After 35 German Bundesliga games, Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen tested conceded their first defeat today against RB Leipzig and to think that it happened in their own home turf makes everything more embarrassing for the German champions. It seems this season isn't going to be as rosy as it was for Bayer Leverkusen last campaign but that I don't mean to say I'm writing them off in the race to win the league title this season.
Despite the loss, I still have a lot of confidence on this Bayer Leverkusen team and I also think they have all it takes to compete for the league title. Now that Bayer Leverkusen have lost their own game, I'll wait to see if Bayern Munich will be able to defeat Freiburg tomorrow.

One of my strongest predictions This season was that Bayer Leverkusen would not go unbeaten again this season not that they aren’t good enough to repeat this streak but Many of clubs wouldn’t back down for them and this is the time. Bayer Leverkusen usually do come aback against opponents but today they just have to test their own medicine, Leipzig was exceptional most especially Lois Openda who has been consistent for Leipzig since his arrival last summer. The Leipzig might h be having a better Season than last but regardless of that they just solve one of the jinxes of the Season already.

Dortmund on the other hand are also dropping points when need to stacking them up, I think it is fair to say they wouldn’t still be tittle contenders this season too. Now Bayer Leverkusen dropping points it is now advantage to Bayern Munich, maybe the would utilize this opportunity and go top of the table or they won’t

Including me who bet on Leverkusen victory had to lose a few dollars. Leipzig deserved to win because even though they were behind, their spirit to break Leverkusen dominance was an extraordinary motivation. Salute to the Leipzig players and their third goal deserves a thumbs up, a hard kick from the penalty box. Is this defeat a sign that Leverkusen is no longer favored to win the Bundesliga? Don't worry there are still many matches they can win. Wink

Bayern Leverkusen is not invincible after all as RB Leipzig have done what no German team have done for since last year. I think today's result changes everything for the German champions and Xabi Alonso in particular. The greatest beneficiary of the loss incurred by Bayern Leverkusen today is Bayern Munic who is desperate to win the German Bundesliga this season after losing it to Leverkusen last season. Tomorrow Bayern Munic will face SC Freiburg and there are high chances that Bayern Munic will win the match to enter top of the league table depending on how many goals they are able to score.

Finally I was right that Leverkusen were not going to have another unbeaten streek this season, I knew they didn't have much issues with their team, neither was their strategy or tactics faulty but the fact that they have gotten so much attention emanating from their performance in the past season will exert some forms of pressure on them...

It is true that reaching a new record in the near past will make things difficult for Bayer Leverkusen this season since as you mentioned they are trying to keep their good record in front of their fans and the other teams so they are playing under pressure. Besides Leverkusen aren't scoring at the end of the game as they used to do in the previous season. This match against Leipzig showed how they were watching their two goals advantage became a defeat in the first half hour of the second period..
Leipzig are the first right now and I think Bayern Munich will follow soon.

This isn't to be considered a set back tho because they can still be able to bounce back firmly a s still win the league title if they make sure this happens to be the only losses they will suffer this season in the bundesliga but beyond this, a consistent one can led to the. Loosing out in the title dream for the second time in a row.

Bayer Leverkusen disappointed a lot of their fans following their poor performance today, no one expected them to lose the game after their 2:0 lead in the first half but it's unfortunate that they failed to keep up with their performance and the away team took the advantage to come back to the game and end up giving them a very shameful defeat.

RB Leipzig has an outstanding performance today as no one believed that they will do what the Bayer Leverkusen team has been doing but in a better way today so it is a big congratulations for them for finally being the team to have defeated Bayer Leverkusen in the league since last season, most bettors who predicted Leverkusen to win wil be hoping to  see them get back to winning ways because they failed to doing what they knew best today.

In the second match of the season, the Leverkusen team was defeated. From this it can be assumed that the Leverkusen team is not in a great rhythm like last season. However, there is no chance to say that Leverkusen's performance was poor in this match. Leverkusen's players tried their best to perform well. But due to the weakness of the defense, the Leverkusen team had to lose the match in the end.

