Bayern Munich also struggle sometimes just as Leverkusen do. For example Bayern Munich were also able to beat Wolfsburg by only 2-1 a short time ago. Wolfsburg aren't a good season at all you know. Moreover Frankfurt demolished Bayern Munich by 5-1 last month. It was a shocking result for Bayern Munich as well. 

Leverkusen are currently the only team going on without a single loss during the season. 17 games and 14 wins... This is really impressive. I really like Xabi Alonso's team this season and hope to see them maintaining this streak without a loss as long as possible.

Time feels so fast that we don't realize that Leverkusen has become an extraordinary team this season and thanks to Xabi Alonso as coach Leverkusen can reach the level of competing for the Bundesliga title. With the current Leverkusen squad, Xabi Alonso has turned him into a very dangerous player and in almost all positions there is no weakness at all. But the time will come, including Leverkusen and maybe they will start to experience a decline in performance at the end of the season and if that happens, Bayern Munich will be the team that will benefit again like what they experienced last season when they managed to get rid of Dortmund.

Considering the home record of RB Leipzig since the start of the season, playing against them in their own home ground is actually one of the toughest games any team in the German Bundesliga can play in and against Bayer Leverkusen, I also expect  the very strong game. The rate of media hypes and preview of the game alone tells how strong it promises to be when the two German clubs meet on Saturday.

That being said, I'm still backing the away team Bayer Leverkusen to grab all three points from the game despite the fact that they'll not be playing the match with their top goalscorer this season Victor Boniface.

Honestly, I'm super hyped for this Leipzig vs Leverkusen match. From what I've seen, Leipzig is a beast at home, and Leverkusen, even without Boniface, isnt a team to underestimate. They managed to control the game against Augsburg, but Leipzig at the Red Bull Arena is a whole different challenge. I reckon Xabi Alonso's got his work cut out for him, especially considering Leipzig's thirst for revenge after their last defeat to Leverkusen. This clash has "epic" written all over it. Both teams are gunning for those crucial UCL spots, and with the kind of form they're in, its anyone's game. Cant wait to see how this plays out!

Stuttgart must win because consecutive defeats will only cause them to leave the top 4 of the standings faster and as you said Leipzig has the opportunity to shift their position if they lose again. In general, Bochum is not a very strong opponent, but sometimes this team also performs well when facing quite strong opponents, especially being at home makes them get additional energy from the fans.

I think Stuttgart without Guirassy is just an ordinary team and that cannot be allowed because they have worked hard to reach this level and compete at the top with other strong teams. So what I hope is that they can quickly forget their previous defeat against Gladbach and step back to win against Bochum later. I turned away from your prediction and my prediction is not that complicated, winning by just one goal is already a blessing for Stuttgart with the reduced strength in their attack line.

After the loses against Mönchengladbach Stuttgart will facing Bochum this weekend and on the paper this should be easy match because at the beginning of this season both teams has been met and at that time Stuttgart can win with big scores 5-0 and Stuttgart conditions doesn't really good recently because they only got 2 wins from 5 latest matches in Bundesliga moreover losing some players just like Guirassy makes them in the difficult situation so if Stuttgart failed to win again from this match then their position will be overtaked by Leipzig if this team win from Leverkusen

Bochum has interesting records at their home because from 8 home matches total they got 5 draw and only lost once so these records is proven Bochum at home was hard to defeated so although from recent performance and the position on league standings Stuttgart was more better but i think Bochum had a potention to make Stuttgart get in trouble especially just like i said before Stuttgart will playing without their main striker Guirassy so my prediction is Stuttgart will be very difficult to scores and i think big possibility this match will ended to draw

Leverkusen is currently still quite consistent and their performance has not decreased so I think they might be able to beat Leipzig even though they have to fight harder because the opponent is quite tough, Leipzig is not an easy club to beat because as you said, Leipzig is an elite club. Bundesliga from season to season and Leipzig's performance is also not too bad so Leverkusen must be careful in this match to achieve the expected results.

I think Leipzig's performance is a little different because this will be held at Leipzig headquarters. Of course Leipzig is at an advantage and home strength makes Leipzig much stronger, but Leverkusen is also strong in the away game so Leipzig cannot underestimate their opponent in this match and the two teams will fight fierce in winning, I am very curious about Leverkusen performance without its mainstay striker and against Leipzig, will Xabi Alonso be able to maintain his club consistency in this match because Bayern Munich is really waiting for Leverkusen to slip up.

Bayer Leverkusen leading till this very moment and they're still unbeaten in league matches. Unbelievable to watch the incredible work triggered by the unity of Leverkusen players and the coach takes the higher portion because he's the main reason Leverkusen is where they're today. Xabi Alonso have really gone extra length and measures to watch the prosperity of the club. Before we would be seeing Bayern Munich ans Borrusia Dortmund but things do changes and this time we're watching Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich for the Bundesliga title race, how time flies.

