The match wasn’t supposed to be as easy as you put it out because Heidenheim aren’t just any other club this season, yes they might have been just promoted to the Bundesliga but they have become a strong force to face. They currently sit 9th on the Bundesliga standings which isn’t a position usually occupied by newly promoted clubs but they showed why they are there. They are not regarded as just any bottom club but a mid table club capable of causing any upset in the league.

Dortmund on the other hand have been very poor this season not that they have been far too behind from the European places but rather they are not seriously challenging for the tittle like I expected them to do this season. They have failed to win some games that they should be wining and this is what is affecting them. I don’t count them again as title contenders but rather top 4 chasers.

It is very unfortunate that Dortmund failed to get full points against Heidenheim in this match, the match ended in a goalless draw.
In fact, Dortmund controlled the match in both the first and second half and indeed Heidenheim's defense in this match was very solid and did not even make any fatal mistakes. Of course, this draw is very profitable for Heidenheim because they managed to climb to 9th place with 24 points.

Dortmund played well, they continued to press trying to break the deadlock to score a goal, but again Heidenheim's defenders performed well, even goalkeeper Kevin also appeared impressive in this match because he managed to ward off kicks from outside the penalty box from Dortmund players several times. This draw made Dortmund even more points behind Bayern Muncen and Bayer Leverkusen. I think Dortmund will no longer think about competing for the Bundesliga title, their focus is now focused on staying in the top four and the Champions League. Dortmund made me lose the bet.

The match was supposed to have been easy for Dortmund to grab three points but they were unable to after drawing the match against Heidenheim. They played a very good game and everything was in their favour, from the possession to shots, to shots on target but they were not able to convert even one goal from all the opportunities they had. Dortmund will have to remain on fourth position for now sharing the same points with Stuttgart who are one game behind and share the same points with them. It was a shame they had to share point with a team like Heidenheim at this critical time, this shows how weak the Dortmund team are and could lose the opportunity to go for the champions league competition.

Yes, Tuchel and Mourinho are two good coaches. But good with the previous era. Currently, the tactics of these two coaches are too old. It is no longer suitable for European football. Bayern Munich is having a season of shaky confidence for many reasons. The first and most obvious is the challenge from Bayer Leverkusen - the team that is flying high under the leadership of Xabi Alonso. We can see the influence of a coach on a team. In terms of Bayer Leverkusen players, they cannot be compared to Bayern Munich players. But under Mr. Tuchel's hands, Bayern Munich has never been truly stable. Particularly in the Bundesliga, they must work hard to retain the throne. I don't understand why they are failing in this tournament. The reason must come from coach Tuchel.

Bayern Munich's leadership should consider and seize the opportunity when Klopp is about to quit his job at Liverpool. Klopp is the most suitable coach for Bayern Munich right now. I support that happening, even though these are just rumors.

Jose Mourinho should just take some quality time off the football space, he has seen too many failures in the past few months, he should go take a warm sit and reflect on his failures, that way he can learn new tactics to face new coaches with updated tactical and better approach of the football.
I really don't want to know if his move to Saudi Arabian Premier League Competition would come to reality.

For Thomas Tuchel, he got lucky last season Borrussia Dortmund didn't make good use of the chances they had to win the Bundesliga League Competition.
This season I'm kinda certain that he'll still miss out on the league tittle to Bayern Leverkusen.

It is not so much about whether or not Dortmund has difficulties to score a goal or not. I think the bigger problem here is the elephant in the room, the fact that Dortmund keeps talking about the title while in reality they are not a team that has a good chance to win it. It is too often the same problem for them and their performance level is too erratic. See how consistently Leverkusen needs to perform to keep the distance between them and Bayern. They can afford a single draw and Bayern is immediately there. Two consecutive draws and the lead would be back to Bayern. If Dortmund wants to win the title again, the win against Heidenheim is non-negotiable.

