Bayer Leverkusen had a narrow escape against Mainz today. None of us saw this coming, really a challenging game for Leverkusen but they finally break through with making 2-1 on the scoresheet. Xabi Alonso keeps making good unbeaten runs this season and he's aiming to lift the Bundesliga with unbeaten runs, that particular record he's maintaining will boost his stats as a coach and also the team. Before we would know it, elite teams all over Europe will trap in for his signature and making gigantic offer. But the Xabi Alonso we all know will reject every single one of them and focused on building Leverkusen.
Wow, it looks like this is Bayer Leverkusen's season because being unbeaten in all competitions is not an easy thing, especially since they are with a coach who actually doesn't have much experience, but what will happen to them if Xabi Alonso really leaves this club next season? It is very possible that there will be a significant decline in performance because Bayer's current factor is Xabi's cleverness in combining all of his squad.
Winning 2-1 against Mainz makes Bayer even stronger at the top of the standings and will probably put heavy pressure on Bayern Munich in the match against Leipzig because now the point difference is 9.
Union Berlin will host Heidenheim and the home team has a chance to win because this opponent is not strong enough when playing away matches because they only managed to win 2x and draw 3x in all away matches, and this is a big opportunity for Union Berlin to continue to improve their ranking and maybe they will start to get closer Top 10 if they manage to get three points in this match.
Meanwhile, Stuttgart, who will face one of the weak teams this season Koln, will have a great chance of winning with a big score. Stuttgart is a very productive team and home games are games where they often score a lot of goals and it is very possible that they will do it again, especially Koln, a team whose defense is weak, my prediction is that Stuttgart will win with a score of 3-0 or more.
