In addition to Bayern Munich and Leverkusen, we also cannot miss Frankfurt who is the mediator of the competition between the two teams. Frankfurt will likely appear more consistent considering their schedule is not included in the Champions League. So this season Frankfurt can focus on maximizing their chances in the Bundesliga. Occupying 2nd position with a small difference from Leverkusen requires Frankfurt to be able to create distance.
Frankfurt can indeed be an obstacle for Leverkusen in terms of competing for its position in the Bundesliga standings, but Frankfurt must be willing to make improvements in terms of consistency because Frankfurt has also experienced two defeats and three draws during the thirteen weeks in the Bundesliga this season. So at least Frankfurt must continue to be able to win matches so that their position is not taken by Leverkusen even though Frankfurt is finding it more difficult to catch up with Bayern Munich who are currently at the top of the Bundesliga standings.

Leipzig situation is very bad right now with five losses in row in European competition. Because they are playing so poorly it is very unlikely they will be able to make it to play off round even if they win their last three matches. At this point best thing for Leipzig to do would be to focus on Bundesliga where they still have chance to finish second or third which would get them spot in UEFA Champions League next season. Unfortunately Leipzig performance has been getting worse after strong start to season. In their upcoming Bundesliga matches against best teams they will probably need to be lucky to get good results because way they are playing now suggests they will probably lose.
RB Leipzig surely have poor run as they lost 5 games and have 1 draw but now in last 2 games we have changed, and they are on winning streak even situation is still not favourable as they are going to host Aston Villa and Frankfurt in coming days then in last game of this year they will visit Allianz Arena Munich which is also not easy, but they are trying to pick momentum and have their performance back which will give them boost even all is not easy but at least they are doing their best.We have no point for them in Champions League, but they are doing good in Bundesliga and DFB Pokal which is good point and things could be surely back in good while they will try to play aggressive which is their trademark and this strategy surely going to help them.
Before we saw this good performance from Eintracht Frankfurt we couldn't expect to see a team like Eintracht Frankfurt can even be in the second place of the Bundesliga while other teams can't have good performances. Eintracht Frankfurt is currently the closest team to Bayern Munich while Dortmund is far and they couldn't get good results. Also, Leverkusen did not perform as well as they did last season. Eintracht Frankfurt doesn't even have good and famous players like Bayern Munich and Leverkusen even their coach Dino Toppmöller seems unknown to me.
Can Frankfurt compete with Bayern Munich for the title? I think Frankfurt will not. Frankfurt is currently in second place in the points table. However, Frankfurt is 6 points behind Bayern Munich. Since Bayern Munich's performance has been very consistent so far, it will be a much harder task to reduce this 6 points gap.
It is true that Frankfurt is playing well. Frankfurt players have been able to score 33 goals in 13 matches. However, Frankfurt's defense is a bit weak. Due to this, Frankfurt has lost points in a few matches. However, if Bayern Munich does not lose points, then there is no chance of Frankfurt taking the top spot in the table.
In addition to Bayern Munich and Leverkusen, we also cannot miss Frankfurt who is the mediator of the competition between the two teams. Frankfurt will likely appear more consistent considering their schedule is not included in the Champions League. So this season Frankfurt can focus on maximizing their chances in the Bundesliga. Occupying 2nd position with a small difference from Leverkusen requires Frankfurt to be able to create distance.
Frankfurt can indeed be an obstacle for Leverkusen in terms of competing for its position in the Bundesliga standings, but Frankfurt must be willing to make improvements in terms of consistency because Frankfurt has also experienced two defeats and three draws during the thirteen weeks in the Bundesliga this season. So at least Frankfurt must continue to be able to win matches so that their position is not taken by Leverkusen even though Frankfurt is finding it more difficult to catch up with Bayern Munich who are currently at the top of the Bundesliga standings.
Bayern Munich should forget about the DFB Pokal competition this season and should only focus on the bigger competitions such as the Champions League and also the Bundesliga because both of those big competitions still have time for Bayern Munich to achieve it this season after Bayern Munich failed to beat Bayer Leverkusen in the small competitions such as the DFB Pokal. But apart from all that, for now I also don't think that Bayern Munich is worse than Leverkusen because in the Bundesliga Bayern Munich still has a better advantage than Leverkusen at the moment.
Bayern Munich has always been the best team in this league. Leverkusen had a legendary season last year so they couldn't win but I think they will reverse that this year. The game they lost to Leverkusen doesn't really matter, they still continue to play in the two tournaments where the main goal is to win there.Bayern Munich is primarily concerned with the league and the Champions League, which is why I believe Leverkusen have benefit from the possibility to defeat them in the DFB Cup, but I am confident that if it were the league or the Champions League, Munich would not provide Leverkusen with the opportunity to defeat them in the competition. In that DFB, he will be very difficult if not Xabi Alonso will win the Cup because they have the possibility to defeat Bayern Munich in the cup, and I don't think they can find any club in the DFB competition that will beat Leverkusen since they are currently the best in the competition. And in the league Munich has overtaken and will continue to do well in the league and be getting more gap in the league table, that even they lose any point they will still be leading the league table. Bayen Munich is facing Shakhtar donetsk tonight and am sure that game will be a soft game for Munich because I don't think shakhtar donetsk will get opportunities to defeat Munich.
I wouldn't say Leverkusen's performance as a team that won the Bundesliga trophy last season is mediocre at the moment. They are still playing well, it's just that their performance is not as good as last season. If Xabi Alonso gets the players he wants in the transfer market later, maybe he will fix his shortcomings this season. Although they are behind Munich in points, they still maintain their position in the standings well. Their chances for the Bundesliga trophy may be getting smaller, but they still have other competitions that they can try. So does Munich.
Yes, the transfer market will provide an opportunity for Alonso to buy some players needed so that Leverkusen can perform well. I am not saying that Leverkusen's performance is bad. But compared to last season, Leverkusen did experience a decline in performance. But they managed to beat Munich in the DFB Pokal which means they have managed to eliminate one of their toughest rivals to win the title. So far, Leverkusen has also performed quite well in the UCL by being in 6th position in the standings which means they will qualify directly for the next round.I think the competition between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen in the title race this season will be much fiercer and Leverkusen must still be watched out for and also favored.
I tend to think that it is not Leverkusen who are in decline, maybe other rival clubs have improved, or maybe Xabi Alonso's style of play is no longer as effective as last season so it is difficult for him to maintain the team with the level of consistency of last season. Maybe bringing new faces into the squad can help Leverkusen navigate the Bundesliga better. Let's see in January if Leverkusen has such a plan.
Such a plan could be born on Leverkusen's side if the team has more funds to get involved in the transfer market in January and what you said is also quite reasonable that it is not Leverkusen who have declined, but rather it is more about the rivals in the Bundesliga who have been able to read Leverkusen's tactics themselves this season so that Leverkusen looks a little difficult to improve like they did last season. In addition, Bayern Munich who are coached by a new coach have also started to rise again so that has also become a very real obstacle for Leverkusen and also for the other teams in the Bundesliga this season. I wouldn't say Leverkusen's performance as a team that won the Bundesliga trophy last season is mediocre at the moment. They are still playing well, it's just that their performance is not as good as last season.

