Bookmakers even favor Bayern Munich as the winner this season followed by Leverkusen and Dortmund. And also bookmakers favor Kane and Guirassy as the strongest candidates for the top scorer this season which gives a little sign that Leverkusen will also compete strongly with Dortmund.

Borussia Dortmund is the team in the Bundesliga that does the best job of selling players rather than winning the championship. They may even be one of the teams in the world that does this job best. If they were aiming for the championship, they would act differently, but I think their aim is to sell players for high prices and increase the team's profit. I don't think they are candidates for the championship this year in the Bundesliga, but I think they will be in the top three.

I also feel the same way as you to see Dortmund's interest in the last few seasons, even so it is true that Dortmund is more concerned with selling players and creating top players and to aim to win the title it seems that there is not the slightest Dortmund want to get and compete with their Rivals such as Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen which we know that these two clubs are currently rivals after Bayer Leverkusen was handled by Xabi Alonso, Dortmund still lost their direction in their goals in the last two seasons Dortmund only finished in 5th place which indicates that Dortmund always has difficulty in maintaining its position in second place in the standings.

Congratulations on Leverkusen's victory, this is just the beginning of the season but they have shown an extraordinary performance like last season. I think this can be a reference for them to be more confident to start an extraordinary season and want to compete for the Bundesliga title with Bayern Munich again. I am sure Bayern Munich is currently worried about Leverkusen's preparation this season which will make it difficult for them.

Even though they were left behind and got a red card, it did not discourage the players at all, they seemed to continue fighting until the end and Xabi Alonso was always able to make his players appear impressive.

Agree with you, he seems too brave in taking -1 bet for Dortmund because basically Eintracht Frankfurt itself is not team that can be underestimated, last season Eintracht Frankfurt was even able to finish just below Dortmund even though with fairly large points difference.
If this match ends in draw or surprise that shows Eintracht Frankfurt as the winner then everything will end in failure.
But on the other hand, there is nothing wrong with believing in Dortmund because they still have squad filled with reliable players, especially in the first season Nuri Sahin as Dortmund coach has tried to bring in several players to strengthen his team.

If I personally in this match would much prefer BTTS or Double Chance.

Your pick for Dortmund personally is what I consider wild, Dortmund is better of with the business of nurturing and selling of players than trying to win trophies and that has been a logical explanation to why they have not gotten history with winning the bundesliga title often, this doesn't mean that should be underrated because mostly Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen has been the most talked about and favourite for the trophy this season. Paying close attention to Dortmund could avail an opportunity to be utilized, last season Dortmund made a good attempt so this season I wouldn't be surprised if they do better because like you said they only had a change of coach but their player quality somehow is still very much intact.

All this is just because most people and even bookies only look at the history of the club so it is not surprising that Bayern Munich and Leverkusen are still favorites because Dortmund has not yet gained history in winning the Bundesliga title.
However, Dortmund also seems to have to be paid close attention because even though they have a new coach, the players they have are more qualified.



Even though Dortmund is still considered a bit underrated by some people, I still bet on Dortmund -1 and didn't even bet on Leverkusen winning.

I even think that Dortmund will make a bigger surprise this season with the ability possessed by Nuri Sahin because Dortmund is a team that is able to improve the quality of its players very well. Although for now I also do not imagine that Dortmund will immediately surpass Leverkusen and Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, but I am still quite sure that Dortmund can be a barrier for Leverkusen and Bayern Munich to reach the top position in the standings until the end of the season.

I expect some rivalry between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen in this season.
Yesterday match started well for Bayer Leverkusen but they were surprised by the performance of Stuttgart.
Stuttgart was able to score two goals and overtake them until the last minutes of the game when Leverkusen returned and won by penalties.
That match worries me about Leverkusen and how ready they are when they will start the season and face Bayern Munich.

This is WILD a Bundesliga season. Dortmund seems really hazardous as heck. They are striving for the title and have upfront firepower. Though the bookies are worried, Bayern's is still the preferred. Leverkusen is mixed in with Dortmund's down their necks breathing. Leverkusen, I'll say you shown tenacity against Stuttgart. Still, this is not a one-time occurrence. You have to bring that vigour every damned game. Dortmund is ravenous; Bayern's machine is different. There's going to be a carnage this season. Three teams, with one trophy.

Stuttgart and Leipzig will be a dark horse team who are ready to surprise other favorite teams, but both are still less qualified to compete with Leverkusen and Bayern Munich. Dortmund is often slipped in important matches, they are also less eager to maintain their performance, if Nuri Sahin is able to improve Dortmund performance and the mentality of players is always maintained when playing on Big Match, maybe they have a chance.

I did not pay much attention to Dortmund in the competition for the Bundesliga title, the change of coach and losing key players made Dortmund have to re -adapt to the strategy carried by their new coach. Bayern Munich is still a favorite despite failing last season, but Leverkusen will try to continue to dominate to win the second title of the Bundesliga in a row.

Leverkusen have won the German Super Cup and it was hell of a work honestly.    Because they got a red card in the first half but this still didn't stop them. Even though Stuttgart got ahead, they came back and won by penalties. Xabi Alonso is continuing on his magical run. Starting the season with trophy must be feeling superb for the whole team and the fans.

It is good to see that the same spirit exists among the players. Maybe another unbeaten run is about to start...  

This season Bundesliga will be more competitive than previous seasons, potentially involving more than two teams in the fight for the trophy. Leverkusen, Bayern Munchen and Dortmund are the teams that are most likely to compete in the top four of the standings until the end of the season, if it really happens then the Bundesliga will be more interesting to follow. Stuttgart is also worth considering, they have managed to maintain their good performance until now, their recent defeat to Leverkusen in the German Super Cup can be attributed to a bit of bad luck. Meanwhile, Leverkusen is now more confident to face the new season, because they have again managed to increase the number of trophy collections.

We know that Bayern Munchen has made every effort to increase the depth of the squad, as has their other rival Dortmund. Therefore, Xabi Alonso will get more pressure, because in reality defending the trophy is more difficult than vice versa. The tight schedule of matches in the Champions League may affect their performance in the Bundesliga, the team that can perform consistently in every competition will be very lucky. In this case, Bayern Munchen is used to various pressures, as is Dortmund, in this case Leverkusen should be wary. In the end, Leverkusen may not be able to repeat the unbeaten record, and Bayern Munchen may fail to dominate again, giving Dortmund and other Bundesliga contestants a chance to win the trophy, anything can happen.

The whole team in Dortmund is based on selling players to other teams. As you already said, they are not a team with strong financial power like Bayern Munich. Dortmund's first priority is not even winning the Bundesliga title but they want to sell players and earn money and that's how everything works in Dortmund.
The interesting thing about Dortmund is they even have more fans to watch games in the stadium which can show they have much more potential than other teams in Germany.
 

An awesome performance it has been for Leverkusen, here's a reason to be really tough with their confidence this season, starting off winning a trophy is a very good and ideal performance from Leverkusen, just maybe they could get a trio this season (lol) anyways congratulations to them on this victory and the trophy they have won. This for me is a whole lot as it regards their confidence boost and their psychology been at its best. Winning Stuttgart even with all of the challenges they had to face earlier is really a commendable performance I'm hopeful they keep up this way with the rest of the season.
