Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[redhack]

Dortmund doesn't seem to be continuing with Salih Özcan. His contract expires in 6 months and they haven't renewed it. Rather than letting him go for free at the end of the season, they can now earn some money for the team. There are teams interested in him. Beşiktaş is at the top of the list. They also needed a midfielder. Dortmund could earn €1-2 million from this transfer. It's better than nothing, as the player would leave for free at the end of the season anyway. This season, Salih has only come off the bench in 4 matches for Dortmund. I think this transfer will happen within the next week or two.

Bayern Munich having this much money is the reason why the league and other teams are having trouble. You can't tell a team to be not rich, that is not possible, so if they are rich they are going to do what they do. What they can do however is to make sure other teams could get rich as well. How?

Well, simply let the teams be owned by rich people and you can make it work, Germany is not as easy as other leagues to buy out a club by some rich oil dude, and because of that it ends up being a problem. However, if they can do that then they can get a good result.

I believe other teams are investing, but it's difficult to match Bayern Munich, which already boasts a very strong balance sheet and the largest fan base in the world. Furthermore, there may be Bundesliga regulations that make it difficult for investors to invest in other clubs for financial support. Besides Bayern Munich, perhaps only Dortmund has managed their team well enough. They're capable of producing world-class players, allowing them to compete at the top of the Bundesliga. However, they struggle to retain their players, which then attracts the attention of major European clubs with high bargaining power.

And this season, it's once again clear that Bayern Munich is very different from other teams in the Bundesliga, even though Dortmund is in second place after fifteen matches. However, if we look at the points gap between Bayern Munich and Dortmund, it's clear that Dortmund's investment and effort are far less than what Bayern Munich has invested. Therefore, this season, no team can pose a serious threat to Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, as Bayern Munich's nine-point lead will be a significant barrier for any other team to dislodge them from the top of the Bundesliga table this season.

Just because it is not that hard for Bayern to end up getting the title, doesn't mean that they can't focus on it. Because while it is true that winning the title isn't a huge deal, it is also true that not winning would be very terrible for them.

When Leverkusen won, people do not remember it but Bayern didn't came in second, they came in third and that season changed a lot for Bayern, many people got either fired or quit, and players changed a lot as well, not many from those years left neither and many new ones got in. So you need to realize that they do care about the league, because winning it is a pride thing and they can't live with not winning the title in any given year. For them, they should win it every single season.

Sure. Even if they are the favorite from the beginning of the season, they must focus on it,  if not another team will take over. However, Bayer Leverkusen are also their and with the current form they’re are showing us in their recent matches. They are becoming strong than how they started the season, they will give Bayern Munich a tough times if they continue with their current form. Can’t say much about Bayer Leverkusen right now, there is still time to decided whether they do the needful or not.

Unfortunately, there are championships like this, dominated exclusively by one team.
Unfortunately, this means that other teams aren't investing, and if you think about it, it takes a lot of money to invest to complete a season in a truly professional manner.
In fact, in the Champions League it's tough, as you're rightly saying.

Interestingly this season most of the championships that were known for their dominance by a single team is gradually becoming such that the dominance is shifting and now the competition has now increased and now most teams are trying to compete hard enough to end the dominance of a single team era. This has made most of those championship more interesting and has given more attention to them than before.

So far, Bayern Munich has had no financial problems, so they can acquire any player they want without worrying about the financial crisis, as long as it's reasonable and within their budget. However, that doesn't mean they're a reckless club. They carefully consider which players they recruit and don't overspend by buying players who may or may not be useful to the club.

Like last transfer window, they only spent €88.80 million on a few players. The most expensive was Luis Díaz,
a left winger for €70.00 million, and the rest were mediocre players. But the result was Luis Díaz's incredible performance.

Definitely the financial capability of Bayern Munich is what the club actually uses some time to actually get player that they want, part of what actually makes them more valuable is the fact that they win trophies yearly and this adds to their values because there is always a bonuses on the trophies which Bayern Munich actually takes most of it in the Bundesliga, this money actually allows them the freedom to even completely over haul almost the entire team and that’s what just happened since company took over.