Frankfurt is currently in 2nd place in the standings with a one-point advantage over Leverkusen, in the next match Frankfurt will visit Leipzig's headquarters if they are able to beat them of course this will open the way for them to maintain their position in the standings longer but it is not easy Leipzig is a strong team, in my opinion maybe in the 14th week of the Bundesliga their position will be taken over by Leverkusen.
5 match with 5 defeats is really bad result, Leipzig has lost the opportunity because to enter the play-off round is impossible unless Leipzig is able to win the remaining 3 match but that also will not guarantee to enter the play-off round.
What Leipzig must do is just focus on the Bundesliga competition and they can get runner-up or top 3 and get ticket to UCL next season, Leipzig performance so far has really seen decline after at the beginning of the season they appeared with full confidence, for the two Bundesliga match that will face the top team only luck can give good results for Leipzig, without luck they will only suffer defeat.

Leipzig are currently struggling with their form and it is like to continue in their upcoming fixtures, they will be playing against Aston Villa in their next game in the Champions League and it will not be an easy game for them and since they have not picked up any points yet i don’t think they will be focused on the Champions League again. They should be focused on the Bundesliga, they have two tough games against the 1st position and 2nd position team so they are likely to lose both Matches but it will be difficult to win both games in this condition they are. They will be playing Frankfurt at home so they have a little advantage to get a point but against Bayern Munich it will be a difficult match for them.

Yeah, I know people will start thinking that Bayer Leverkusen will be able to have the advantage of a good performance due to the results of them knocking out Bayern Munich in the DFB Pokal, which we all know that Bayer Leverkusen is playing with a nice performance, no doubt. But the reason why we always see that their performance is not convincing to us is due to their last season performance. We all thought that they would be able to perform better this season, but the reverse is the case. That is why we are thinking their performance is not good, but on a more serious note, Bayern Munich's performance this season is far better than that of Bayer Leverkusen, no doubt.
Bayern Munich should forget about the DFB Pokal competition this season and should only focus on the bigger competitions such as the Champions League and also the Bundesliga because both of those big competitions still have time for Bayern Munich to achieve it this season after Bayern Munich failed to beat Bayer Leverkusen in the small competitions such as the DFB Pokal. But apart from all that, for now I also don't think that Bayern Munich is worse than Leverkusen because in the Bundesliga Bayern Munich still has a better advantage than Leverkusen at the moment.Munich is not bad, and Leverkusen is not better than Munich. There is a fact that their defeat of Leverkusen in the DBF Cup was because they suffered a disadvantage from the start of the match.
Bundesliga and the Champions League will be more important, especially since they are currently still ahead in points in the Bundesliga standings which I think will benefit them. Munich has not been defeated in 13 matches and it will be very comfortable for them if they maintain their performance until the end of the season. Leverkusen is not as good as last season, so it is an advantage for Munich who is currently still leading.
Dortmund once again failed to capitalize on another good chance, which isn't good at all and should be considered a bad mistake by them. Now they are not even fifth, they dropped down to sixth place and this isn't good looking at all. I sense that they may end up firing Coach Nuri Sahin before the season is over, and he may have to go back to Turkey to manage again.
It was a huge jump for him anyways, maybe he wasn't really that much ready and that could be the main reason why they saw something like this. Dortmund apparently need someone much more ready. Plus, another problem they have is that they sold so many great players, and yet they didn't really get anyone that much special, they did try to get some decent names, but none of them were that big.
I remember them having Jude, Sancho, Haaland all together, and now look at them, they have nobody that could be that big anymore, and that is why I feel like they may not be doing that well. For them to do better, the team has to remember, spending money on future stars is the key thing that made them who they are, if they end up not doing that then they need to go back to doing what they know best and get those future star potential players.