We also saw Leverkusen's poor defense against Gladbach in the first match. Leverkusen also conceded two goals against Gladbach. And the team conceded three goals against Leipzig. Xabi Alonso should make arrangements to strengthen his squad's defense. Leverkusen is still a very strong team. The attacking side of this team is also very strong. But if the defense cannot be strengthened, the team will fall behind in the title fight. The main contenders for the title, Bayern Munich, are in a very good position so far.
Leverkusen actually played very well in the first half, they dictated the course of the match, and they created quite a lot of chances. Unfortunately towards the end of the first half, Xabi Alonso troops lost focus, and failed to anticipate counterattacks well, so that the score in the first half became 2-1. Leipzig seems to have learned well how to beat Leverkusen, they carry a defensive style of play and rely on counterattacks. The two goals scored by Leipzig in the second half also came through the same scheme, namely counterattacks that failed to be anticipated by Leverkusen three defenders.

On the other hand, Leverkusen unbeaten journey has now stopped in the hands of Leipzig, although we know it is not easy to continue to maintain it for a very long time. Xabi Alonso seems to have to change his strategy when his team faces a tough opponent, it is very risky to continue to push the players to attack too much throughout the match. I think Leipzig deserves praise for their success today, they managed to provide a valuable lesson for Leverkusen. Leverkusen defeat is certainly very beneficial for Bayern Munchen, who are trying hard to win back the Bundesliga trophy this season.

Leverkusen had previously taken the lead and they were able to score two goals in the first half, unfortunately Leipzig made a comeback after initially being left behind. Marco Rose's team was not discouraged, they were able to turn the situation around by winning full points at Leverkusen's headquarters. Leverkusen actually dominated the match with 63% possession, they had 26 total shots and two of them were converted into goals. While Leipzig did not have the same total shots as the hosts, they were able to make the most of every opportunity they had. As a result, Leverkusen failed to maintain their unbeaten run as in the previous season. With this victory, Leipzig is temporarily perched at the top of the standings. Tomorrow, Bayern Munich must win when they host Freiburg so that they can rise to the top of the standings, it is interesting for us to wait.


From the defeat of Leverkusen today it has been seen who deserves to be blamed and all this is the bad mistake of the performance of the goalkeeper.
As long as Leverkusen relies on goalkeeper Lukas Hradecky, it is very unlikely to get bad results because he is one of the best goalkeepers that Leverkusen has.
Somehow Xabi actually relied on Matej Kovar which was very bad, his expertise, even Leverkusen could have got 1 point from a draw but when the Openda fired the ball remotely, Matej Kovar failed to catch the ball.
I am sure that if Luke Hradecky is reliable, it will definitely not end in defeat like this.
All Leverkusen players have performed very brilliant with shocking attacks and very reliable tactics, but the goalkeeper made Leverkusen fans and gamblers very disappointed with the results of the defeat.
I hope Xabi can have an alternative not to rely too much on Matej Kovar.

It can't be confirmed that easily, the league journey is only one week and Bayer Munich has only played one match, and in the match against Wolfsburg yesterday they were quite difficult, if there was no own goal it might have ended with a draw in yesterday's match.

Vincent Kompany needs to improve their skills, and because of that they can't relax, because it seems that the situation has changed and other teams are also getting stronger, Dortmund and Leverkusen are also still in the same zone which is always a strong challenger for Bayer Munich, they must remain aware of that if they want to win again.
Kompany should pay attention to the defense, their attack has always been at a high level, but the defense has been the biggest problem. Kim and Davis did not have a very good match against Wolfsburg, so far I do not like the defense in this form, and I hope that Kompany is not going to count only on a strong attack, because Wolfsburg is not the strongest team, but they could not contain even their forwards.

When Kompany was still a player, Kompany was basically a defender and thus, at least made Kompany understand more about making a good and strong defense. Moreover, Bayern Munich has players with good quality in its main squad and thus, it is certainly a must for Kompany to be able to make Bayern Munich's defense even better to get clean sheets  more often. Because if Bayern Munich is able to have a strong and good defense,then maybe it is certain that Bayern Munich will be able to dominate the Bundesliga again.

