I thought that Bayern Munich would eventually overtake Leverkusen, but after seeing the performance of all the Leverkusen players, I became more confident that Xabi team could compete to defend the title until the end of the season.
I think everyone must also be surprised by what Leverkusen are doing in defending the top spot, and yes I'm with you, initially I never thought that Leverkusen would be able to go this far in defending the top spot because after all they were a mid-table team a few seasons ago and I really never found any indication of what they were going to do this season, and it turns out that their transformation is really surprising, and their performance last season was also a shadow and made us think at first that they would not be able to be that strong to defend the top, but it turns out that they can prove it so far.
We can see that Bayern Munich are very troubled to catch up with their points in second place in the standings, although the difference is not too far away but it is very difficult to catch up if basically Leverkusen can always secure every match they pass by winning three full points or even a draw. With Leverkusen's achievements so far, it is only natural if we think that it looks like they will really be able to break the dominance of Bayern Munich, but this is still a prediction and does not rule out the possibility that Leverkusen could end up like Dortmund last season.
all of this is thanks to Xabi and it has been proven that since Xabi served as head coach of Leverkusen last season, Leverkusen has actually made great improvements, it's just that everyone doesn't realize it and only focuses on Munich achievements, which are always the bundesliga title holders and I'm not feeling arrogant but I'm really right. I feel that since Xabi existence, Leverkusen has changed last season, being able to score 57 scores in one season is a good achievement.
It's no surprise that this season Xabi can provide good strategic quality for Leverkusen because Xabi is a former top team player who was at Real Madrid and Bayern Munich so it's only natural that Xabi is able to take Leverkusen to a higher level and I'm sure as long as Leverkusen is still there being under Xabi care in the future will achieve very good achievements.
Bayern Munich is indeed having a little difficulty in catching up with the points that Leverkusen has, but actually it is easy for Bayern Munich to catch up with Leverkusen points, it's just that Munich is one game behind and we definitely have the same hope that Leverkusen won't have the same fate as Dortmund, which was finally shifted to end of season match.
