Dortmund's condition in the league could have been much better than this actually. But they just lost so many matches so far otherwise they have only 2 draws.

They could have even been quite ahead of Bayern Munich in the standings. But things are still going fine for Dortmund now. Of course it wasn't good for them to lose to Bayern Munich recently but their performance was really bad at defending. There was no way they were going to get any point in that match. Dortmund will still hope for Bayern Munich to make a mistake at some point. Bayern Munich are focused on the Champions League also. If they even get bad results then maybe it can affect them in a bad way mentally.

After Dortmund lost the game against Chelsea and lost the Champions League, now Bayern Mucni as the first team on the table lost the game against another team in the premier league these two teams are not in the same situation and both are just racing the or Bundesliga title ut since Bayern Munich had a bad day against Manchester City in champions leag which can have a negative effect on them I see more chance for Dortmund in this season.

I think even though this is a pretty heavy defeat, it doesn't mean it's over for Bayern.
Even though it will definitely be difficult for Leg 2 with a margin of 3 goals there but still the chance is still there so for now it would be very funny if they gave up halfway, at least even if they couldn't in the end they still had to try until the end.

This season the competition in the top zone in the Bundesliga standings at this moment is not only about Bayern Munich and Dortmund, but there are still five other teams who are also still competing to be able to finish in a better position. Union Berlin, Leipzig, Freiburg, Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt and maybe also Mainz because their point gap still allows them to move up or into the top six.

Therefore, any team that cannot be consistent will have a very high chance of being overtaken. Maybe it was because at the start of the season Bayern Munich couldn't dominate properly, so finally the other teams were able to maximize the situation to get tickets to the European zone next season.

Regarding the struggle for the top positions in the first and second standings, Bayern Munich and Dortmund are still on the right track. I think the only challenger who has the chance to catch Dortmund is Union Berlin, while Leipzig, Freiburg and Leverkusen are chasing each other to secure the top five positions in the standings. The remaining few matches will determine whether they finish in the standings and how far their consistency gives the best results in the remaining matches.

What's interesting is the competition between Bayern Munich and Dortmund, which are currently only two points apart, so the competition for the Bundesliga title will be even tougher with the remaining matches ahead, so that the two teams must play more consistently in the remaining matches.

Maybe, but for sure, at the end of the season the games will get tougher and we will see how these teams do the rest of the job. also, considering the rankings of Leipzig and freiburg which occupy 4th and 5th place. plus, with 7 games remaining until the season ends. that means, the three teams we mentioned have the potential to rank 3rd. after all, they still have tough matches. so, changes in the leaderboard are subject to change at any time. yes, it depends on how each team plays its matches.

but IMO, I suspect that Union Berlin is going to have a bad run of games. I mean, Union Belin will slip up in some of their bouts. that way, the team that is below them has the potential to overtake the ranking occupied by Union Berlin. in fact, I have an interest in Leverkusen. squad team made by Xabi Alonso, has the potential to occupy the 4th position. but with one condition, they must win all the remaining matches. even then it's not easy, because they still have tough matches like meeting with Liepzig and Union Berlin.

Well, at least this season the Bundesliga offers something different. not impossible, if there is a change at the top of the standings. yeah, we don't know. So, it's interesting for us to follow until this season ends.

We will not know who will have the third place, we do not know who will get the first place neither. Bundesliga is very tight right now and the race until the very end is going to be tough as well, we just need to wait and see week in and week out.

Bayern is the likely candidate to win the title, but we have seen them drop points when least expected before, there is no reason why they won't do that, plus they have UCL game to play as well which means that they may shift their focus on the title instead, and that could be different situation. I hope that we get to see the best teams to try and win, but that doesn't mean that we will not be seeing Bayern playing a bit worse and maybe Dortmund getting it, and anything below could happen.