But, about other teams I think at this moment there is also nothing that looks better. Because after all, although teams like Bayer Leverkusen also won in their first match, but the fact is that they are also difficult and need greater efforts to get their first three points in the previous match. Therefore, I think at this moment it is still uncertain which team has a better chance and also, the league has just started and ofcourse there will be many bad events and result that they will get throughout this season.

Kompany must have known that his defense position in yesterday's match was not good and or he was testing and training directly Davis and Kim that might be on Kompany's mind, because some things need to be tested continuously to strengthen the defense, and it's true like what hahay said, Kompany used to be a defender and he must have understood what to do in defense that needs to be built with the process of maturity and experience playing on his students.

Yes so far it has gone quite smoothly and as usual at the start of the season, seeing Bayer Leverkusen also lost to Leipzig, the fact that indeed when all teams have not met each other it is still possible to experience defeat by other teams that have changed this season.

So two of the potential title contenders, Borussia Dortmund and VfB Stuttgart with 0-0 draw against Werder Bremen and 3-3 draw against Mainz respectively.
This could be an early sign the the real fight for the championship will be between Bayer and Bayern.
Bayern is playing Freiburg at home, Freiburg finished in the middle of the table last season, so anything other than an easy win for Bayern will be a disappointment.
Leverkusen is playing against Lepzig right now. After half an hour, we have a goalless draw, but Leverkusen is dominating with shots on goals, so might find their way to the net eventually.

Observing Stuttgart's performance recently in their last two matches played so far, I don't think they look like potential Bundesliga title contenders again. Their performances have not seemed as good this season compared to last season. Stuttgart has lost one game and also drawn one game, and these matches Stuttgart lost and drew were supposed to be winning matches for them. Let's see what will happen in their next match. If they really draw the match again or lose, the season may be rough for them. As for Dortmund, they are not bad, and we are seeing their performances. They are really playing well, but luck was not on their side today.

Leverkusen and Leipzig are both strong teams, and in this type of match, I hardly have a favorite to win because, as a big team match, it's always possible that anything can happen. So I am not that surprised that Leipzig won the match. I know some people were expecting Leverkusen to repeat what they did last season, but I don't think it's that possible. They can't just keep winning matches like last season. I'm not saying that Leverkusen can't win the Bundesliga, but the opportunity to win matches like last season may not be there this season.

And yet they lost to Leipzig. Yes, the undefeated streak is over, but I doubt they are incredibly upset about that fact. It's definitely frustrating to break such a long streak, but they have every chance to win the league again at the moment, despite the fact that the coach himself doesn't believe in such a thing. They fought to the last in today's match, and they didn't lose with a rout. As for Bayern, with such a total advantage in the game, they should have ended the match with a difference of 5 or more goals as it was earlier, but no, they barely won the game

Bayer Leverkusen have not shown that they will be champion this season. It might be too early to judge them but they have struggled to get wins from low-placed teams. They were not impressive against Borussia Monchengladbach and also struggled to beat fourth-division FC Carl Zeiss Jena in the first round of the DFB-Pokal. Coach Xabi Alonso would have to find means to make his team create and also maximize opportunities. The game with Champions League side RB Leipzig will be a good test to show how the team is improving. Leipzig also has three points in the Bundesliga after edging over VfL Bochum scoring one goal and conceding none. Leverkusen will be without captain Lukas Hradecky but hopefully will do a good job.
In the past two weeks, they ended up winning the supercup, then the league game and then the cup game, that seems like three out of three? I can understand the fact that it may have looked a little bit close, but even Real Madrid is having hard time getting wins and got two draws, it is not really that shocking that Leverkusen is getting wins but they are just close that's it. This is why I believe that we should not be looking at any of this all that crazily, we should consider this as normal.

The reality is that we should consider how to make money some other way, and because of that we should consider this to be a great situation without a doubt, we can make this work one way or another, it happens and it shouldn't be a big deal. In the end Leverkusen is still getting the wins they need and I believe that as long as they get the wins there is nothing wrong with getting them very close, it is not really a big deal and Leverkusen could be considered ok.