I don't think so. I can understand if Dortmund got difficulty to score goals. Heidenheim has a quite strong defense, they often got a draw against stronger teams. They even could win against Freiburg and VfB Stuttgart. And we don't forget in matchday 3, Dortmund also got a draw against Heidenheim in their home. So, it is not a very surprising thing if the result of the match today is a draw again. The most interesting thing of the match today is no goals made by both teams. It means both teams have no sharp strikers. For Dortmund, Niclas Füllkrug failed to show his quality as a top striker in this match. And Dortmund also failed to overtake VfB Stuttgart in the 3rd place.

Today's game against Heidenheim showed Dortmund's biggest problem: as soon as an opponent stands in the back and defends tightly and only relies on counterattacks, Dortmund find it incredibly difficult to play their game. That has been happend several times this season so far. Dortmund only play well when they have open spaces and can counter-attack quickly. If they don't have that, then games turn out like today.

Dortmund in previous seasons have been very much active and eager to chase the trophy. Although at the moment the chase isn't off, they've still got every chance in store to prove themselves. Their game against Heidenheim is ongoing and it's technically a determinant of how good they've been.

 They've had scaly strides from the start of the season till now, they've managed to scale through in the UCL, no one knows their fate in the next round but there's certainty that there's difference in their performances now and then too. They're a good team that just needs to find back their balance, there confidence level has dropped big and corrections needs to be made soon enough too. There's no time out to let go off winning chances, it'll keep drawing them back.

In the last eleven seasons in the German Bundesliga, Bayern Munich have successfully won the German league title and this season again the fans of the club are still expecting Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel to help steer the club to glory again. Failure to help Bayern Munich win the German Bundesliga will surely cost Thomas Tuchel his job so on other to remain at the club beyond the current season, he must help the club win the league title and that I think will be very difficult considering the fact that Bayer Leverkusen who are their strongest rival for the league title this season are absolutely in great shape and form

Talking about the future of Bayern from the coaching conditions, it does not rule out the possibility that Tuchel will not last long, especially now that there is news that Tuchel has been linked to Barcelona even though it is only a rumor but the dominant effect is definitely Bayern who will prepare to find a new coach for their future.

Even like that I'm not sure Mou will be the first choice in this case. Mou is still one of the coaches who is always discussed even though in terms of performance he has reduced from his prime in the past few seasons. But for Mou and Bayern it will be very difficult because seeing from the scheme that Mou always does and Bayern's philosophy seems to be the opposite for now.
Mou always likes conservative methods by doing an old-fashioned style of play and that is the opposite of what Bayern always do nowadays.
There are other rumors about Klopp for now but these still can't be validated because after all these rumors are growing because of several things such as traffic in particular.

The quality and price of a player has got a whole lot to do with his performance so far at a team through the season or for as long as he has stayed in the team so it's usual that these players are rated and priced by their performance so far which could entails possible good potential in such players.

The number of goals scored I'm a number nof matches followed by assist he's made so far and speed all these co tributes to the price of such players. Sometimes their present team do offer to increase their wage and pay them them much higher than others may want to offer there by making them priceless and not affordable to other teams who are trying to come bid for them and in some cases these teams further raise their price especially if their is a position they feel crucial for such player to come occupy .

If we see Bayern lose out this year, which would not be impossible then I would say that it would be crystal clear for the future of Tuchels career. I am not saying that he would not be hired anywhere again, but I bet that he will not be hired by any big place ever again. He would sort of turn into Mourinho, a manager that used to be good but not good anymore and won't be hired by big teams anymore.

Mourinho of course had much much more achievements before he started to get worse. Bayern is not the level to drop to like Saudi Arabia or something right away, he will still find some mid level team first at Europe but then I think he will get worse and worse. He has to win the title this season for his entire life to be shaped accordingly.

The cheap price for a player is of course also influenced by the quality and way he played in the old team, so no one can deny this. Because usually when a player has very good quality and is reluctant to be let go by his old team, of course the offers that come from other teams who want to buy him can also be bigger as long as he is still healthy enough and still young enough in terms of age.