Union Berlin is having a great season so far in the league in Germany. But they are also still active in the Europa League, and they have very good opportunities to reach the final. German football is back on the map thankfully. And Bayern Munich is also very vulnerable this season. Lots of draws and defeats. If Borussia Dortmund has a chance to become champions, it is definitely this season. But Bayern is still the leader and of course also the big favorite for the title, but the lead has shrunk enormously. This week there is the match between the numbers 18 and 17 on the list, Schalke 04 and Herta Berlin. The ideal opportunity for Schalke to come from last place with a win.

Union Berlin has indeed shown very good progress this season, although I'm still not sure that Union Berlin will win the Bundesliga because there are still two other big teams, such as Bayern Munich and Dortmund, who are still able to put up a better fight. Likewise in other competitions such as the European League which still makes me not sure that Union Berlin will win because there are many other teams that are stronger, even though there are still opportunities for Union Berlin in the two major competitions this season.

I will prefer to remove freiburg from the list and try to add leverkusen to the list why? the inconsistency of freiburg has been making many people distrust the club to get a spot in UCL. Union berlin and leipzig are going back again on the right track while freiburg is still struggling with its performance. Your focus must be on the leverkusen right now.

I agree with you partially. If i had to pick the 4 teams of the Bundelsiga that will qualify for the Champions League next season then those teams would be Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, RB Leizpig and Bayer Leverkusen, because those 4 teams are simply having the strongest squads of the league. I am not so sure though, if Union Berlin can really finish the league on of the top 4 ranks. Just as Freiburg, they are playing way above their expectations in this season so far, but in the last few weeks it was also obvious that they are getting tired now. Both Union and Freiburg have lost their matches on the weekend and if Leverkusen can keep it's momentum, then that 8 point lead of Union does not mean that much, because there are still 21 points to be earned.

In October, Bayer Leverkusen were in relegation zone and no one were thinking they could be at this spot after few months under dynamic leadership of Alonso which is doing amazing job and now having sights on Champions League spot which is looking possible with their current performance and three teams which are struggling badly in last few matches specially Freiburg, Leipzig and Union Berlin are not good as they needed to be at this point if we have same level of performance then surely things could be interested in last few weeks because now Leverkusen having easy fixtures which can help them for having better spot in Bundesliga and final spot into Europa Cup as well.

Right now difficult to predict who is going to follow Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund for top four because all are having troubling time and Bayer Leverkusen and Alonso can take good advantage of this all which will help them for having amazing end of this season.

Maybe to take Freiburg out of the limelight right now is natural for their inconsistency, but the next matches Leipzig and Leverkusen have quite tough opponents coming up, I don't think we can decide on this now because we don't know what the dynamics and results will be. the next match, I'm not sure I have to include Leverkusen in the team that will qualify for the Champions League because Leverkusen in the next few matches will face Lepzig and Union Berlin, of course this is quite tough, even though in five Leverkusen matches they collected full points from each match, I think Union Berlin will not throw away its sweat just like that.

Leipzig is like a plastic that deforms when heated by fire, and that is exactly how they react to Leverkusen matches. However, they have improved this season, and I hope they continue to do so. If not, Leverkusen winning their next match will earn them 3 points, putting them above Freiburg even though they share the same points.

This point gap between other teams from fourth place downward is too tiny, and making predictions with it can only result in you losing money on money. To be on the safe side, I will only bet on Bayern and Dortmund matches against other teams, and they will be a double chance at most.

It's been so long since we've seen a new face in the standings competition and Union Berlin can even reach 3rd place in the current standings. They appeared convincingly and got good results in every match. Talking about their work in the European league, maybe it will be a stepping stone towards the champions league next season or if not, they can continue to stay in the top 4 at this time so they can advance to the champions league via the domestic league route.

Bayern Munich is still very strong despite experiencing a bad trend earlier this year and Dortmund is still not enough to stop Bayern Munich at the top of the standings. The Schalke vs Hertha berlin match will open the bundesliga this week and I think Schalke's chances of winning are quite big considering they have the support of fans at home and they have to get this win because they previously lost to Hoffenheim.

