What was really surprising was the opposite, Stuttgart. imagine, they were in the play-off relegation zone last season, right? but this season really has extraordinary progress. Currently he is even in the top 3 and entered UCL. This is a truly extraordinary achievement.
In fact, the difference between the points they got this season and last season is very large, this time they have managed to reach 34 points. This really is a record too.

Yes, that definitely has been a great improvement story from this Stuttgart team. And now I hope they will be able to continue the improvement.
Exactly, consistency here is very important. Moreover, next season Stuttgart will also compete in a bigger league, the Champions League. Of course there are many things that they have to prepare more maturely and stronger, especially their players. Because the competition will definitely get tighter. We'll see how their management will handle this well in preparation for next season.

This is like Leverkusen, consistency in next season to be even better than this season must also be optimized. There is no doubt about their performance this season, it is brilliant. But what about next season, it might be different, where the pressure will definitely be different.

Is there a chance for Dortmund to finish in the fourth position?
There is still a chance, if Dortmund can continue to win against Mainz and also Damstart and they must have a bigger chance of winning. And on the other side, Leipzig had to suffer defeat. But yes, whether this will happen or not. What is certain is that this time, Dortmund is in super happy condition, because they managed to get into the FINAL CHAMPIONS LEAGUE this season. where this is really beyond predictions from the start of the season. Look at how happy they are this time.

If Leverkusen were in the Champions League, I think they would have barely survived without defeat. Being in the European league was an important advantage for them in their undefeated series. Rome's luck did not change either and they could not avoid losing against Leverkusen in Rome. Let's see if Leverkusen can continue this unbeaten streak next year.
The UEFA Champions League is different from Bundesliga. Winning the Bundesliga was a regular thing for them to put in place. Leverkusen was already in possession of tight spot and have become one of the promising team. Bayer Leverkusen are nothing to be comparable to any elite side. Leverkusen are in form and have deliver quite exceptional abilities towards their opponents and obtaining good points on table. Xabi Alonso is a wonderful coach but thinking of maintaining these amazing form till next season, it's not possible.

Leverkusen had a perfect performance during this season with Xabi Alonso and their performance was amazing. They are still unbeaten while the season is nearly over and they played in three different tournaments while still there's not a team to beat Xabi Alonso and his players.
We are going to see Leverkusen in the Chmaomios League in the next season and they should play against much stronger teams. I can't wait to see how they are going to perform against teams like Real Madrid.

Two German teams might get to the finals of this season's champions league if Bayern succeeds in eliminating Madrid from the semi finals of the Champions league tournament.Dortmund have succeeded in securing a place in the finals already,and are waiting for the team that will win tomorrow between Bayern and Madrid.But I guess they all will be hoping for Bayern to win because if Madrid wins,it will be a very tough match,which they know.I know Dortmund isn't a small club,they have the capability to win too,but Madrid are too good,and that might make Dortmund tremble,but I'm still hoping Dortmund wins this tournament.

The atmosphere is quite tense in Paris, PSG fans will fill the match tonight just like Dortmund fans in Germany, they rumbled and filled the stadium, maybe PSG will close ranks tonight too to break the mentality of the Dortmund players.
Tonight will determine who deserves to enter the final session of the champions league this season, whether the representative of the bundes league is Dortmund or PSG, just 2:0 can get the position.
Honestly, Dortmund's mentality in the UCL is much stronger, especially when they competed at the PSG stadium this time. Really, they were really tested and finally managed to do it again. They were even able to make the expressions of PSG fans shocked by their goal again. Meanwhile, on the other hand, even though PSG was able to dominate the ball, they were still unable to score the ball. That is Enrique's weakness, he focuses more on dominating the ball.

This actually happened. Dortmund, in the Bundesliga, we know very well that their performance is not good enough. Even now, they are still struggling and are only in 5th place. In fact, at least they will be runners up. However, this season, we often underestimate Dortmund because their performance has really declined in the domestic league.

However, at UCL, it is much different. They can handle it very well. Even when I saw them enter the semi-finals, it was a huge appreciation. Moreover, if he makes it to the final, it's awesome.