Things like this are not a big problem actually because this as I said before could be just an excuse so that not many media focus too much on him so that this interferes with the situation Klopp faces in finishing the season.
Don't forget that last season Spalletti also said something like that by talking that he wanted to take a break from coaching and spend time with his family so he decided to leave Napoli but within a few weeks he was back at work and coaching the Italian national team.

This is also not impossible for Klopp because after all when business is used as a benchmark as long as there is a good enough offer then why not because in the end it all comes back to the offer in terms of contract and salary in the end.

The decision to take a break can be postponed so that indeed in this case nothing is certain in the end.

For me, the two teams that will compete in a few moments have almost the same similarities in their five matches in the Bundesliga. Heidenheim, who will currently compete as the home team, has only won two of their 5 matches. even so, the last three matches they played ended in a draw. meanwhile, Dortmund, the team coached by Edin Terzic, only had two draws previously. after that, Dortmund started a three-game winning streak. so, these two teams are both unbeaten in their last five matches. But, that's not the problem we're going to discuss.

IMO, I am quite sure that Edin Terzic's team will continue its positive trend and win over Heidenheim. Referring to several sources that can be my reference, it looks like there will be 2 options that Edin Terzic will implement in this match. Terzic could have used a classic 4-3-3 pattern, or a 4-2-2-2 pattern. which means, there is a striker duo on the front line, namely Fullkrug and Maukoko. If the pattern is classic, it means Fullkrug remains a pure sticker. what is certain is that currently Dortmund is motivated to shift Stuttgart's position, which is in 3rd place.
While the home team, Heidenheim is predicted to use a 4-2-3-1 pattern. in fact, as the home team, Heidenheim certainly wants maximum results. at least, the worst option with minor results. aka, share 1 point. But my estimation, Dortmund will win this match. at least odds @1.76, ideal enough to choose Dortmund in this match.

Dortmund should win this one easily, Heidenheim is a very small team but they had a good run lately. They have 6 games unbeaten streak, that have to end some time and it could be today. Dortmund won their last 3 games with high scores, they have no problem about scoring. They only conceded one goal in these three matches so they don't have any problem in defense as well. All signs show that Dortmund should win the game, odds also reflect that. They need to be closer to Leverkusen and Bayern as the point gap is too much now.

Actually, Bryan Zaragosa will be brought in by Bayern Munich at the end of this season, but the injuries to Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman made Tuchel quite dizzy and forced Bayern Munich to immediately bring in Bryan Zaragosa from Granada, I think there must be a strong reason for Tuchel to recruit Bryan Zaragosa to replace Coman current position, from the existing statistics it turns out that Bryan Zaragosa is not a bad player and in fact he is one of the players who has the ability to play in several positions and even if Gnabri and Coman recover later, Tuchel will be able to utilize Bryan Zaragosa in various fragile positions , from the existing data, Bryan Zaragosa can play in the playmaker position, left wing and even striker so with his abilities it will actually provide benefits for Bayern, currently Bryan Zaragosa is still very young and of course he will be a long-term investment that will provide there are many advantages for Bayern Munich in future especially  Munich got it at a very cheap price.

Yeb , Heidenheim isnt that bad and always good for some surprises results against other teams.
For sure Dortmund has the favorite Role in this game but we know that how the things can be go with that.
Normaly BVB should be win it today and thats why placed my bet there , if they lose that would be very disappointed.

Bayern Munich still left from Leverkusen on current domestic league standings position, recruit new players give more option for Thomas Tuchel make improving with Bayern Munich performance with have many matches left get chance return to the top position and keep defend Bundesliga tittle for this season. In this month, Bayern Munich had busy schedule match not only must focus with three points achieving in domestic league but also has important match against Lazio in Champion League.

Crucial schedule match for Bayern Munich in the early this month, after facing Gladbach on tomorrow, Bayern waiting for Bayern Leverkusen for the first standings hunt and few days later will face Lazio on first leg of Champion League match. Has any ideas for Bayern Munich fans which one match have to make rotation will focus on Champion League and give chance for Leverkusen get win in domestic league match?
