this game ends in a draw, I just hope they're patient with this new manager and not cast him out his predecessor who they sacked after just 3 games in charge.

Nice game for Kasper Hjulmand the new coach of Leverkusen in his first match as head coach of Leverkusen as his team went two goals up in the first half with a good ball possession too, I was impressed with the way that the team played but with Leverkusen going a man down it's looking not that good for the home team as Frankfort has scored a goal Leverkusen should try and maintain the score line this way and get all three points.

The victory was like a celebration of coach Erik Ten Hag departure I suspect that Leverkusen defeat was intentional on the part of the players because they did not like Ten Hag management style. I would not be surprised if something like this happened when the players did not like the coach's methods. Now Leverkusen game is back to being quite good, which proves that Leverkusen players can still perform. Even with a new coach, they were still able to score in the final minutes, just like Leverkusen did under Xabi Alonso.

What happened here?
I haven't seen a game, and I don't think there are any decent highlights published yet, but from just looking at the snippet, I'm guessing it must've been a fierce game.
I'm not shocked to see Leverkusen winning, but doing so playing 10 men from 59th minute against a strong team like Eintracht is a bit of a surprise.

A satisfying debut for Hjulmand and a much-needed 3 points for Leverkusen (and their first win of the season).

You may not be far from the truth because looking at the game Leverkusen had two red card and still yet still came out victorious in this game was able to win convincingly by 3:1, this showed that Leverkusen there was something wrong fundamentally in Leverkusen which maybe internal friction within the team.

I am not expecting anything spectacular in this encounter because we can’t tell what is really the strength of this manager if he can really manage a team well. He may have shown to be the best man for the job, but his actions on the field will tell more about that. We all thought Eric Ten Hag will do well in Bayern Leverkusen but in fact, he made the biggest blunder that might even cost him his career going forward as he won’t get to manage big teams like before again. For this match, the outcome cannot be said to anything yet, we will just cross our fingers and watch how the new coach manager to make his players play in this match.

This is a clear explanation of why Leverkusen management sacked Ten Hag, he couldn’t win a single match and Hjulmand has won two matches since he joined the team.

I am now certified that Ten Hag is not a good coach, I used to support him that he lack players, but for Hjulmand to use the available players to defeat Frankfurt that has already recorded two wins this season against all the two teams Ten Hag wasn’t able to defeat, I am now in support of Leverkusen for that quick action to save their team from relegation. Now we can’t say that Leverkusen will relegate anymore because Hjulmand seems to have potential and might help the team to maintain its standard this season before getting new players to make it balance next season or come January.

Sometimes players can actually cause the sack of a coach by the way they play, it can be very ture that the players really did not like ten Hags style of coaching but they just had to keep going with the flow and lost the games that led to his sack because somehow it explains why after his exit the team is now winning games in a row, even their performances at the games are showing they are playing better than they did under ten Hag.

[Chilwell]

Eric Ten Hag didn't even have a chance to coach Bayern Leverkusen because he only took charge of two Bundesliga matches before his sack so it will be unfair to say something bad about him despite old bad encounter he got at Manchester United. Bayern Leverkusen was too mean to Eric Ten Hag; how did they expect the coach to manage the team without those quality players who were part of the squad that won the Bundesliga with an undefeated run. Anyone who blames Ten Hag on this one doesn't really wish well for him. Let us just analyze the game based on the current stands of both teams which is that Eintracht Frankfurt stands better to win Leverkusen due to their current performance. 

I will agree with you because two matches is not good for the test, who knows maybe if he is still around, he can make it out like this. I think many will not support him due to his previous performance at his former Club. Despite he had short time, i don't see sacking him is a problem because they could have had an agreement which both party agreed. Erik ten Hag should take a break to avoid further damage.

Kasper Hjulmand has done very well in his first game because the performance was excellent. Should we start saying that Leverkusen have getting coach, despite he is just starting, but this is a good beginning, if Erik ten Hag could have done something like this, he will still be around. This is a wonderful performance shown at his first game, let see how he play his second match before we judge him.