With what Bayern Leverkusen has shown this season in all competitions, they can match Real Madrid and Manchester City shoulder-to-shoulder if they have the chance to play against Real Madrid and Manchester City this season. We have seen how clubs that Bayern Leverkusen is greater than this season have scored goals against Real Madrid and Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League competition, so there is a possibility that Bayern Leverkusen can beat Real Madrid and Manchester City if they play a match this season.
What you say is more than impossible if you want it this season, because it can only happen next season when Bayer Leverkusen plays in the Champions League and that would certainly be very interesting for everyone to see when the greatest teams of this season face each other. with teams like Real Madrid and Manchester City who are generally also quite strong in competitions like the Champions League. But before that, everyone still wants to see Bayer Leverkusen win the UEL trophy this season because that will also be quite interesting to see.
The problem is that it depends on how Xabi is managed because eventually after winning the championship and the season starts to change sometimes there are some new adjustments that sometimes it becomes a problem for the club internally. Let's take an example from Serie A where when a club wins the scudetto like Milan in the last 2 seasons and Napoli in the last season we can see about some gaps that occur when the new season starts so it is possible that something like this happens to Leverkusen because we cannot predict with certainty even if this season they played well but there is no guarantee that next season they do with the same situation.

The hope is for Leverkusen to continue their positive trend but to do that there needs to be greater chemistry and strengthening of the players in order to survive because for now we can see some of the players that Leverkusen currently have are starting to be looked at by several clubs because of their good performance so when this happens and some adjustments are made to fill the void it could backfire.
I hope for something good next season for Leverkusen but I don't want to expect too much just want to enjoy what they and Xabi will do to prepare for next season with the capital of this season's extraordinary results.
I don't think Bayern Leverkusen will stay this solid next season. Yes they have managed to convince Xabi Alonso to stay more longer at their club and he has made it open that he is continuing at Leverkusen, but I don't think they are going to do the same to all the player that are part of this team to stay together for next season, I don't see that coming. Some of those players have childhood dreams to play for big clubs like Barcelona and real Madrid, Manchester United and other big clubs out there. What happens when these clubs come calling for their services, they will go without thinking twice. The inability of Bayern Leverkusen to keep hold of this starting eleven next season, it will definitely going to have an impact on them.
This is going to be a problem that Bayern Leverkusen management and Xabi Alonso should figure out how to solve so that Bayern Leverkusen can keep their best players and also perform well next season. If those big clubs you mentioned come for any of the Bayern Leverkusen players, they will not think twice about joining them because they will want to get a better contract and also want the opportunity to win the UEFA Champions League trophy. Even Bayern Munich will want to sign Bayern Leverkusen's best players in the summer just to make them perform less next season in the Bundesliga so that they win the Bundesliga title without a rivalry with Bayern Leverkusen.

There is a fierce battle for both the relegation zone and 7th place. In the ongoing battle between Mainz and Union Berlin, Union Berlin is 1 point ahead. With Mainz's draw away from home this week, this point gap could have closed even more. Union Berlin lost 4-3 at home against Bochum. With Bochum's win in this match, we can say that they are a little more comfortable in the relegation zone.

It was a very exciting match because PSG, unlike usual, would get defeated, PSG would usually always win in every match they faced. Kylian Mbappé could not play well because Borrusia Dortmund always controlled Kylian Mbappé's steps so that it was not easy for him to get the ball well until the match ended. PSG had difficulty scoring goals.
Before the match started, I also thought that Borrussia Dortmund would make it difficult for PSG and it turned out that actually happened in that match. And in the second leg I think PSG will also try hard to beat Borrussia Dortmund at home because PSG only lost by one goal in the first leg. But because their match is in the UCL, of course both of them will not be so easy to win because the second leg match is a super important match for them so they will give all their abilities in the second leg later.
Actually, PSG did not play badly in the match in Germany. They took a lot of positions, Mbappe had shots that hit the post, but it doesn't happen when there are no goals. They will try to win in France today. A vital day for Dortmund. They are very close to reaching the final, but they must not make mistakes. Mbappe will also want to win the UCL cup without leaving the team. That's why we need to get to the final first.
The previous match was quite fierce and we know that PSG got a narrow defeat with only one goal in the 36th minute, they missed and after that Dortmund focused on defense to get a victory even though they didn't have many goals, it opened up space for Dortmund to be calmer in tonight's match.