I think the third place will most probably be Union Berlin's despite that loss against Dortmund. Because Leipzig and Freiburg both have been very inconsistent teams for many weeks. Therefore I think the competition for the fourth position will go on between Leipzig and Freiburg until the final moments of the season. It isn't easy to be confident about any side here about it too.

For now I'm feeling closer to Leipzig because of their squad quality. Besides they already won a similar competition against Freiburg in the previous season.

Yeah I agree, because no only Leipzig and Freiburg are inconsistent Union Berlin remaining fixtures are also relatively easy then these teams which are going to give good advantage for staying at third spot with for the four the spot we will have not easy task if these two teams will be stayed at this level then surely we can expect Leverkusen will steal the show because their performance is extraordinary in last few weeks and after beating Bayern Munich their confidence level is also at the top of the game which will help them for having better end of this season.

Leipzig was really amazing in early half of this season but now recently they are having troubling time which is creating problems for them and their spot for the top four with Freiburg is surely losing their magic and most chances have chance for the fifth or sixth spot.

But their points are still close enough that they still have a chance to finish in the top four, I personally don't care about the poor performance in recent matches. Because in the following matches, I'm sure they will also experience difficult times so they still have the chance to lose and win at the same time.

If that happens then of course, they will overtake each other for the rest of the season and I'm sure they still can't be sure of finishing in the top four, except for Bayern Munich and Dortmund.

In the end it was indeed a great match and of course even if Freiburg lost this game but they also performed well it's just that Bayern's conditions were much better than those they lost and Bayern can take revenge for their previous meeting in the DFB.

Talking about the championship, I think Bayern will win the title regardless of how Dortmund is performing now. For Union, they are already out of line and they can only maintain the top 4 positions because their rivals Leipzig and Freiburg are almost close, not even impossible with Leverkusen's current conditions, they can also compete in that position.

Actually, Bayern Munich is not at 100% because of their injuries and so Freiburg had a slight advantage because Bayern Munich doesn't have complete players for them but they still manage to win their Bundesliga play-offs, Right now Dortmund won against Union Berlin a close game for them, Bayern winning a close game against Freiburg, Mainz, and Werder got a draw, Koln have won against Augsburg, Leverkusen got a win over Frankfurt, and Leipzig won over Hertha, Monchengladbach against Wolfsburg, Stuttgart against Bochum, and lastly Hoffenheim against Shalke,

It seems that two champions league spots are available and three teams will be competing for them those teams are union berlin, leipzig and freiburg in the next round leipzig and union berlin have easier games than freiburg since they will both play at home and they are huge favourites so i don't think we will see a change in the standings yet.

We have 2 games today and it is now the quarter-finals leg 1 of 2 Benfica VS Inter, and Manchester City VS Bayern Munich, I think both matches will be great for me Bayern Munich really is doing great while Benfica and Inter will be a great fight as well but for me this big fight I think Benfica could win this game they surely got green and doesn't have injuries at the moment while Bayern Munich, also got their difficult time with Bayern Munich as well,

I think that Dortmund is the most consistent team of all the Bundesliga in the last 15 games they have only 1 draw against Schalke away and one lost against Bayern Munchen also away from home and 13 victories,no other team in the Bundesliga is doing this great so Dortmund is really a strong contender this time.

I think that it will be difficult for Bayern Munchen to qualify against Manchester City but anything can happen,if Manchester City did not have Haaland in their team then most probably Bayern would win and qualify but the fact that Manchester City,a really strong team even without Haaland can be really dangerous when they also have Haaland on their side and this encounter which will see the first leg tonight cannot be decided until the return leg even if Bayern wins tonight.

Even I am also feeling Borussia Dortmund can give entertaining end of this season but after watching remaining matches of both teams things looking not easy for them both are going to have same level matches with Bayern Munich is having only one game at home against Leipzig which can create something but with mostly it's all about luck and consistency with this all most chances Bayern Munich will be having another championship into their pocket with their game against Manchester City is tricky for their double chances if they are able to beat them surely this could be best and with this most chances they will end in this season with the double.

