Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread

[karabiber]

Bayern and Dortmund are tied on points, and this will be a crucial match in the race for the championship. Ahead of the match, Bayern head coach Kompany was discharged from the hospital. However, it remains unclear whether Kompany will be on the sidelines. Luis Diaz, who is injured, will not be able to play for Bayern. Dortmund, on the other hand, has looked much more resilient on defense this season. Still, Bayern is the favorite to win at home. However, given Dortmund’s defensive performance, I expect a low scoring victory for Bayern.

Yeah Dortmunds biggest issue so far is scoring goals! 12 goals in 7 matches while not even meeting strong teams is a bit alarming. That being said having only conceded 4 goals also looks better than it actually is because they didn’t face strong offensive teams yet. This is game this weekend will show where they are actually standing and if they are able to compete or just, as every year, fight to be the best of the rest. We will find out real soon if this will be yet another boring Bundesliga season or if we can have a hint of a excitement this year.

To me I have come to understand one thing about this Bayern Munich team, I really think with or without the coach on the sidelines, the fact is they've got the players that are well experience and can deliver any game with or without the coach instructions, so I don't really fear for that, and the last time I checked the head to head of both teams, I think Bayern Munich was the leading team on that, and talking about goals, I think any match they both face themselves they always produce as much goals as possible, so I won't really bet on winning this time, I'd rather bet on goals.

I wouldn't consider the match between Bayern and Dortmund boring; it wouldn't be. If I'm not mistaken, those two clubs are the highest rated clubs in Bundesliga, and at their worst, they should be very entertaining still. As it stands now, Bayern would want to prove a point despite their key players' injuries, while Dortmund with healthier players would want to showoff as well. Let's see what happens tonight, but still, the match being played at Allianz Arena is another advantage to Bayern. As we know, Bayern guards their home seriously. They only conceded once at home throughout last season and none this season yet.

You're not talking about Dortmund winning the match? Well, I would understand with the current Bayern Munich form but that should not be a total conclusion just yet. My prediction for this game should be a GG and it could be possible that the game ends in a draw, because Bayern Munich won their last head to head game so I don't see that it would be easy for them to win Dortmund again.

The winner between both teams would be 3 points clear from 2nd position, its an important match that both parties would not take lightly.

Both teams have 17 points and currently occupy the top two spots in the league. However, scoring goals has not come as easily for Dortmund as it has for Bayern Munich; Dortmund has managed only 12 goals in 7 matches, whereas Bayern Munich has posted an incredible scores of 25 goals in the same 7 matches. Borussia Dortmund faces a very difficult task, as they are set to play a challenging away match. Against Bayern Munich, their best approach will be to maintain a solid defense and try to come away with at least one point.

This match always reserves some very pleasant surprises, and it seems to me that both teams want to win, but of course, there are these two teams that are the best and can really do well, i feel that Bayern Munich will win the match, they certainly have more chances of winning, this is because they also play at home.

I really felt petty on Kompany this past few days, but even if he has been discharged from hospital I don't think he would coach this match or even play any assisting role on the game because he needs rest first before he could fully returned to his coaching, although this might also affect the club negatively because there isn't how any temporary coach would play the role the way he usually coach Bayern Munich. There main goalkeeper Manuel Neuer may also not going to play because of injury so actually is already a disadvantaged to Bayern Munich from those people but there is still hope from the players they have to win Borussia Dortmund.

After the departure of the best attackers, Dortmund lost a bit of strength in attack, but in any case they are fighting against Bayern Munich, even if the championship has just started, this weekend they will have to demonstrate that they know how to move forward and fight for every ball and also score a little more if they want to challenge Bayern Munich in the fight for first place.

I thought Kompany would be with the team today, since he has already been discharged from the hospital. I also think Neuer's absence isn't a major concern, as Urbig will gradually get more and more playing time, and eventually I believe he could become their first goalkeeper. As for Kompany potentially being absent, I don't think that's a big problem either, because Bayern have won all their matches without him. And even if he isn't there in person, I think he can still make tactical adjustments remotely if necessary. I think Bayern will beat Borussia Dortmund today.

Even though both teams have 5 wins and 2 draws, the team against whom they performed it are quite different. Bayern has already defeated 3 out of top 5 except itself so we can say they are performing good against the top team as well. While Dortmund, all the team they have defeated are 10th or below that that, it means they have won only against the weak teams. Goal difference and goal conceded are where Bayern is better than Dortmund as well.
Stats shows Bayern is better than Dortmund in every aspects. Further it is the home ground for Bayern so I don't see any good chances for Dortmund.

