Leipzig vs Leverkusen and home team in the good condition they had 8 times unbeatable in all competitions and one of important winning is when they able to beat Real Madrid on champion league so obviously Leipzig mentally is very good and against Leverkusen today i am sure they will gets 3 points from it especially Leverkusen under Alonso still find their shape and unstable so this match will belongs to Leipzig
For other match Frankfurt vs Dortmund actually this match results is hard to predicted because i have to say the conditions for both of teams is not so different but maybe Dortmund has slightly better because they were successfully stole point from Manchester City and qualify to knockout stage on champion league and actually last season Dortmund was able to beat Frankfurt several times but for today match i highly doubt because Dortmund performance on Bundesliga was unstable and for this match i might to think to bet over 2.5 goals this because both of teams were quite productive and possibly will scoring goals for each other
There is a very favorable point that I want to highlight, Dortmund is a very complete team, of course nothing to do with Lewa in those days when Dortmund had many teams on their knees, the technical director has always been a very iconic character and I also consider it very good, at that time I managed a squad that in every competition always put its best style of play according to the team to face, one of the things I saw was that every team played with a different strategy and that It's very unusual, I don't know if I watched all the games of each of their rivals, but I really admire the firmness in those games by the team, I think that's what Dortmund is doing.
Leverkusen and Xavi Alonso needs those 3 points today against Koln and so far the game is not looking promising for them at all even if we are only 25 minutes into the game. More than this , Koln are in a bad situation as well and they needs points today as well but Alonso might be in trouble if we won't snatch at least 1 point from Koln.
Frankfurt - Hoffenheim should be the game of the night in Bundesliga and I'm expecting a lot of goals from this game and ready to trow a bet on both teams to score in first half.
I left Koln leading with 1 goal vs Leverkusen and I was like here we go again but now I see they managed to score 2 goals and win! Second win, did Leverkusen recover finally?
Leverkusen won the match 2-1. And their performance was stable. They were very tactical in this match. And in the end, they managed to win. However, throughout the match, we saw Koln dominate. Leverkusen got back on track with an impressive 5-0 win over Union Berlin. And I think the Leverkusen team is difficult to hold back now. They will improve themselves and gradually climb up the points table. Now Leverkusen is 13th on the table. And I guess within the next few matches they can get into the top 10 of the table.
Well we have to consider something very important, the arrival of Xabi Alonso is key for this team, Leverkusen is a great change, in fact it was in danger of relegation and very likely if they had not made such an effective decision to hire Xabi they would have done so very quickly, for me the hero of this team is Xabi Alonso, because apart from that he has managed to engage all the players and play good football, something that he needed quickly, in fact I think that if they can quickly reach position No. 10 in the table, it's just a matter of continuing to perform as well as they have shown.
On the other hand the competition is tough, playing in the Bundesliga is not easy at all, the toughest teams are the ones that are always in the first places, and when they position themselves there it is very difficult to dethrone them, however if Xabi Alonso continues to do his work you have to be careful.
“No magic words”: Xabi Alonso explains how Bayer 04 Leverkusen beat Union Berlin 5:0 after a frustrating first half “For sure we have players who have this power to run,” Alonso said, “but we were stable. We started with the runs from the strikers, with the duels, and that’s the basic element that we need for each game.”
Citing the team’s “control” and “capacity to score goals,” Alonso said, “We want to build on” the result against Union. “Of course, we need time. We have the last week [before the break]. Today was important and we want to keep going.”
