Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[HyperCodexV]

Michael Olise's nonchalant macho guy act in interviews is just refreshing to watch. I had to go watch a replay of his post match interview after Bayern smashed 5 goals past Bodo/Glimt becuase i was seeing so many video clips by some football influencers complaining that the guy needs to be more professional and talk to journalists, because post match interviews are part of modern football and all players need to learn how to talk to the journalists and express the outcome of the game for the fans, they said he can't just stand and give short or one-word replies as answers after bagging 2 goals. But I don't blame the guy because football media is always trying to twist words for clicks and views and him being nonchalant with is response always shuts down that drama before it begins. His job is to perform on the pitch not to be a public speaker and if he delivers well enough on the pitch, I personally don't have a problem with his speaking style.

I think Bayern Munych specifically chose to play a match in the Bundesliga, giving space to the reserves so as not to tire the starters.
Which then turned out well since in the Champions League Bayern Munich found a crushing victory against their opponents, thus taking home the first three fundamental points for the title race.

Bayern Munich and PSG use the same routine, always using second team to play league games. If the game turns out to be much hard for the second team to win, by the second half the coach will bring in the first team players. For example, in PSG the coach doesn't bother starting Dembele, he has been a reserve for the team in the Champions League.

Managers know how to protect their players from injury and fatigue when they can win the league easily without stressing the first team players. What helps a club maintain form is how well the manager rotates his players to enable them to perform well.

This strategy does not always work, as they seem to have failed recently. PSG has not yet tasted victory and Bayern Munich has already failed in its winning streak. I think the first eleven should be allowed to play first and when the team is sure of victory, the main players should be taken out and the second eleven should be put on the field. Or they can choose the eleven according to the ability of the opposing team in the league.

Injuries and fatigue of the players are the biggest obstacles to fighting the whole season. To get rid of this problem, coaches adopt different strategies, some succeed and some fail. But how reasonable is it to rest the players from the beginning of the season? You can see the results of PSG and Bayern Munich also got the same result in the last match of the league. Kompany may repeat that mistake in the upcoming match. He will enter the field with the first eleven from the beginning of the match.

There is usually one way those players answer in interviews and that is all about using clichés. "we need to be more compact, we need to use our chances better, we need to make less mistakes, we can always improve, we are looking from match to match, ...". There is also this rare species that gives serious, truthful interviews, lets emotions take over when it can just not be held back, fully honesty.

Olise is a new kind of guy here.

Journalist: "Lead us through it"
Olise: "Through what? Goal?"
Journalist: "Yes"
Olise: "Pass, shot, goal."

What they’re doing is just rotation, coaches have to utilise every player at their disposal to give maximum performance for the team, Bayern and PSG are almost in the same situation. They have good players throughout the squad and the other teams in their respective leagues are just not on their level, there’s a high potential that they’ll be able to retain their titles.

That’s why they’re not very bothered right now at the beginning of the season. They can lose games now and still win the league tomorrow.

Well, it finally happened. Eugen Polanski is no longer the manager of Borussia Mönchengladbach. After the disastrous 5–0 defeat in Freiburg, Polanski decided to step down and leave his position at Gladbach. Horst Steffen, Christian Eichner and Dietmar Kühbauer are all being mentioned as possible replacements. I’m really curious to see who will take over at Gladbach now and whether things will actually get any better. Right now, Mönchengladbach are sitting dead last in the table.

I’ve now lost my bets on Kicktipp. I bet that Cologne would be the first team to sack their manager 

[Altryist]

 Elversberg has been playing very well so far, securing two wins in their two Bundesliga matches. Their opponents were Bayer and Borussia Mönchengladbach, and they managed to score three goals against Bayer and four away against Borussia Mönchengladbach. That is why I believe they are capable of scoring against Bayern’s defense, which is far from perfect. And I think Bayern should beat them today, with a brief break in the Champions League schedule, the team can focus entirely on Bundesliga matches without needing to rotate the squad. And since Elversberg concedes at least two goals per game, I expect Bayern to score two or more goals today as well.

Their Bundesliga results have fallen short of expectations, prior to the season, they had consistently achieved good results, going nine friendly matches without a single lose. Somehow they seemed to change when the league match started, starting with 3 – 0 loss to Leipzig & leading up to the most recent match against Freiburg.

You said that there are three candidates to replace Eugen Polanski. In your opinion, who among them is actually the best fit to be the manager?

I think this will be a match where Bayern Munich scores a lot of goals. I don’t know how Elversberg will play, but they have started the league season very well. If they keep this up, staying in the league this year won't be a matter of luck. If they manage to take a point from Bayern Munich tonight, they will be very fortunate, and it might well be one of the most important points of their season because taking points off Bayern Munich is something akin to a miracle. Schalke pulled off that miracle last week, but Bayern Munich had left key players on the bench in that match. This week, Bayern Munich will be out for the three points and will field their best players. It will be very difficult for Elversberg to get a result.

Of course, Elversberg is nearly already champion so they need those 3 points to win both the Bundesliga and the CL after just two games.
Don't be afraid, Bayern is trash since they tied with Schalke, Bodo games was fake anyhow so go for it

Red card for Bayern after 11 minutes, Upamecano makes an Upamecano (coming too late, amateurish judgment), brings Elversberg's striker down as last man. Yes I know that Upamecano is on the list for the ballon D'or, but even people from the creators of that preliminary list can be alcoholics.

