No matter how much problem they may or may not have, Leverkusen is still leading with two points and that's an important situation. I mean think of it like this, they are dealing with something that is looking quite good, and that should be the most important part.
However, it also proves the fact that you need to be near perfect levels to win this league, otherwise Bayern will end up winning it. We have seen them do well enough, and it looked great and right now it looks like we are talking about just two point difference even though Leverkusen is having a wonderful season. People are talking about Tuchel not being great and all just because they are at second place, but there is a big chance they can take over with a single game now.

Köln, Mainz and Darmstadt are at the bottom of the table. Things are not looking good for them at the moment. Köln is at place 16 and has an gap of 5 points to place 15, where Union Berlin is. Union Berlin were able to widen the gap with a win against Darmstadt at last weekend. But Union Berlin still have to play their game against Mainz. This was cancelled due to the winter weather. That will be a 6-point game for both teams.
The three teams at the bottom of the table do not have a long distance in points, so in the long season it is still possible for them to recover, but these three teams have not been able to recover until now and even Köln, Mainz and Darmstadt have not been able to win in 5 matches. the last one.If you look at the overall performance of Köln, Mainz and Darmstadt, I think they have the possibility of being relegated because up to now we haven't seen that they will rise.
I wouldn't say that Koln, Darmstadt and Mainz have no chance of getting out of the relegation zone. Because there is still a long journey ahead. If they can continue this performance, there is still a possibility of getting out of the relegation zone. But it is very difficult.
Union Berlin is only 5 points ahead of Koln. It's not a big gap. Koln team can only get out of the relegation zone if they can win 3/4 matches in a row. But the problem is that the performance of these three teams is very poor. Although Darmstadt's attack is stronger than that of Koln and Mainz, Darmstadt has the weakest defense in the Bundesliga. This is why getting out of the relegation zone is now very challenging for Koln, Mainz and Darmstadt.

If they lose or draw this match, their chances of winning the league title will be reduced. To win this match, they must go all out with high-quality effort. After their last draw with Gladbach, Bayern Munich was able to close the point gap between them, which should pose a threat to their league title hopes. They still have a tough match against Bayern Munich, which will decide the league title; however, before that game, they must maintain their winning streak in order to earn maximum points in league matches.As we have seen in the last few matches, although Leverkusen's players have performed well, they have to fight hard to win matches. A narrow 1-0 win over Augsburg. They won 3-2 against Leipzig and Leverkusen shared the points with Gladbach in the last match. Although Leverkusen's players are performing well, this team is having a lot of problems scoring goals. However, in the next match, the opponent Darmstadt is a relatively weak team. The last team in the points table is Darmstadt. Leverkusen will have no problem winning against such a team. Because Darmstadt's defense is weak. I would say Leverkusen will win this match by a big margin.
On the other hand, I agree with you regarding Leverkusen chances in the next match, it is likely that Xabi fleet will easily beat Darmstadt and secure full points. On paper, the two statistics are like heaven and earth, that's what it looks like on the standings board, and I feel that next week is a good opportunity to re-affirm their position against Bayern Munchen. Apart from that, Darmstadt will most likely have to postpone their target of getting out of the degradation zone, they will become a point source for other teams this season.

On paper there is not the slightest obstacle for Bayer Leverkusen to win in this match, Darmstadt is a very easy meal for Leverkusen. Xabi Alonso must be able to formulate a strategy so that his main players don't get tired because in the next match they will face a big match. The three points will certainly belong to Leverkusen, but big challenges must be overcome in the next match to secure their position. Leverkusen must be able to maintain its performance to maintain its unbeaten record in the Bundesliga this season, at least a draw must be achieved in this game in order to keep its position safe.

Despite the fact that FC Koln, Mainz and Darmstadt are still close gap in points but still, a change in their position would still leave them in the relegation zone . Because after all, Union Berlin which is currently the team just above the relegation zone has also managed to make a pretty good point gap. Therefore, FC Koln, Mainz and Darmstadt do not really have a chance to get out of the relegation zone, because of the wide points gap with the teams outside the relegation zone so of course, that factor will make these three teams likely to stay in the relegation zone probably until the end of the season.

Xabi Alonso will definitely not be satisfied with a draw in this week's match because he remembers that the opponent is quite easy for them. But Leverkusen just can't be careless about this because they have to be able to win in order to maintain their position at the top of the standings. Leverkusen's closest rival will continue to try to win in order to get the first position occupied by Leverkusen, so Xabi Alonso must be able to give the best direction to his players to be able to win even though he also has to keep his main players from getting too tired in the match.