Since I have seen their performance in the last five league matches, I believe that Dortmund will not be able to compete and win the Bundesliga this season, but I am confident that they will finish in the top four this season and qualify for the Champions League the next season. But the league title, I don't think they can achieve that trophy 12 point gap to top the league, and bayern Munich are doing well in the league competition, and with how they are playing, you will definitely know that Kompany need the league this season, and they won't make any mistakes to lose points and allow another club to overtake them in the league table.
What I do know right now is that Dortmund is performing better in the Champions League than in the league, and if they continue to try, they will be able to play in the Champions League finals for the second time, and they will most likely win if they perform well on the pitch. Since Dortmund has missed two obvious chances to win the Bundesliga in two seasons, allowing Bayern Munich to triumph, I believe it will be extremely difficult for Dortmund to win the title again.

It is definitely going to be very hard for Dortmund to actually win the Bundesliga title. first of all, they have fallen behind a lot. So they are probably not going to be able to recover. Especially with the performance that they are showing right now. The point difference is just a little too much. And they will have to perform very well, like making sure they win every match. And even then they will have to pray that other teams loses, teams that are ahead of them. Winning the league title seems to be a pretty unrealistic expectation for them.
I also want to say that even though they are performing well in the Champions League compared to how they are performing in the Bundesliga, they will still probably not be able to win the Champions League. Because in that competition they are literally going up against the best teams in the world. So when they are not able to do well in the Bundesliga, it is probably not wise to think that they are going to do well when they go into deeper competition in the Champions League.

Leverkusen played great last season with the help of Xabi Alonso. We were all very surprised to see such a great performance of Leverkusen. We considered Leverkusen as a mediocre team. But Leverkusen was very strong last season. Leverkusen did not lose a single match in the Bundesliga throughout the season. Leverkusen won the Bundesliga title unbeaten.
Since Leverkusen did not lose a single match last season, we thought that Leverkusen would compete hard for the title this season as well. But Leverkusen's performance was a bit erratic at the beginning of this season. Because of this, Leverkusen has fallen behind in the title race. Leverkusen is still 7 points behind Bayern Munich. At the moment, Leverkusen's performance is stable. However, Leverkusen will probably not be able to compete for the title.
Bundesliga and the Champions League will be more important, especially since they are currently still ahead in points in the Bundesliga standings which I think will benefit them. Munich has not been defeated in 13 matches and it will be very comfortable for them if they maintain their performance until the end of the season. Leverkusen is not as good as last season, so it is an advantage for Munich who is currently still leading.
With the quality of the individuals Leverkusen have I already thought they would be a one-season wonder like Leicester when they won the Premier League. Leverkusen's performance last season was absolutely fantastic and they almost managed to have an unbeaten season in all competitions. At that time with the players they had who were of average quality but the strategy implemented by Alonso made them a very solid team. But this season their performance has returned to being average. I think with the quality of players Leverkusen have it is very difficult to maintain good performance in every match. Other teams have read their tactics and of course have anticipated it.I wouldn't say Leverkusen's performance as a team that won the Bundesliga trophy last season is mediocre at the moment.

Wolfsburg came from behind to defeat Mainz at home. Both teams gave everything to win the match. Wolfsburg won 4-3 with a goal in extra time and got 3 points. With Dortmund also dropping points, they moved up to 5th place.
Hoffenheim and Freiburg drew 1-1. Hoffenheim want to climb up the table but they can't quite manage it. Freiburg needs to finish in the top 6 to qualify for the European Cups. It will be difficult for them because their opponents are strong.

That was hell of a game honestly.
Mainz got ahead 3 times during the game but despite that Wolfsburg made it to the victory. I really love to watch Wolfsburg's dedicated performance on these weeks.I mean this consistent performance has lasted 4 weeks so far and it carried them to the 5th position in the standings. It is a winning streak of 4 games and next time they are away against Freiburg. Do you think they will move on like this again?
Wolfsburg were near the relegation zone at the end of the previous season you know. Therefore it is a huge progress.
