Bayern Munich has a pretty high chance of winning the trophy again this season, Eintracht Frankfurt as their closest rivals seem unable to put significant pressure. I even think Kompany squad unbeaten record will be maintained in the future, and they will most likely avoid a surprising defeat at the domestic level. However, entering the second half of the season, Bayern Munich efforts to maintain the top of the standings are getting harder, each team will clearly take advantage of the January transfer market to increase their strength. I hope Leverkusen and Dortmund can rise in the future, and join the trophy race.
Yeah, the gap is now four points even after the draw, I am pretty sure that they are not going to be too much of a problem for Bayern Munich at all, they are doing fine but they are not really doing THAT much better.
Also Frankfurt is doing great at Europa League too, which means they will go deep this season, and that means a lot of games, plus with the domestic cup as well, players will get to 50+ games, and that's causing fatigue for players, the ones like Bayern that have deep enough squad for the league, won't face the same issues, but Frankfurt is barely great with their starting team, so if they get a few injuries then things could change a lot and we could end up with a bigger gap the more game is played up.