Compared to all of those teams above i think Union Berlin in the good position to survive at Bundesliga 1 because since Nenad Bjelica handle this team Union Berlin has showing significant progress although they got several loses under Nenad Bjelica but basically compared to their performance from their previous manager Union Berlin performance is much better now and the winning results from Darmstadt is very important for them because after this result Union Berlin can avoiding relegation zone because they have 5 difference points above to Koln now but just like i said before Union Berlin this weekend will facing unfavourable situations because they have to fight against Leipzig and in the first met Leipzig can able to humiliate them with huge scores 3-0 so let see it later whether Union Berlin can take revenge from Leipzig or they will lost again 
I was quite surprised by the result of Barcelona's match against Villareal with a final score of 5-3, I saw the replay, which basically the match was dominated by Barcelona, they played the ball well, but their condition was bad, Villareal didn't play the ball that much but they always managed to penetrate Barcelona's defense, I think Barcelona might lose strength in its confidence, To compete in the top 3 this season, Girona must play well and secure every match they play at the end of this season.

They want to continue this as long as the team wins and they have had a very good run. I think they will win this match too. Darmstadt 98 could not win in the last 12 league matches. The team with these statistics has no chance against Leverkusen.
I don't think Leverkusen will be complacent. The names that Xabi Alonso will choose for the first 11 will also be important because the team always plays at a high tempo and this can tire the players. He needs to rest his players in some matches. This match is one of those matches.

Leverkusen will meet and face Darmstadt in the next match, Darmstadt itself is the bottom team which has been confirmed that they will be relegated this season so Leverkusen will win easily and can save full points.
Victory in this match will be very important considering that Bayern Munich has started to really catch up and has narrower difference in points, in this match Leverkusen is the favorite and is the superior team.
If an unsatisfactory result occurs, namely the same as the previous match which ended in draw, then this will be an opening for Bayern Munich to push forward and get first place in the Bundesliga standings.
Leverkusen must be more careful and they must give a game with full performance so that victory remains in their hands as if they were the favorite team at the top.

That is true as Bayern Munchen is keeping up in a great way lately by winning every game and be very narrow in points difference compared to Bayer Leverkussen.I know that every thing is in Leverkussen hand and if they win their games the pressure will be all in Bayern Munchen which can lead to them making mistakes.If Leverkussen makes mistake then it is a sure thing they will most likely lose the title fight as I doubt they would be able to handle the pressure created from such action.

Bayern Leverkusen had a draw in their last game with Bayern Munich having a narrow win against Augsburg, it would reduce the point difference. Bayern Munich are really catching up and it would be a disaster if the league leaders (Bayern Leverkusen) drop out in this title race because many football lovers have tipped them (Bayern Leverkusen) to win the league this season.
Is just two points that's separating both teams and I feel the pressure is going to be on Leverkusen, they're now going to be in a hurry to first get a goal to win any of their games and their style of play might change. I just hope Alonso will be calm and also tell the to play as if they have no one coming to over take them in the league table and if they do so I think they're certain of 3pts in every game, the absence of Victor Boniface is also affecting them.

We can see from Bayern Leverkusen's last games that Victor Boniface's absence is having an impact on them. They have drawn their last game against Borussia Monchengladbach, which is quite surprising. I don't even think they will have much trouble beating a team that is in position 12 in the league. Despite that Leverkusen have played 28 games without a loss this season, they are two points ahead of Bayern Munich, which is unsafe; they really need to win their next game. This two points difference is not safe, Bayern Munich will have a chance to overtake Leverkusen in the league if they lose or draw their next game against Darmstadt.
My favorite team to win the Bundesliga this season is Leverkusen; I want them to break Bayern Munich's all time record because of Dortmund's mistake last season, when they were unable to win the title. Leverkusen have added a new striker from Real Betis, i hope Xabi Alonso will improve his players to win their next game because this one point won't be enough to win the championship.
Köln, Mainz and Darmstadt are at the bottom of the table. Things are not looking good for them at the moment. Köln is at place 16 and has an gap of 5 points to place 15, where Union Berlin is. Union Berlin were able to widen the gap with a win against Darmstadt at last weekend. But Union Berlin still have to play their game against Mainz. This was cancelled due to the winter weather. That will be a 6-point game for both teams.