But yet I also still put the blame’s on the other clubs because to me I think they are totally comfortable been the second best without building on that to overturn the Bayern Munich dominance. Most of the clubs that have managed to stay this second fiddle are clubs like Dortmund who I think also have little to actually fight it out against Munich dominance.

You're right Bayern Munich needs to focus on it else they might be surprised because the way Leverkusen is moving now they might have something up their sleeves but I think Bayern Munich should be more worried about Dortmund than Leverkusen. Bayern is in no pressure but I think it's better you secure what's already assured and win it then try your luck in other places and see if you can win other things too than focusing on the most difficult one and neglecting the easiest one. It will be disappointing to lose both trophies because they focused more on the champions league that's more difficult.

I don't think Bayer Leverkusen will do much than to qualify for a champions league spot. They are doing well but they can't challenge Bayern Munich for the title as it stands Dortmund is still ahead of them and Dortmund is  9 points behind Bayern Munich.

[Renampun]

It's obvious that the title belongs to Bayern this season and no club can stop them. Maybe, the rest clubs should use the rest of their matches to buggle up and improve their performance in preparation for the trophy next season because they've all lost it to Bayern already. Kompany did great to win the league back to back.

Munich continues to widen their gap with other teams and strengthen their dominance in the Bundesliga, and by looking at what they are doing, I am also confident that they can get the title this season, no team is able tostop their dominance, even their failure to get 3 points was caused by their careless in underestimating Mainz 05, but after that maybe they can take their opponents more seriously and not let the chances that the other team can seize their chance to win.

what the other teams can do is just to be able to secure positions 2,3,4, to be able to ensure their participation in the Champions League, for the Bundesliga title itself I think they can forget that.

In the Bundesliga Bayern Munich's dominance remains significant, leading the standings with a wide points gap over their second-place rivals. Dortmund previously inconsistent has begun to find its form, currently occupying second place. Leverkusen and Leipzig will likely only be competing for third and fourth place. Bayern Munich remains in the title race, as no other team has been able to break their dominance so far.

Bayern Munich philosophy is unique, relying on financial resources to build a strong and solid squad. These are just some of the factors common to other major teams like Real Madrid, Manchester City, and PSG. Bayern Munich also frequently poached top-class players from rival teams to weaken their rivalry. This strategy has been used repeatedly to maintain its dominance in the Bundesliga.

In fact, Dortmund can provide competition for the Bundesliga trophy, even though its financial condition is not like Bayern Munich. As a result of management prioritizing revenue by selling classy players and then buying talented young players at a cheaper price, it has resulted in them having difficulty reaching the level of Bayern Munich. If traditions like this can be changed, perhaps Bayern Munich will be under greater pressure than Dortmund.

With the way Bayern Munich have been dominating the Bundesliga, winning games humiliating some of the clubs they play in this very league (except for those that they drew with), with all these done since this season with time we won't be talking about who's going to top the league table or who's going to beat Bayern Munich but what we are going to be talking about soon is which team will finish second because Bayern Munich has made that number 1 spot they own and not even Dortmund (I don't trust them), Leverkusen or Leipzig can't stop them because they find it hard to maintain that consistency, is as if they have given up to let Bayern know that they too can win the title, is so sad. Between Leipzig, Leverkusen and Dortmund, which of them can we say are capable enough to stop Bayern Munich in their unbeaten run (because I know they can't snatch the 1st position from them just spoil their unbeaten streak)?

Its lower level of competition makes the Bundesliga less attractive compared to other leagues such as the EPL, Serie A and La Liga. Bayern Munich performance is still very stable, coupled with a very large points difference with their rivals, making the competition very easy for them. Other teams such as Dortmund, Leverkusen, Leipzig, Hoffenheim and Stuttgart are only maintaining the competition in the top 6 positions, to win the trophy is still very far from the hope of reality.
Kompany should take advantage of the less competitive season to maintain his players' fitness so they don't have any problems when playing in the Champions League. Perhaps now is the time for Kompany to focus more on the UCL because the Bundesliga trophy will almost certainly be theirs.