If this match was not against Borussia Dortmund I wouldn't have mind the absence of Neuer but unfortunately this is Borussia Dortmund who are desperate to top the league, so actually anything with the potential of reducing Bayern Munich form a little is going to be advantage for Borussia Dortmund, there would always be difference between Neuer and Jonas Urbig there second goalkeeper. Sometimes even after someone is discharged from hospital doesn't mean everything is completely okay to resume their activities. Perhaps like you said let's hope Bayern Munich wins this match like those other ones.

Their match is interesting because both teams are currently level on points, even though the goal difference is different. I also think this match will be won by the home team if Munich really gives their all. Dortmund currently has the ability to put up a fight, so Munich will have to be more cautious in this match. However, if Munich loses at home today, I think it will be a more interesting surprise than many people expect.

I agree that having Neuer in goal inspires a little more confidence. On the other hand, if you look at the matches Neuer has played, Bayern haven't conceded any fewer goals than they have with their backup goalkeeper. And Bayern's defence has been far from ideal this season. Borussia Dortmund's attack has been performing quite well, and they only occasionally fail to score. So I think both teams will score, but I don't believe Dortmund are capable of beating a Bayern side like this.

Both teams might score, but I don’t think Dortmund will win. In my opinion, it’s Bayern Munich that will come out on top. With their high-quality squad, Bayern Munich is a much better team than Dortmund. There are about 3 hours left until kickoff, and I’m eagerly awaiting the match.

That's not surprising, in fact that's how every team is supposed to play. The players have been playing together and training together for a while now. So basically they should already understand each other on the field with or without the presence of the coach. Normally, the presence of the coach has a little impact on the game because the main job is done before the match. For a very long time now, Bayern Munich is a beast in the German league and no team stand against them and succeed. Dortmund is a team that ought to have improved if they prioritised improvements but it is obvious they prioritised business and profit over improving their team.

Not sure Bayern Munich will win by a small goal difference, because I see a big handicap, with odds of at least @2,00. If Bayern Munich win, I think they will win by 2 goals difference, whether it ends up being Bayern Munich 3 - 1 Borussia Dortmund or Bayern Munich 4 - 2 Borussia Dortmund. 1 thing is certain for this match, that's a BTTS, as both sides have an attacking style, there's no doubt about it.

However, given Dortmund’s defensive performance, I expect a low scoring victory for Bayern.

Let's see what is going to happen today, as Kompany may not be with his team. However, even without Kompany, I believe these players know what to do, as long as he is able to select the players who will play today. That is the most important thing, along with the kind of instructions he gives them ahead of the match between Bayern Munich and Dortmund.If he has done this, I think we should expect a good result from them. In fact, I believe players should be able to carry out their coach's instructions perfectly, even when he is not by their side on the pitch, as long as they have been playing together for a while. So, Kompany  absence from the pitch should not be a problem for Bayern Munich's players.However, what I have to say is that this match may not be that easy for Bayern Munich to win because Dortmund are performing well. Nevertheless, Dortmund are my favourite team in this match.

Dortmund is a team that ought to have improved if they prioritised improvements but it is obvious they prioritised business and profit over improving their team.

That's how successful the team is in the Bundesliga they've built their mentality on success so they'll individual work towards that goal when the coach is not on the stands to correct them when they make errors infact that should even motivate to win the match and prove to the coach that they understand the goal.

 Moreover the assistant coach would be available so the head coaches absence shouldn't be a barrier to winning the game. But they'll still have to be careful with Dortmund, they might not be the best team in the league but they're capable of being threatening on the pitch.

It remain unclear whether Kompany will be in charge for the game against Dortmund. He still some time away to recover from injury. Bayern Munich has played two Champions League matches without a win and their next Champions League opponent is Atletico Madrid. Bayern Munich may rest some of their key players due to the Champions League match, but I don’t think they can rest them, since they failed to rest them in their last game against weak side.

Dortmund always becomes a tough opponent for Bayern Munich. I’m not afraid of Dortmund against Bayern Munich since their performance is not that good this season. This is an opportunity for Bayern Munich to increase the points differential. Dortmund was far away from Bayern Munich with points difference, but they couldn’t maintain the energy they had in the first place. I will bet on Bayern Munich to win without a doubt.