A two point lead over Bayern Munich is very unsafe for Bayer Leverkusen because the two teams will meet in Week 21 on 11 February. The only problem Bayer Leverkusen faced when facing Borussia Monchengladbach was their lack of clinical skills in completing opportunities, of course this problem is a weakness that must be resolved before they face Bayern Munich at BayArena.Is just two points that's separating both teams and I feel the pressure is going to be on Leverkusen, they're now going to be in a hurry to first get a goal to win any of their games and their style of play might change.

Bayer had 28 chances, whilest Borussia Monchengladbach had 6. This alone shows how one-sided the match was and Leverkusen should have win. They had a lot of clear chances. Their main striker Boniface is injured, so they contracted Borja Iglesias two days ago who will be in the squad for the next game.
Borja Iglesias is only on loan until the end of the season and in fact he is quite old as a Leverkusen striker and this is only an emergency transfer made by Xabi Alonso to complete their attacking line options. If we look at Borja Iglesias' statistics so far with Real Betis, he has appeared in 11 matches but has not recorded a single goal and maybe if you look at Xabi Alonso's vision as a coach, he can develop this player to what the team needs.
Yes, that's true because Leverkusen's draw paved the way for Bayern Munich to shift Leverkusen's position at the top of the standings when the two met. But I am not very optimistic that Bayern Munich can beat Leverkusen easily because currently the morality and spirit of Xabi Alonso's players are quite good and they will definitely try to play for a win or a draw in this crucial match.
Is quite difficult to make predictions with a fairly close point difference because we have seen how Bayern Munich emerged as champions in the Bundesliga because in the last match their competitors drew. This is the worry that Xabi Alonso needs to prepare for because if they lose one or two matches with a draw then Bayern Munich will take advantage of the big opportunity.

Bayern have the mentality of champions, they know how to get through difficult times and they know how to play difficult matches. In the match with Bayer, most likely both teams will score, and there will be a lot of goals scored, but I also think that Bayern will be able to win this match. I am more worried that Tuchel, under the influence of emotions, will not start making stupid substitutions and interfering with the players, no matter how funny it may sound. ))

I hope Leverkusen really breaks Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga as defending champions and I hope Leverkusen wins the title this season. I am confident that Xabi can learn from the mistakes of unsatisfactory results. Of course they know that making another mistake will only make Munich take the top again. standings like he did last season with Dortmund where Munich only won by goal difference even though they had the same points, Xabi Alonso must prepare and maintain the performance of his players from now on for the meeting against Munich in February.

Their main striker Boniface is injured, so they contracted Borja Iglesias two days ago who will be in the squad for the next game.
Injuries hampered elite teams and caused them to slack back in performance. Is Victor Boniface injured? That is not to say that Leverkusen will not maintain their marvelous performance because they are currently the top team in Germany; we have seen these teams evolve to become untouchable. Borrusia Mönchengladbach felt pleased to hold the draw against the Bundesliga's leading club. Bayer Leverkusen attempted their absolute best, but nothing worked out for them; instead, they continue to have adverse outcomes against average teams, but superior opponents easily win them. Bayer Leverkusen have become an elite team since they have been at the top for a long time and have not experienced defeat, but if Bayer's performance weakens, sooner or later Munich will overtake Bayer and return to the top, therefore Xabi must think hard about improving another striker's attack.
~~
With everything that's happened in the German league from the start of the season till now. I'm certain that it won't be an easy ride for Munich. Xabi Alonso is making the manager's seat hot for him and Thomas Tuchel is striving to be meaningful to the team more than he currently is. The team won't want to be submissive to Leverkusen that just came out of the blue, even though it's really not a criteria for Tuchel's job to be retained, he just has to make the team stand out and prevail against Munich. The two sides are currently in thesame range and tempo and assuredly, the next few weeks would be heated up for the Bundesliga as both teams would take every game extremely serious.Tuchel has to regain Munich's pride, there's chance for him to do so, he just needs extra effort while hoping on a little of Leverkusen's back slide.
Week 20 is very important for Leverkusen, because in the future they will face Bayern Munich. Victory over Darmstadt will be valuable capital to increase self confidence, because in my opinion the meeting with Bayern Munich will be decisive for the title they want to achieve. Tuchel will certainly maximize all the resources he has, to be able to continue to pressure Leverkusen and overtake them at the top of the standings. I am very curious whether Xabi will be able to bring his team unbeaten in this big match, a draw like in the first leg also sounds good.
