Leverkusen's next game against Koln is very much important for them because after this game they will face Roma in Europa League and surely if they won the game against Koln they have a better atmosphere in their team and have better luck against Roma while the match against Koln can't be hard for Leverkusen also in the previous game they had Leverkusen won the game with 2-1 result.

Anyways, also Bayer Leverkusen will be playing at home, so possibility they are won't lose any points because actually they also need three points to stay away from Wolfsburg. Also in head to head Leverkusen have three winning records, in their last five matches which means they are better rather than Köln. Meanwhile, although Mainz 05 will be favorite but maybe they are will have a little trouble on getting three points, because Schalke 04 also want to get out of the relegation zone so I don't think they're going to give three points easily today.

Of course, it is all thanks to Xabi Alonso's foresight that Leverkusen is a very difficult team to beat at the moment. Some important notes in every match they have played, of course, there will always be improvements little by little and that leads to the positive trend that Leverkusen is getting. Regarding the Mainz vs Schalke match, this is a match that is quite difficult to predict and as most people know for sure Mainz will be favored to win, but I really think with you that Schalke can reverse that advantage through an unexpected surprise. Considering that Schalke is very strong in defense, it is likely that a draw will be the closest to the final result.

The chances of Schalke to win Mainz is very small, in the two previous game of Mainz they won in their match,  they were able to realise 3 goals in this two game. One of the game they played was against Bayern Munich and they defeated Bayern Munich with three goal. It won't be easy for Schalke to beat Mainz to gain a full point.

Leverkusen's performance in the last weeks was not bad. Köln is not a very strong team either, I think there is no reason why Leverkusen should not get 3 points from this match.
I think they can finish the league in 6th place. There is not much chance of going to the top anyway, the difference in points between them and the other teams is not small. There are not enough weeks left, we have reached the end of the league

No matter how well the rest of the teams perform in the Bundesliga, I think they will end up losing to Dortmund and Bayern Munich. But the rest of the teams can develop their skills in every match. I am extremely confident that Bayern Munich will win the Bundesliga title.

Thats true and i agree on that , since Alonso toke over as a coach in Leverkusen they have made huge steps forward and playing well and good.
The beginning was a bit bumpy but the managed to get out this in a very positiv way and playing.
There can be a surprise today from Schalke and you never know but it will be hard to win in Mainz and the chance to get some points there is little.

Bayer Leverkusen and Mainz are the two favorite teams in the two matches being played today, so it makes sense if you really choose Bayer Leverkusen and Mainz to bet on. But I personally might try against the favorite team, especially about Schalke, because I think Schalke can still hold Mainz to a draw in this match.

Indeed, Mainz is playing at home and also, Mainz is in a decidedly better position compared to Schalke in the Bundesliga standings. But even so, I feel Schalke at this moment is still trying to get out of the relegation zone and in fact, in their first match of the season or in their first meeting this season Schalke was able to beat Mainz. Therefore, I think Schalke still has a chance to get 1 point in this match. But for Bayer Leverkusen, I personally still believe that Bayer Leverkusen will win because of its continuous improvement, I am very impressed with Bayer Leverkusen.

Leverkusen is in a really good form since Alonso came to the bench and it should be an easy win at home for them. Im also expecting lots of goals between these two teams today. Also we might see a surprise today and see Schalke win today against Mainz. They need points badly and i think they might snatch them.

@Juggy777 you're absolutely right with your idea of Borussia Dortmund taking one game at a time but looking at the Dortmund players current performance I don't think they're motivated enough to put up a great fight against Bayern Munich in the race to win the Bundesliga title.
Bayern Munich though haven't been playing their best football and as result has dropped massive points this season but one can still sense the hunger to retain the league title from their players and that's the only thing their title chasing opponents lacks. I would love to see Borussia Dortmund defile all odds to win the league t

For the todays games , its first time for a long time that 2 games are on Friday but thats because of Leverkuse has the match relocated.
Between the match Leverkusen vs Cologne normaly Leverkusen should be winning this game at home.
About the game Mainz vs Schalke also the hometeam should be win but Schalke need the points and it can be an interesting game.
My bets are placed for a win on Leverkusen and Mainz.

Dortmund had opportunity to be at the top before now but they couldn't try the best to get more points to create a huge gap between them and Bayern Munich, and here is Bayern Munich top of the league. Bayern Munich are in the worst state performance,  this is the Time can take the league from Bayer Munich but it looks as if Dortmund is also struggling,  for Bayern Munich to be in the first position they have chances of winning Bundesliga because no strong competitor to take it up.