I really commend Kasper Hjulmand for winning his first game at Bayern Leverkusen, it gives a good hope that the team might come back stronger again if the coach have some good coaching strategies. Bayern Leverkusen won E. Frankfurt by 3:1, what caught my attention in this match is how the team held on to a double red card and still succeeded in winning the game. This match also made me to understand that sometimes, the bookies are right because they gave Bayern Leverkusen the lesser odd even when E. Frankfurt performed better in previous games but i also got to know that H2H also matters in a match, Bayern Leverkusen is always known for winning E. Frankfurt in their previous meetings and they did it again. It's a good feeling when a coach begins with a win in his first match in a new club.

This is the type of performance that everyone wants to see from Bayer Leverkusen. Did Leverkusen make the right decision by sacking Erik Ten Hag immediately and hiring another good coach? If Erik Ten Hag were coaching Leverkusen, they would lose the match and Ten Hag would complain about the red card the player received during the game. Frankfurt is not a small club and is extremely good at scoring goals and Leverkusen win the game with the help of their new manager.

I was not surprised by the performance because Leverkusen still has good players in the team, the team signs players, and the team also gets some young talented players on loan. Although this is the new manager's debut match, with the performance I saw today with Leverkusen, they play better than when Erik Ten Hag was coaching them, so Leverkusen will be able to play well.

This is the truth, players can decide to perform very bad when they are not happy with their coach or they don't like the way he is treating them in training it has happened in Chelsea and some other teams which I can not remember but the case of Ten Hag is very different because he just resumed as the manager of the team it would be difficult for the players to hate him that much to the point of losing games just to see him get sacked. Under their new manager today the players appeared very excited and motivated to play and the result after the game shows that they will be doing more good in the coming games.

Grimaldo's unique free-kick hit the goalkeeper's back. I'm not sure if this goal was credited to Grimaldo, but he completely deserved it. At the end of the match, Bayern Leverkusen won a free-kick near the penalty area, which Grimaldo was naturally going to take. Grimaldo converted it. These accurate goals can't be luck he clearly works hard his free-kicks are incredible.

[imamusma]

Leverkusen successfully defeated Eintracht Frankfurt with a score of 3-1. It was their first win after sacking Ten Hag, and I think the decision was absolutely right. Without dominating possession, Leverkusen played more effectively and managed to create many good chances. This style of play seems similar to the strategy once implemented by Xabi Alonso, so I think Leverkusen management has now appointed the right manager. Additionally, Kasper Hjulmand seems capable of meeting expectations, although he still has a lot to prove in the future.

[Adbitco]

Are we not surprised? Seriously I am because if this was Ten Hang's team, the would have lost totally to Frankfurt. They didn't just win but they won convincingly and also played well in the process. Bayern Leverkusen got one red card just when they were winning 2 - 1 and the game went on to 90+ minutes and they got another red card to make it two red cards. Guess what, they still scored again to bring the score line to 3 - 1

Incredible, Leverkusen's performance truly surprised me this time. There were many predictions that Leverkusen would lose this time too, but many argued for several reasons:
- New coach (doubtful ability)
- Left by key players
- Red card since the 59th minute
- Against Frankfurt

Who would have thought that Kasper Hjulmand would surprise everyone by leading Leverkusen to victory, despite playing with 10 men and even receiving another red card late in the match, with 9 players beating 11-man Frankfurt 3-1. Look at the stats, Frankfurt dominated, and Leverkusen looked hopeless. But their attacks were incredible.

Yeah, I wouldn't think of another outcome if Ten Hag was in charge. The poor coach made Bundesliga history with the fastest removal of a coach after only two rounds and like 3 games including a victory, draw and a defeat.
I don't know if this will blow up his career for good or not because this opportunity to help Bayer Leverkusen get in its feet was completely destroyed and that was very shameful for him.
Bayer Leverkusen victory in this round was good and the upcoming games will tell more about the team. Eric Ten Hag problem is he fails to understand this generation of players and cannot control them.
