Bayern Munich - Hertha Berlin
Bayern Munich will do their best to avoid another setback after they unexpectedly lost at Hoffenheim a week ago. In today's match they are the definite favorite to win and I do not expect any surprise in this match. Robert Lewandowski did not score in the last 3 matches, and such a series is rare for him. I believe he will score today. My bet: Bayern win (-1.5) @1.40 and Robert Lewandowski will score @1.7

you better call it as 'a hard season'

and the new coach Baum will not survive this season on schalke either - who's betting against it?

This season seems to be going the same way as last season for Schalke.
It is unbelievable that he conceded 4 goals against Leipzig and lost so easily. They had only one shot on target and In my opinion Ibisevic should be started in the first Line-up and not as a substitute.

I agree Schalke must immediately replace Manuel Baum as coach, because in the last 3 matches not a single point was earned.
Even experienced two embarrassing defeats, namely losing 0-8 to Bayern and 0-4 to Leipzig. It's a very bad start for Schalke in
the Bundesliga, if this is left it, is not impossible Schalke will relegation. Even though I'm not a Schalke fan, but in my opinion
the Schalke team is good and doesn't deserve to be relegated.

Never win in 3 Liga matches is unbelievable for Schalke. I don't think they should be relegated at the end of the season because they still deserve to stay. A change of coach may be necessary, it can improve the team's performance for the better but only with a coach that all player trust. Selection of a suitable coach is very difficult for all team to determine because it has something to do with the politic and economic of club management. It is often heard that management is only concerned with their personal project and a lot of complaint from inside and outside. Hopefully they find the right coach to raise the spirit of the club to end the season well.

@Lafu you’re right things don’t look good for Schalke first they got trashed by Bayern, and after such a thrashing one would expect them to immediately bounce back, but unfortunately that didn’t happen and they lost by a big margin in yesterday’s game too. Furthermore if they continue loosing games then I feel that their head coach position will come under scrutiny, and it may lead to his sacking too.

I was hoping that the change of the Coach maybe will bring a bit to the Schalke Team and they playing better !
But that they get again 4 Goals without score 1 that i havnt expected.
I placed my bet on Leipzig so all is good with that one .

Looks like some hard days coming to Schalke.

I think Leipzig was a bit nervous at times. They have missed some opportunities. Otherwise it would have been even more dramatic for Schalke.  
If they don't win the next game either, then they've been without a win in the Bundesliga for 20 games.

I don't know what to expect from those 3 teams in the bottom of the table than losing their 3 first games... Koln 1-3 M'Gladbach, at least they scored a goal! Surprise Leipzig 4 - 0 Schalke 04 with the best "kill/death" ratio of 1/15...
At the opposite Bremen managed to pick a win vs Bielefeld 1-0

Yea that result wasn't expected although possible but what kind of make me perplexed is Leverkusen draw vs Stuttgart, since I didn't watch the match, I will not judge both teams performance but I know that Leverkusen can do way better than this... 3 draw, next game vs Mainz so a win is a must otherwise I won't see them fighting even for Europa League this season 

As expected, Schalke is having massive problems today again. Already 3-0 down at half time. I am sure David Wagner wouldn't have done worse today. But to be fair to Manuel Baum ... Leipzig isn't exactly the team you want to start when you are a new coach of a team that hasn't won for 9 months. I just don't really see many points that could give Schalke fans much hope. That Mainz and Köln are also not much better - when it comes to points at least? Or that they already played against Bayern and Leipzig? But they didn't do any better against Bremen either. 

Good for Schalke and Baum that will have a short break now to maybe sort things out. But their next match against Union will be very important. Because Dortmund is waiting the next match day. Given how Union played yesterday and how Schalke is playing since half a year, it wouldn't surprise me at all when they won't have a single point after the match against Dortmund.

Surprise in one match , Frankfurt has changed the game and won against Hoffenheim so my bet was wrong on this Game !
Bremen won also and got also an wrong bet there. But it was better with my bets as last weekend , god thanks.
Excited about Schalke but guess they will lose this match also.

All the favorites are winning, nothing special till now.
The only interesting match right now is Eintracht vs Hoffenheim which is on 1-1 score. Dortmund and Gladbach have already won this game as they are leading 3-0 on their games both.
I expect Schalke to tie with Leipzig as they are not so strong to get this win.