Tough game roughly played with so much eagerness and desire to win, you could see those lads pressing and exchanging the ball quickly so they could open down spaces and break the walls of Jericho set and built solid by the defense if Augsburg.
The wait, fight and patience was worth it finally at the end of the game.

It's feels good to see how they have also started the second half of this season with a win, they shouldn't slack ahead because they will be seeing the game go hard.

I'm not happy they're not making plans to at least get a player for backup! Could be that the manager or management has no such plans, I don't know! 

Leverkusen is currently improving its performance and we cannot deny that their excellent consistency has still kept them in first place for quite a long period of time. However, we also admit that Leipzig is not an easy opponent to beat, and is indeed considered a top club in the Bundesliga, although recently, its performance has not been that optimal and has only experienced defeats and draws that could actually be optimized.

However, we will not know whether Leipzig's performance against Leverkusen will be the same as yesterday or whether their progress will actually improve. So, in this case, Leverkusen must be quite careful. both of them certainly dream of victory. However, the final result will really depend on how the coach makes tactics and the players compete on the field later. However, I personally think that Leverkusen will lead and win the match.

The match against Augsburg looked indeed so hard for Leverkusen to build their gameplan, but Xabi Alonso was able to strategize extensively to secure the three points suggests the intensity of the encounter. Augsburg looked able to expose Leverkusen's weaknesses, but unluckily they losed the game against them that emphasizes the fine margins in football.

Leverkusen surely have become a team to be anticipated by many teams. Xabi Alonso should have various solutions for the upcoming fixtures that might pose similar challenges, because it's crucial for maintaining their unbeaten record. It would surely be harder to face Leipzig, because they are adangerous opponent. It needs a cautious approach with an awareness of the potential threats from other formidable teams.

Bayer Leverkusen got the full three points from the last game and that's the only thing that matters regardless of what happened in the game or how hard they tried for it but they did it.
I think Bayer Leverkusen still is going to beat Leipzig in the next game however this match won't be easy for them since we are going to see a game between two teams at the top of the Budesliga table.

I wouldn’t say that match was the hardest or most difficult match for Bayern Leverkusen, the game against Bayern Munich is actually the toughest they have had last season. The game against Augsburg was just a real of resilience, it was the first game after the winter break and everyone will definitely be relaxed and that’s why the players were a bit down in the game. This weekend game against Leipzig is definitely part of those games that will be a tittle decider, Leipzig have cemented there status as a top club since they got promoted to the Bundesliga and they can beat just any team. Throughout this season I have been confident in almost all the game Bayer Leverkusen had played but this one is just so unpredictable.

The injury to Boniface is definitely a huge blow to them although even if he wasn’t injured he will still be on AFCON duties so it was already known that he will miss this game. Still they have a strike problem because the second option is which is Patrick Shick seems to be way out of form at the moment. I could remember when Shick was at the top of his game, right now they will definitely need that old Shick back. Dropping points this January wouldn’t be a good start for them seriously but I still predict they will win because Xabi Alonso always comes out with some plans

The future challenge faced by Leverkusen when facing Leipzig is the absence of several of their key players, Xabi Alonso lost five players due to injury and is strengthening the national team. The match against Leipzig also looks like it will be tough for them, but I think Xabi will emphasize his players to score quickly, because we know Leipzig is tougher than Augsburg, hoping they let their guard down in the last minute is not a good strategy, and I feel that in the match Leverkusen yesterday Xabi fleet was lucky to secure full points. Leipzig is of course very ambitious to break Leverkusen unbeaten record, especially since they will have the ambition to avenge the first leg.

Acting as host certainly gives Leipzig a good sense of confidence, because it gets full support from its own supporters. However, in their previous match Leipzig lost points after being beaten by Eintracht Frankfurt, if Xabi can explore their weaknesses like Frankfurt did, I think Leverkusen will re-affirm their position in the standings. Leipzig will certainly try their best to maintain their position in the top four of the standings, because Dortmund has the potential to overtake them because they are only 3 points behind at the moment. Personally I have a tendency that Leverkusen will win the match, but we'll see how the match ends.

In the next five matches, Leverkusen will face its toughest challenge. If Xabi can make his squad stable and consistent then their chances of winning a trophy will be even greater. Maybe it wouldn't be wrong to call the January to February period a reference for Leverkusen peak performance, I think Xabi and his fleet can conquer the various challenges that lie ahead. In the end, Laverkusen consistency has put pressure on Bayern Munchen for a long time, half of the season has passed for Bayern with Laverkusen leading the standings. The competition will get hotter when Bayern has finished the postponed match against Union Berlin, because Tuchel fleet has the opportunity to cut the gap with Leverkusen to 1 point.