Unfortunately, there are championships like this, dominated exclusively by one team.
Unfortunately, this means that other teams aren't investing, and if you think about it, it takes a lot of money to invest to complete a season in a truly professional manner.

The German Bundesliga is already getting boring because i don't see how only one team is always the Champion from season to season while other teams are just there and not investing much in order to put out a great challenge against Bayern Munich. I don't know why teams like Borussia Dortmund, Stuttgart, Leipzig, Bayern Leverkusen cannot invest in their team to become formidable to the standard of Bayern Munich because these teams have been able to put up a minor challenge against Munich in recent years.

The Bundesliga was a competitive league until Bayern Munich's hegemony began. Until then, the teams you mentioned were building their squads with good, talented players and enjoying successful years in both the European leagues and the Bundesliga. I should point out that most teams were not well managed financially. Teams that couldn't manage their finances well began to fade from the league. Among them, Dortmund did the best job. With the academy they established, they essentially turned into a player development center. However, it was quite difficult for them to keep these players in their own league. Because there were places where the competition and struggle were much better.

The League tittle is important for Bayern Munich there is always a prize for winning your League tittle, Bayern Munich has always be winning the league i don't want any team in the Bundesliga to dominate the league but just them alone. Nothing can stop Bayern Munich from winning their tittle this season there performance is incredible i don't think any team has won them in the Bundesliga they want to win League tittle with a style by ending it unbeaten.

[Velvet78]

The Bundesliga is also one of top European leagues that don't have any game this weekend... Next games are even 2 weeks later!

Bayern Munich end this year with a very comfortable lead then. They are easily going to win the league title in this way. No team to challenge them at all.

This is why I'm wondering what they will do in the Champions League the most. Last season they couldn't make it further the quarter finals.

In the matches where they dropped points, they almost salvaged draws in the final minutes. They were close to losing in both games. Therefore, we have to consider the possibility that Bayern Munich will definitely lose at least once before the end of the season. Before these matches, they were saying they would never lose, but we saw that even Bayern Munich has weaknesses in Germany. Bayer Leverkusen finished the league undefeated a few years ago, which was the first time this had happened in the Bundesliga. Let's see if Bayern Munich can do something similar this year.

They also have matches against Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen. There's still a possibility they could lose those matches. Especially for Bayer Leverkusen, beating them has become a matter of great prestige, as they want to maintain their record. I'm sure they'll be even more motivated to beat them in the second half of the season.

The Dortmund vs Frankfurt game next year, next month, next two weeks might give Dortmund more chances to add more point because I have that feeling that Dortmund will win Franfurt in the upcoming game. This season’s bundesliga title race will be had for the other teams to catch up because the points gap between Bayern Munich and the second place dortmund is 9 points, and with the current performance of Bayern Munich it will be hard for them to lose two games or even a game meaning even if Dortmund wins Frankfurt there will still be a wide point gap.

Bayern Munich next game against Wolfsburg will be in favor of Bayern Munich and if they win the game the points gap will still be 9 points or even more.

Bayern Munich having this much money is the reason why the league and other teams are having trouble. You can't tell a team to be not rich, that is not possible, so if they are rich they are going to do what they do. What they can do however is to make sure other teams could get rich as well. How?

Undoubtedly, finance constitute a huge part as to why Bayern Munich remains dominant in the Bundesliga because, you would be able to get the right players that would give you the quality you need to win trophies in a local league.

However, Bayer 04 Leverkusen with Xabi Alonso did beat this odds in the 2023/24 season and had such a good run towards winning the trophy in a spectacular way. They also endured a good run in other leagues but, were destroyed by Atalanta in the Europa.

This season’s Bundesliga title is obviously won to Bayern Munich, nobody is beating this team to the trophy.
