Leverkusen journey to compete to win the Bundesliga trophy is almost fruitful, they are just a few more steps from reaching the ladder of success, so they can celebrate all night long. Leverkusen has the opportunity to win the trophy in the most amazing way, by going undefeated throughout the season, it is very appropriate for everyone to praise their performance, especially their manager Xabi Alonso. In Europe top five leagues, we rarely see a journey to win trophies like that carried out by Xabi Alonso and his squad, which even next season they will not necessarily be able to repeat. There are only three matches left before Leverkusen will realize their dream, lock in the championship trophy and break Bayern Munchen dominance.
Union Berlin, Werder Bremen and Dortmund will be Leverkusen next opponents, these three teams need a miracle to beat Leverkusen, so betting on Leverkusen winning is a safe choice. If there are no obstacles, then the championship celebration will take place at Signal Iduna Park, namely Dortmund headquarters. Edin Terzic and his squad will not let this decisive match go easily, they will never be willing to have their stadium become the venue for Leverkusen celebration. Because on the other hand, they have been trying for more than a decade but have always failed to win the trophy from Bayern Munchen, while Leverkusen under the leadership of Xabi Alonso can do what they cannot do.
Currently, Leverkusen's consistency has put them in the top contending spots for the Bundesliga title. And it's so certain with just few games games to determine the victor, there's every certainty that there will be change of hands this season. Definitely they've held and will hold onto the pressure for a while and for Leverkusen, they are not resilient in pursuing that major aim. Alonso and his squad aren't giving up and weekly they put up a whole different energy towards that trophy race.
Comparing Xabi's abiliy based on his performances with his team, it'll be fair to admit his superiority in skillset. Leverkusen when Xabi took over had to start from scratch to build up to where they are now. So far Xabi, he has been a good boss and his methods have worked perfectly for Leverkusen. One would wonder how he managed to put up such feat for the team considering the spot he picked them from. It's one quality that can definitely be found in a good manager.
Leverkusen have been impressive in all rounds and it's not surprising that they're now better than some already grounded teams. It only means that Xabi has a unique managing quality which can be of essence in bigger teams too. I believe he's still got good plans for the German team, which will still be manifested good. In the Europa League, there's been top contending teams from the start till the current stage of the contest.
Even though days back, the playoffs stage was concluded and there we saw few teams earn advancement tickets. Well from the beginning of the tournament, we know that it'll only be the tough teams that'd survive. Also predicting the winner this season would be hard as there are a number of tough teams to pick from. The highest we can do is to just analyze these teams based on their overtime performances this season and bringing that in the picture, the highest probable winner would be Leverkusen, then Liverpool and any other team behind. In essence it's safe to say that if the draws are favourable, then Liverpool would battle with Leverkusen in the final game of the tournament.