The atmosphere is quite tense in Paris, PSG fans will fill the match tonight just like Dortmund fans in Germany, they rumbled and filled the stadium, maybe PSG will close ranks tonight too to break the mentality of the Dortmund players.
Tonight will determine who deserves to enter the final session of the champions league this season, whether the representative of the bundes league is Dortmund or PSG, just 2:0 can get the position.

In fact, if Dortmund really wants to get a big chance of qualifying for the final round, it's quite easy, namely being able to hold this match to a draw, of course Dortmund can get away with the aggregate score they have, but it's a little impossible to beat PSG because if you see how Mbappe reacts, PSG's mainstay player starts to smile comfortably at home and I really doubt Dortmund can qualify for the final round.

I was too ambition and the results were very bad even though Mbappe looked very confident in the match apparently could not give any reply and I just realized that Dortmund's experience was far greater that could give mental better than PSG.
Actually, PSG and supporters will feel very disappointed with the failure, but in fact Mbappe also cannot appear as usual because competition in the Champions League is very fierce and all the clubs that qualify will continue to try to get rid of their opponents.
Only the disappointment that I saw only PSG could not take advantage of existing opportunities and Mbappe as a reliable scorer also failed to help PSG to qualify for the final round.
Not only that, but the bettors who are very confident if PSG will qualify for the next round also experienced a very big disappointment because it lost the bet.

This is 100% true, I do not remember any team playing like this. To be fair even treble winners City had losses all season long last year, every team has losses here and there, no team goes unbeaten all season long, but Leverkusen may do that for all competitions all together.

Considering they have just Roma at Europa and then whoever is the winner in Atalanta vs Marseille, that seems like it could be something they would have easy time winning, and considering the finalist for dfk pokal is a second division team (which is a big deal that they are at finals kudos to them) I think that would be even simpler. I do not see why and how they would lose this season, I mean maybe they won't care and lose to some small team at the league, not sure.
Leverkusen in this season is really damn lucky.

They become really strong in this season and they're playing in Europa League instead of Champions League (less competitive). If Leverkusen was playing in Champions League, I really doubt they won't lose till now. Any teams which qualified to knockout phase are strong, although Real Madrid is unbeatable in Champions League.
If Leverkusen were in the Champions League, I think they would have barely survived without defeat. Being in the European league was an important advantage for them in their undefeated series. Rome's luck did not change either and they could not avoid losing against Leverkusen in Rome. Let's see if Leverkusen can continue this unbeaten streak next year.

Bayern Leverkusen and Real Madrid are no doubt the possible teams that is expected to play the UEFA super cup next because literally, the two teams have shown strong determination in the European competitions so far and it wouldn't be a thing of surprise if the both teams win the respective European trophies of UEFA champions league and the Europa league because they have been resilient since the European competitions began.

For sure if Bayern Leverkusen still wants to be in the limelight of major competitions next season they need to sign more quality players and avoid selling some of their important players that is the only way they can still continue in awesome performance next season. I think Leverkusen will make good impact in the champions league next season because they are a very good and formidable team now so they are equal to the task ahead of them.

I would love to see these sides in the Super Cup Finals at the start of next season. With Xabi Alonso returning to show Florentino Perez that one day he will be capable of handling a hug club like Real Madrid and I will love to see that happening.
But damn, this is a ballsy prediction from you. I'm just here laughing out loud, it could happen snf at the same time not happen, until 90 minutes of the game between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, my lips are sealed. Lol. Real Madrid should be solid at hoke anyways with the fans and the crowd buzzing for that win at home.

For Bayern Leverkusen, I'm certain they're already having the treble this season. It's just a matter of time until we see it happening. I'm so proud of Xabi Alonso, at times I picture myself managed by him.He will go on to be replacement for top coaches like Carlo Ancellotti, Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola when they get done finally.