Bayern Munich embarked on a new adventure with Vincent Kompany as they host Freiburg at home in their second match of the season. Bayern's defensive problems, which were very noticeable last season, continued in the first match of the season. Even though Bayern had defensive problems, they showed in the last game that they are very effective in offense. Bayern Munich will remind the opposition of the quality of their squad in this match. Freiburg, on the other hand, showed how dangerous they can be, especially in attack, with wins against Osnabruck and Stuttgart. Although Bayern is the favorite in this match, Freiburg can take advantage of Bayern's defensive weaknesses and score. My preference will be a mutual goal.

I personally can't be sure the competition will only be for Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen after the draws that happened for Dortmund and Stuttgart because anyway, from the beginning I personally only thought the competition for the Bundesliga trophy would be interesting. Because after all, Bayern Munich who are still in doubt due to Kompany's quality is also a doubt and also, Dortmund who managed some great players especially about Guirassy who might make Dortmund's attack line will be better. Also,  although Bayer Leverkusen still has the same quality as last season, but basically to defend the title is not easy at all.

With reasons like that, then I believe the Bundesliga competition this season will be very interesting. So, about the draws obtained by Dortmund and Stuttgart for me cannot be used as a benchmark for the acquisition of the trophy this season because they will also still have the chance to get more results throughout the season. After all, the fact that Bayer Leverkusen also lost and this defeat for me is also not surprising because after all, in the previous match against Monchengladbach also the fact that Bayer Leverkusen almost only got a draw.

This season won’t be easy for Bayer Leverkusen as people are expecting, they had a perfect season last year and they have started to suffer defeat from their second opening Bundesliga match. Although there are signs that they will not do that well this season during their preseason because they were not performing to expectations, and for Alonso not to sign some quality players that can give the squad more encouragement, I think it will make work difficult for himself this season because he will be playing in the Champions League also.

I will
Be expecting Bayern Munich to seal another win tomorrow to top the Bundesliga title so that Leverkusen and Dortmund will know that Bayern Munich is back.

I just don't understand how it happened. I had a bet placed on Leverkusen win & over 1.5 goals. But now we see this comeback and a 3-2 loss... I would never expect Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen to lose a game to Leipzig from a 2-0 score advantage.  Sad

Of course nothing is guaranteed in football. Anyways, Leverkusen should have played as good as the first leg. I don't know maybe they got complacent. But actually I thought Leipzig's last minute goal in the first half would be enough for them not to feel complacent.

This is good news for Bayern Munich. I assume they would beat Freiburg home right?  Tongue  After seeing this result I started to doubt that one too. This is why I won't place a bet on Bayern Munich win. I would prefer goal bets.

The season we all await for is finally here and Bayern Leverkusen still has continued their unbeaten record last season on the German Bundesliga side, the question will now be, would they continue this journey until the end of the season? Like the way they went unbeaten last season, I doubt. However, nothing much has really changed as regards to their performance, and I haven't seen any sign of weakness to not win their next game.
It won't be easy for Leverkusen and I'm sure they won't be able to do it again this season because Bayern's team has improved quite a bit so it will be a threat for Leverkusen.
And also this week Leverkusen will face a tough opponent, RB Leipzig is a team that is difficult to beat so I think at the beginning of this season we don't need to exaggerate or measure Leverkusen's strength like last season, I'm sure there will be a difference compared to last season for Leverkusen and also other Bundesliga teams.
Against RB Leipzig this week I think Leverkusen's percentage to win is not that big.

Bayern won a close game against Wolfsburg and this isn't best proof to know that they improved. What are the reasons that you think they have improved?

Saying that Bayer Leverkusen won't do it again means what, becoming the champion or not losing a single game? Leverkusen is quite the same team as last season. There is no reason to think they would be weaker than last season. You are confusing the basics here.

Against RB Leipzig it is going to be a tough test for them and I think it is the best time now to see where they stand. If they win this game, it will give them a whole lot of confidence for good reasons.

And yet they lost to Leipzig. Yes, the undefeated streak is over, but I doubt they are incredibly upset about that fact. It's definitely frustrating to break such a long streak, but they have every chance to win the league again at the moment, despite the fact that the coach himself doesn't believe in such a thing.