To be honest i think that match was one of their hardest this season and Xabi Alonso would had really cracked his brains to make sure he gets 3 points from the game, if you observed very well you'll see that they were very dominant and passive but luck wasn't on their side when it comes to finding the back of the net. It took them about 24 shots with 6 on target just to score a lucky goal that gave them the 3 points, Augsburg would had exposed their wickness if they had won or drawn Leverkusen, but the constant pressure from Leverkusen caused them to give up at last.

 I think Leverkusen should use this game as an eye opener for the outcome of their upcoming fixtures if they don't cover some of their errors, other teams might begin to come up with a pattern of beating them and ending the unbeaten record they've kept this season. Leipzig is a team they shouldn't take chances with, cause they could  be more dangerous than Augsburg.

Achieving victory in the final minute provided a very different kind of pleasure, Leverkusen with all their luck managed to secure full points after 90 minutes of normal time. Their unbeaten record continues, various appreciations and flashbacks to their history have now become a hot topic of conversation in the media, questioning how far Xabi Alonso can go in bringing Leverkusen to stay in top form. Finishing a season undefeated is not impossible, we know that several European clubs have done it, such as Arsenal in the EPL, and AC Milan in Serie A.

At the weekend Leipzig will again test their endurance, mentality and put pressure on Leverkusen. Xabi Alonso has certainly evaluated his squad, he doesn't want his club to win in extra time like in the match against Augsburg, that's too risky but can be understood because several of his mainstay players are absent. Statistically Leverkusen deserves and really deserves to be at the top, but Leipzig will test the limits of Leverkusen abilities for the second time this season, I don't think Leipzig will be able to get revenge this time.

After the break they have first lost at home which is surely important for their progress but still they are having one of the best team in Bundesliga and their performance against top teams are also reasonable which can bring them to good spot Bayer Leverkusen is also team to watch for the season, so this could be big game for the both clubs, but Bayern Munich could be the biggest beneficiary in case of win for Leipzig because they will overtake leaders and having good chance for the another title even nothing is predictable because in this season we have good challenging matches at the top of league table and few teams are now trying to regroup themselves for the staying into hunt for their Champions League spot which is not easy for any team.

Remembering the previous match that Leverkusen played when they visited Augsburg, it looks like it will be quite a difficult challenge for Xabi Alonso to bring his team to the Red Bul Arena, Leipzig's home ground. moreover, the absence of Victor Boniface means that Xabi has to implement another system that is more effective than the one against Augsburg. even though Leverkusen statistically controlled the game at that time, playing against Leipzig, especially at home, was not an easy matter. what is certain is that Leipzig is tougher than Augsburg. well, to overthrow the hosts in this meeting, will be homework for Xabi Alonso and his team.

On the other hand, the home team will take full advantage of this match to get full points at home. plus, avenge their defeat in the first meeting at the BayArena home to Bayer Leverkusen. so, this match should be an enjoyable fight to watch. neither Marco Rose nor Xabi Alonso want to lose points in this meeting. which means, both sides are equally aiming for victory. Leverkusen to keep their distance from Bayern Munich, while Leipizig as the home team is aiming for victory to shift the position occupied by Stuttgart. I tried referring to the betting exchange, even though it is temporary, the odds available are not much different.  even though Leizpig has an advantage as the home team. well, let's just wait before this fight takes place this week.

In last game we have some hard work needed Bayer Leverkusen for having full 3 points and things were not favourable specially after break but still they have done good job and achieve their target which is good but now as we are in second half and Bayer Munich is looking for their best with title into their mind, so both teams will be tried their best and Bayer Leverkusen is surely having match which is going to give indicator can they win title, or they will break deadlock and have lost of points it is big game which will decide about how things will be in last this half of the season.

RB Leipzig is one of the toughest side even they lost their first game after break but still they can do their best for staying into better spot with Dortmund and Stuttgart are also doing good and things will be not easy for these teams which are at the top and also have fair chance for replacing opponents.

If in fact Leipzig is a good team for home matches then ya, it is likely that Bayer Leverkusen will find it difficult to score goals this match. But ya, if Leipzig does not have a strong defense then ya, atleast a weak defense will make Bayer Leverkusen become easy to make a score. Because anyway, in the last match of Bayer Leverkusen against Augsburg is also the fact that Bayer Leverkusen is not easy to score goals because Augsburg has a strong defense but ya, even so, in the last match Leipzig at home also lost by Eintracht Frankfurt with a score of 0-1.

Therefore, I think Leipzig is not entirely good and cannot fully promise good for get results despite playing at home against Bayer Leverkusen later. Because ya, Bayer Leverkusen still has big ambitions to be able to maintain its position at the top of the Bundesliga standings . Because anyway, atthis moment also Bayer Leverkusen is still consistent with good performance and therefore, I think Bayer Leverkusen will still have a chance to get full points or at least will not be defeated by Leipzig.