Halftime now and it looks like that if it keeps this way as it was going that my bets will be coming true!
But about the last weekend i dont trust any team but it looks good .
Surprised about Bremen has scored a Goal and looking forward what Schalke will be doing !

My bets:
RB Leipzig: handicap (-1.5) @1.75.
Borussia Dortmund: 1 @1.35
Given the performance of Schalke 04 so far this season, RB Leipzig should take a certain victory today. The hosts are a definite favorite of this meeting and if they play to their best, they should beat Schalke with a few goals.
In the Dortmund-Freiburg game, the hosts will also play the role of the clear favorite of the game, but they cannot afford to be underestimated the rival, as Freiburg can make a surprise.

I am going for one more bet in Bundesliga today in match Stuttgart vs Bayer Leverkusen.
Home team have many players missing today due to injuries and red cards, and this may be perfect time for Bayer Leverkusen first win in this season, and looking at h2h Bayer is also better.
Bayer Leverkusen Win (risky)
Bayer Leverkusen draw no bet

It is still early stage in Bundesliga so bet smaller stakes only

Yep, well done with your bet, I was dead wrong once again But if there is something positive: I rather lose a bet 0-4 than with some annoying late goal.

Don't understand the odds on Bielefeld today. They did well in Frankfurt although that draw was a bit lucky and then grinded out a 1-0 win against Cologne in their typical manner. As we know Werder is really poor at home and I wouldn't read too much into that win at Schalke (anyone beats Schalke). Bielefeld can be an annoying opponent, since they play very well organized defensively and are good on counter-attacks. 1.80 for Bielefeld X2 looks super tempting, but I already know what happens, if I play that bet And if Werder fails to even beat Bielefeld at home, against whom are they supposed to win then ?!

Stuttgart again super overrated, 2.25 for Leverkusen It's rare for Leverkusen to not have a win under their belt going into round 3, but they played two good teams in Leipzig/Wolfsburg. Stuttgart lost to Freiburg and then beat Mainz and we all saw how poor Mainz is atm. I would have expected something below 2.00, so good value on LEV me thinks.  You can check the odds for Cologne - Gladbach as a reference, where Gladbach is around 1.90. Cologne is a bit better than Stuttgart and Gladbach/Leverkusen I would rate equal at this point. So these Leverkusen odds make no sense.

Frankfurt vs Hoffenheim should be a good one to watch, but odds are ok. Lets see, what Freiburg can do in Dortmund, maybe they can get some upset here. And later today I am curious about the "new" Schalke then

Bayern had a disappointing result last week after losing a landslide defeat to Hoffenheim with a score of 4-1. However, they managed to bankrupt and win the DFB pokal cup after defeating Dorthmud by a narrow score of 3-2, but I think Bayern Munich is still one of the champions and favorite champions. this season, there is not even competition in the German league so there is no change at all who will be champions this season. Their next match will be against Hertha Berlin but it is not a difficult thing for Bayern Munich, they will be very easy to secure three points especially playing at Allianz Stadium.

Glad to read that Union Berlin has won there match about Mainz and my bet was right on the win !
Havnt expected that they win with 4 Goals and Mainz dosnt scored a single Goal but im good with that.
Lets hope there are some other matches today also that i have placed a bet on it .

Wonder know if it faced Bayern what would be the result... Mainz, Schalke, Koln, Bremen are threatened of being relegated this season and it doesn't seems they are trying to do some efforts to change the situation..and look what we have, Leipzig vs Schalke and Koln vs M'Gladbach, spicy 3 red strikes by tomorrow in the bottom of the table?

Kramaric? He is indeed younger than muller or lewandowski but seriously bayern willing to spend the money on him? For how much? They should consider a long term contract striker who can develop and settle there for long time , are they run out of choice? Timo werner should have be a perfect choice but chelsea way ahead of them .

6 goals in the last 3 matches is indeed quite impressive, kramaric could continue this awesome performance with hoffenheim but things might will be so much different when he is in bayern.
Kramaric is 29 years old now and he might could help backing up lewandowski for a couple years ... not as a main striker tho.
Not sure it's gonna be a good option for both parties, kramaric is the first choice at hoffenheim but probably not if he choose to move to Bayern.