But, this year after the international break we have amazing stuff from the Borussia Dortmund which bring themselves into limelight for the title race and things can go either way because on match-day any shocking result can bring title race into interesting way with both are having level in quality.

Union Berlin still hold a big advantage in top four despite the loss against Dortmund. Actually they wouldn't have lost that match either if they were able to defend their opponent better. But their defending was quite weak against Dortmund which was the main reason why they conceded those two goals as well. From now on they are more away from the title competition in the league.

But I don't think this is very sad for the fans or the board. Because Union Berlin are already having a dream season now and they are getting closer to the Champions League group stage day by day. Finishing in top four would be a great success for them already. They are like Bundesliga's Newcastle if you know what I mean. Grin

Even if you see Union Berlin, who came home in defeat, at least they are still at the top of the standings in third place. Seeing such a tough start to the game from the start and with 2 yellow cards to Niklas Sule and Karim Adeyemi. With Dortmun aggressively attacking the union berlin defense they managed to break the deadlock, it can be said that their defense this time was a bit weaker, Wako in the 61st minute Kevin Behrens equalized, but again their efforts were not enough to break into their defense again, with the result that Dortmund won, I quite agree that their line of defense must be improved in the future.

Indeed, there are two options to make Leverkusen's move to the champions league easier, but if you see the biggest opportunity, maybe Leverkusen can make it through winning points in the bundesliga standings. In the European league they will face tough teams that they rarely face, while in the Bundesliga they may have memorized enough how each team plays this season. So I think Leverkusen's step into the champions league zone will be easier if they focus on the bundesliga and regarding the distance to the teams above it they can still be pursued for the rest of this season.

The match between Leverkusen and Union Saint-Gilloise in the Europa League is an important game for the former. They might not make it to the champions league because the competition for the top four position in the Bundesliga is very stiff. They will have to win most of their games and clubs like RB Leipzig, Dortmund, and Union Berlin and drop points. But the game against Union Saint-Gilloise will be very tough because this team is a formidable side. They are currently in the second position in the Belgian league and have a very good young team. I don't have any favorite team between them, so let the best team win.

The match against Gilloise in the European league will take place in two days and after that Leverkusen will face Wolsburg in the bundesliga. This week will be a busy schedule for Leverkusen, moreover they have to confirm two wins in two different competitions. Maybe the competition in the Bundesliga is quite tough because there are several of these clubs, but I'm pretty sure that Leverkusen can take advantage of the opportunities that exist if 1 or 2 of these clubs start to falter later in the top 4 positions. Only 5 points away from the nearest Leipzig and that can still be caught up if Freiburg and Leipzig encounter inconsistencies this season.

For now I'm feeling closer to Leipzig because of their squad quality. Besides they already won a similar competition against Freiburg in the previous season.

The end of the season is very tight, I think Dortmund also still has a chance because the difference in points is one game victory with three full points and counting the difference between Bayern Munich and Dormund, which is only two points, so I think there are still many opportunities if Bayern Munich can be defeated by one just match.

Unionberlin will probably maintain its position in third place but the task is to keep winning in the rest of the season, it is quite difficult but I am sure Unio Berlin can come out as third.
I also think that it seems that from the whole game Leipzig have been more consistent in their game and so far have been pretty good against every opponent even if they lose, Freiburg have a very tough task if you want higher expectations.

In terms of the results I agree with you but in terms of the performances it was less consistent than the results might suggest. I think you know what I mean. Sometimes you have these games where it is on the edge and could go either way. If that is five times the case and it ends in your favor those five times, your statistics look beautiful but they could be disguising actual weaknesses. This is a bit what happened to Dortmund. They had a couple of games where I thought, ok they could have lost this one the same way they now won it. At some point your game luck is exhausted. As soon as they play against stronger opponents you can see that pretty well. Take the games against Chelsea (who struggle themselves) or Bayern. That's when Dortmund quickly reach their limits. Even against other teams the games were very close sometimes. Not to mention the catastrophe against Leipzig in the DFB Pokal...