For Bayern Munich, they have declined even from last season, Julian Nagelsmann wasn't so bad but they lacked a goalscorer when Robert Lewandoski left for Barcelona. If Erik Ten Hag move fails, then they should focus on Antonio Conte.

I hope that the Erik Ten Hag move fails because he is not going to be an improvement for Bayern Munich for sure. We are already watching him absolutely destroy the Man United team and I think he is going to do something similar with the Bayern Munich team as well. I actually don't understand why he was the first person that was approached by Bayern Munich to be honest. They definitely had better options. And I think if they can Jose Mourinho it is probably going to be great for them. If he is available I mean.

And why don't they approach Zidane? He is a great coach and will definitely be an improvement compared to all of the coaches that we are talking about. I don't think they should actually get anyone from Ten Hag or Conte.

The thing that I thought was unexpected last week was Bayern Munich's defeat against Stuttgart and they did not hesitate to punish Bayern Munich with a 2 goal difference. I think it will be an exciting match when these two strong teams can show a goal-based game but it looks like Bayern Munich has run out of fuel and has to accept defeat.
Bayern Munich experienced something new from Stuttgart team because they played Bayern Munich to disgrace them with goals, and they also played with Bayer Leverkusen to be the first team to beat them in this season, for you to know how strong Stuttgart are in this tournament.

It hard for Stuttgart players to give up easily no matter the difficulty they are going through in any game than to apply different strategies to reduce the strength of their opponent to over power them to achieve victory at the end of the game.

Quote
Moreover, I think that Stuttgart will finish in 2nd place rather than Bayern Munich and even though the difference is still 2 points, I think with the instability that Bayern Munich has, this could happen. It might also be another bad record for Bayern Munich in the last decades if they finish in third place.
If Bayern Munich depend on only UEFA champions league trophy alone, it will make them to drop down to 3rd position in the Bundesliga table because the opportunity Stuttgart use to beaten Bayern Munich last game would have not be there because they reserve strength to withstand Real Madrid in the UEFA semi-final.

Real Madrid will remain the favourite for the champions league trophy as long as they are not eliminated before the final match and Bayern Leverkusen will remain the favourite team of the Europa League trophy until they win the cup because I don’t see them to be eliminated by any team at this stage now. Bayern Munich is still a stumbling block for Real Madrid after drawing their first leg match, so until Bayern Munich is eliminated they can’t be so confidence of winning the title.

If Real Madrid can be able to win Bayern Munich in their returning leg then they can be assured of winning the champions league because neither PSG nor Borussia Dortmund can be able to challenge Real Madrid in the finals so until Real Madrid is able to win Bayern Munich, only then can it be obvious for them to win the champions league and again they need to play more better than they did at Alianz Arena because they almost lost if not that they managed to draw the match.

After Xabi Alonso have decided to stay for another season with Bayern Leverkusen, I don’t think most of those players will want to leave to join other big teams now because he can easily convince them to stay for another year even when they get offer from other big teams. It is to their both advantages of the players stay back and with hope and trust in Xabi, they can achieve more with this club if they continue to play in this way. I expect a more balanced Bayern Leverkusen by next season and that I don’t doubt it not happening.

You can't really say if the players can be retained next season considering the fact that most of them have now been identified as notable player due to their devotion and determination to win their matches this season so bigger teams might come for those players next season and if they are offered a huge amount of money, some of them would consider moving out to other clubs to also test their skills and tactics.

Munich defeat in the match against Stuttgart last week was actually not too surprising, because indeed from before the game started we can guess if Bayern Munich will lose because indeed the squad they fielded in the match was almost all reserve players, facing Stuttgart which is indeed in quite good form and in the current positive trend of course it is a mistake to field a reserve squad,  And indeed finally the match ended in a crushing defeat for Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich, which is currently more focused on the Champions League, certainly does not want to take risks by fielding their main squad in the match, especially since their hopes of competing to become Bundesliga champions have disappeared after Leverkusen successfully celebrated their championship.
Luckily nothing happened to Harry Kane who played full time in this game, I think Tuchel took a big risk by playing Harry Kane without coming off in the second half. Bayern Munich's defeat was because Tuchel was more focused on the second leg of the Champions League, he no longer cared what the results were in this game because he was preparing his squad to face Real Madrid. Harry Kane, who scored the only goal for Munich in this game, is expected to be able to break into his opponent's goal again in the UCL, they really need goals and maintain their defense so that it is not easily penetrated by opposing players so that they can progress to the final round.