Among the matches starting in a few hours, Leipzig will be looking to bounce back from their defeat against Como, especially after suffering a heavy loss in the Champions League. Leipzig is certainly the favorite in this match. Although HSV may not appear to be the favorite, we know that anything can happen early in the season, the league has only just begun, and players are still settling in.

 As for the other match, I expect an easy and comfortable victory for Bayern Munich.

Interesting points. I can add the following: The odds for BTTS No are 2.50 (effectively, this outcome is equivalent to Bayern keeping a clean sheet, since we all expect them to score). To get a comparable odds in the handicap market, you need to bet on Bayern -3.5 (2.62). If we're looking at the totals market, then Total Over 5.5 (2.58). For some reason, BTTS No seems like the most realistic option to me. But I’m unlikely to keep placing bets today, since yesterday’s outcomes were unsuccessful.

I personally believe that Hamburger SV will be crushed by RB Leipzig in this upcoming match. And this match will be a great opportunity for Leipzig to bounce back. In their most recent head-to-head matchup RB Leipzig managed to defeat Hamburger SV by a close margin goal even though the game was played at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg. And that only strengthens my conviction that RB Leipzig will completely dominate this match. They certainly don’t want to get off to a rough start this season so they’ll fight hard to earn all three points. And I’m confident they’ll win this match against Hamburger SV by giving it their all. On the other hand HSV’s offense looks terrible considering that they haven’t scored a single goal so far this season, where they seem to be in very poor form. And their offense line looks highly unreliable. As for Bayern Munich I’m convinced that they simply cannot be beaten by a lower-tier team like Elversberg. Bayern Munich is a team with a winning mentality boasting many players of exceptional quality compared to other teams in the Bundesliga. And their remarkable dominance in the Bundesliga over the past few seasons has proven that they are a team that’s very difficult to match.

Kompany has once again decided to rotate the squad for a Bundesliga match, just as he did against Schalke, perhaps with minor adjustments. Frankly, I find this strange, given that Bayern will have time to rest after the Champions League, so Kompany could have fielded his strongest lineup. Especially considering that Elversberg played quite well against Bayer and Mönchengladbach.

I prefer to call him Dayotchanculle, since he's French the silent "cul" at the end seems more appropriate, and since he's a center....back, it does fit perfectly.
Seriously, I can't pronounce that without thinking of  Pigalle 

Either way 1-0 and I don't see the magic wand or the incantation that changes how the game will play till the end.

Leipzig, which had suffered heavy defeats against Werder and Como in its last two matches, showed no mercy to Hamburg a team that had yet to score a goal and extended their goal drought into the following week. Leipzig’s biggest advantage in this match was its strong home performance, and the team made up for its poor results in previous matches in the eyes of its fans. Leipzig’s early goal made the match much easier for them. As a result, Leipzig made up for its last two losses in this match.

Elversberg 1 Vs Bayern Munich 2 FT
Elversberg is gradually becoming a formidable team in the Bundesliga, they almost held the champions to a draw in their first between both teams this season. Normally, Bayern Munich were supposed to load this team but so far they have refused to bow in the league despite just coming into the top division. I think they are the only relegation team that's doing well in the league. They beat Bayern Leverkusen in their opening match, beat Borussia M'gladbach from behind in their second match to record 2/2, I'm sure if it were not against Bayern Munich today, they would have probably won. This team is really doing well and they are not acting like a team that just got promoted into the lead.

I expected the match to be that easy for Leipzig to win because their opponents were not strong. Again, it was Leipzig home ground, and they are always stronger in their home games. Leipzig hardly lose games on their own ground. Anyhow, most of the games they lose are usually away games.despite expecting the game to be easy for Leipzig, I didn’t expect them to score up to five goals in today’s match. It seems they took all the anger from losing two matches and used it against Hamburger.but Hamburger also tried but they were just not lucky enough to score in this match because they created some good chances. It seemed like they had almost four shots on target while Leipzig had around six, and Leipzig were able to convert their chances into goals.

This team is really doing well and they are not acting like a team that just got promoted into the lead.

But Bayern took full control of the match when all the top players were brought into the match in the second half. Bayern is significantly weaker if they don't field their best eleven players and I think that is somehow concerning. The bench should have more impact than they currently do. Kompany has no choice in those second halves when he rotates but to bring all the best players into the match or otherwise they are likely to lose crucial points in the early season. It was a one way match like it was against Schalke, but those bench players can't score those goals as it seems.

Elversberg is winning the hearts I think, it's fun to watch a team like them winning against established teams and making it hard for Bayern to win what was supposed an easy match for them.

so far this season Hamburger have been performing very poorly. they have suffered three defeats in three matches, failing to score a single goal while conceding 12. if the team doesn't start picking up points, they could soon face serious trouble and become a prime candidate for relegation. meanwhile, Leipzig is continuing the trend of performing well in the Bundesliga but poorly in the Champions League. given their tough opponents in this season's competition, there is a real possibility they might fail to reach the knockout stage.

Michael Olise's nonchalant macho guy act in interviews is just refreshing to watch.

This should be one favorite thing I like about Michael Olise. Many misunderstand his attitude as nonchalant but he honestly does not care about a lot of things, and that's his character. Many are trying to force the narrative that he is a lazy player and acts unprofessional in some cases but you can't possibly tell anyone how to act right?

His performance on the pitch is top notch and that should be the focus, its obvious that he early does not like interviews but his performance will always attract one, which explains his lack of interest during post match interviews.