Since Bayern Munich and Dortmund have been rivals from the start and they dominate the top of the standings, it's hard not to be interested in both of them. Even though Leverkusen is performing well with consecutive victories, they still can't beat the intense competition between Dortmund and Bayern Munich. Plus, Dortmund is only one point behind, so who wouldn't be excited to see that?
The race for the league title will be very exciting to watch.

@Cryptmuster I believe that Dortmund should take one game at a time and focus on delivering their best performance because they yet have a big chance to spoil Bayern’s hopes of winning the league title. However Bayern too won’t easily surrender their lead and thus my gut feeling says that the title will be decided on the final match day due to the close competition between these two clubs.

I a bit hard to predict and say which team is going to win this game but we know Schalke is a team in the danger zone of the table and they didn't achieve good results during this season but Schalke needs the full points from this game, also in the last five games Schalke had they lost three games and won two games in the other hand Mainz got a better place in the league and they won two games and lost only one game, I think Schalke can beat Mainz tonight.

Ahead of the semifinal match of the Europa League, Leverkusen will play the match against Koln. this match, became a game that was quite important for Xabi Alonso's squad to stay on the right track. apart from maintaining their ranking on the standings, Leverkusen must wipe out the remaining 4 matches. that way, they have the probability to finish in the top 4 of the Bundesliga. on condition, the team that is above their ranking slips in the rest of the match. in this match, Leverkusen is superior to the opposing team. Naturally, Cologne is not a tough team to overthrow. after all this fight will be held at BayArena, Leverkusen headquarters. 3 points, is the result they must get.

Instead, as you said. Koln's position is in a safe zone even if they fall in this match. but what is certain, Steffen Baumgart does not want his team to be overthrown easily by the hosts. So, like it or not they will put up a fight. at least, 1 point was the ideal result for them. by the way, referring to the available odds. Leverkusen have odds @1.66, for a draw @3.65 and Koln odds @4.95. So, will this match end with a score of 1-2 like in the first meeting this season. if yes, then the betting option for both teams to score goals is more ideal with odds @1.75. but my estimation, this fight will not produce many goals. so ideally, bet on Leverkusen.

Today, in the German league, Bayer Leverkusen - Köln and Mainz 05 - Schalke 04 matches will be played. Bayer Leverkusen are struggling to participate in the European Conference League this season. In order to achieve this, they need to finish the league in the 6th place. They will play semi -final matches in the European Cup, but they do not have a good ranking in the league. Nevertheless, we should say that they have not lost their last 9 matches in the league. I think they are the favorite of this match. Mainz 05 are struggling to participate in the European Conference League like Bayer Leverkusen this season. In recent weeks, they have also made a good statistics. I see them as a favorite against Schalke 04.

Playing at the BayArena can indeed provide better motivation for Bayer Leverkusen, but Bayer Leverkusen still seems a little difficult to get a top five place in the standings because Bayer Leverkusen is six points behind RB Leipzig which in the remaining matches for this season will also try to appear more good for the sake of achieving a better ranking because RB Leipzig is very close to the top four and also not far behind Freiburg in the current standings.

Actually, yes, one point does not solve anything, since this is a very shaky advantage and everything can change in any round. Before the loss to Bayern, Dortmund looked very cool in the Bundesliga, but perhaps this defeat undermined their confidence in their strength, followed by a defeat in the cup and several draws in the Bundesliga. But if we evaluate the forms of the teams, then it seems to me that Dortmund looks better now, so they still have a chance.

The four matches that Schalke has to go through are difficult matches because they are facing teams who are all still aiming for victory, so when facing Schalke it will be a target for these teams to get 3 points.
Mainz still has a chance to get to the European zone if they can get a win in the rest of the game because the point difference is not far from Leverkusen, as well as Bayern Munich who will be against Schalke in week 32 who really need a win because the position as the leader of the standings is not safe and very possible determined until the end of the season, with Frankfurt maybe it will be a little more easier for Schalke to be able to get points because this opponent is a little difficult to get to the European zone considering that the competition is very tight and the many point differences will make it difficult for Frankfurt, and the last game against Leipzig will be more difficult because it will be an away game and also Leipzig, if they haven't confirmed playing in the champions league, will probably play very hard to get that spot.
Schalke is not capable enough to compete in the top division so it is likely to go back down but maybe Schalke will not give up so easily because so the matches at the end of the season will be very interesting to look forward to.