For now Bayern Munich has secured a place in the Champions League and with 5 team slots obtained by the Bundesliga this season of course no longer affects Munich position, so I think they are no longer focused on the Bundesliga because indeed with one game left of course there is no longer a team that can win Champions League tickets from Bayern Munich,  So that indeed makes Bayern Munich no longer care about winning or losing in the Bundesliga at this time.

Yes, I will also agree with @Google+ because Bayern Munich is obviously concentrating a lot more on the Champions League right now.

At this point, I do not think they actually care if they finish in the third position or the second in the Bundesliga. The target for them is the Champions League right now and that’s why they are putting all the power and resources behind the Champions League match. They definitely have a genuine chance. Even though almost everyone believes that Real Madrid is going to be the winner of the match and eventually win the Champions League competition. We have seen surprising things happen in the league. maybe Bayern Munich does have a chance. But it is definitely true that they most likely do not care about the Bundesliga anymore, at least not in this season.

The positions in the bottom of the table are getting fixed with Darmstadt leaving to 2.Bundesliga, Koln relegating or at best playing play-offs and Mainz chances to be saved depend a lot of Borussia Dortmund game in my opinion.

I think there is still a great chance for Mainz to actually avoid the relegation this season. They are only one point behind Union Berlin. But the problem is Mainz will have to play against Dortmund and Wolfsburg. On the other hand, Union Berlin will play against Koln and Freiburg. So in comparison, the matches that are remaining for Union Berlin actually look to be easier.

At the same time, Union Berlin also has one one-point advantage over Mainz. So there is definitely a chance for Mainz to actually finish outside the relegation zone. But it is definitely a chance that is very slim. Finishing in the relegation playoffs is definitely very much worse compared to finishing outside the relegation zone altogether.
Previously Mainz actually has good chances to avoiding relegation zone but because only they only gets 3 consecutive draw then Mainz cannot lifted up their current position on relegation zone and last week Mainz only facing Koln which on the paper this should be easy match for them but unfortunately Mainz was failed to win from Koln and indeed maybe if Mainz can win from Dortmund and Wolfsburg probably Mainz can finish at 15th place but if we see from their recent performance i highly doubt Mainz can gets the winning results from those opponents

Especially the match against Dortmund because i am sure Dortmund won't let Mainz to win because Dortmund also still fight for Champion League spots with Leipzig so they really required more points to compete with Leipzig and they also still considers this match very important too so i think Mainz have possibility will be lost from Dortmund next week and in my opinion Mainz realistic target for this season is 16th place which mean play off zone and they still have any chances to survive at Bundesliga through an play off matches later against the team from Bundesliga 2 and indeed it won't be easy for them

Other matches don't matter much anymore because the only goal will be to get through the Champions League. They will play against Wolfsburg next week. This game should bring them an absolute victory so that they can at least give the fans a happy ending. Now the championship is a dream next year and if they make a surprise against Real, the fans will be happier. Of course, it is not easy to beat Real Madrid in Spain.

In essence, Mainz and Union Berlin will still compete to be able to finish in 15th place. But I think, even if one of them whether it is Union Berlin or Mainz fails to get a good result for the remaining two matches, then I think they will still finish in 16th place to enter the play offs. Thus,it can be assumed that Union Berlin and Mainz are still in a fairly good position. Although indeed, in reality Mainz gets a more difficult opponent in the remaining two matches, because Mainz will play against Dortmund and Wolfsburg.But based on existing calculations as well, that Mainz only needs 1 point to keep finishing in 16th place to enter the play offs because ofcourse, considering the opponent Mainz will face, it is clearly a difficult opponent.
