Bundesliga table positions: Bayern Munchen – 1, Wolfsburg – 9

Interesting fixture in the Bundesliga as round 19 of the season is underway this weekend with Bayern Munchen welcoming Wolfsburg on Saturday.

Bayern Munchen is still leading the Bundesliga table with a total of 37 points, same as it’s followers Borussia Dortmund and Schalke 04 but with a superior goal balance.

They suffered a major setback last week when they lost 3-1 away to M’gladbach, a painful defeat for the leaders and also a good reminder that nothing is decided in this very interesting championship.

Wolfsburg, on the other had, is experiencing a very modest season, only the 9th spot for them as they managed to gather just 23 points in all 18 games played.

They managed a victory over Koln last week but by the slightest of margins with a goal late in the 78′ minute, revealing that the team is still in poor form especially in the offensive.

My pick: Bayern Munchen to win ( under 2.5 goals )

The German Bundesliga is back after the winter break with leaders Bayern Munchen taking to the field on Friday as they travel to a difficult Borussia Monchengladbach.

M’gladbach  is on the 4th spot of the Bundesliga table at the moment with a total of 33 points, a superb position for them as they are just one point bellow second Borussia Dortmund and five points from leaders and current adversaries Bayern Munchen.

They have showed a good form in the winter friendly matches with three victories out of three played but against modest opponents to be honest.

Bayern Munchen is currently in the lead with a fragile 3 point advantage over Borussia Dortmund Schalke 04 but as well as their opponents with enthusiastic results in friendlies.

Their main problem in away matches so far seems to be the lack of goals scored, Bayern managed only 13 goals whilst traveling and conceded an important 7.

My pick: Bayern Munchen to win ( over 2.5 goals )

Bundesliga  table positions: Bayern - 1, Koln - 10

Round 17 of the German Bundesliga starting on Friday with leaders Bayern Munchen looking to conserve their fragile advantage as they host FC Koln.

Bayern Munchen is currently on the top spot of the Bundesliga table with a total of 34 points, three above next in line Borussia Dortmund and third Schalke 04 and although they are set to keep their position no matter what happens in this game due to their superior goal balance, any point is now important with the winter break approaching fast.

They are the clear favorites for all 3 points here but the team has experienced alternating results lately, between great and clear victories to painful losses, the last in the Bundesliga being the trip to Mainz, 3-2 the final score for the home side.

FC Koln only n the 10th spot of the Bundesliga table with a total of just 21 points in all 16 games played and with the pack so close together they are just 6 points above the relegation zone whilst experiencing a very poor form in the competition.

Only one victory for FC Koln in their last 5 matches played in the Bundesliga but with some hope of a rise in form as they managed to gather 5 points in their last 3 games played. Their situation in away games is disastrous as they failed to win any on the past 5 games, losing 4 and managing only one draw against Stuttgart.

My pick: Bayern Munchen to win ( over 2.5 goals )

Bundesliga with round 16 this weekend and a couple of interesting matches to be played on Saturday, among the Werder Bremen welcoming Wolfsburg.

Werder Bremen with a slight advantage over their rivals as they head into this game. Their form has been far from perfect with no less than 3 defeats in their previous 4 games played and a current 5th spot in the Bundesliga table as they total 26 points.

Their home play so far is vastly superior in terms of results that the overall, Werder Bremen managing to win 4 out of the past 5 home games showing a powerful defense.

Wolfsburg is currently on the 13th spot of the Bundesliga table with a total of just 17 points in all 15 matches played and with only one victory in the last 7 played it’s hard to see them achieving a positive result against Werder Bremen.

Their away statistic is just awful with no less than 6 defeats and a draw in the last 7 played in all competitions and their huge gaps in defense could be an easy target for an offensive team such Werder.

My pick:  Werder Bremen to win ( over 2.5 goals )

Bundesliga table positions: Schalke - 5, Augsburg - 18

Sunday in the German Bundesliga with Schalke 04 attempting to jump a few spots and close the gap from current leaders with this match against newly promoted Augsburg.

Schalke 04 currently on the 5th spot of the table with a total of 25 points in all 14 played. They sit just four points below leaders Dortmund but feeling the pressure from Bayer Leverkusen after their Friday win.

Two victories for them in their last 3 played, including this weeks’s win over Steaua Bucharest that granted them access in the next phase of Europa League. Nevertheless their form seems to alternate and Schalke’s main problem seems to be the defensive compartment.

Augsburg seems destined for a quick return to the 2nd league of Germany as they are on the last spot of the chart with just 11 points managed in all 14 games played.

Their last week surprising victory over Wolfsburg certainly gave them a good morale boost and with only 3 points separating them from the safe zone, Augsburg still retains chances.

My pick:  Schalke 04 to win ( under 2.5 goals )

Start of round no 15 in the German Bundesliga on Friday with Bayer Leverkusen welcoming Hoffenheim for what is expected to be a close and challenging match.

Bayer Leverkusen currently on the 6th spot of the Bundesliga table with a total of 22 points in all 14 games played and a goal balance of just +1.

They managed only a 3 all draw last week away to Hertha BSC, ending up seven points below leaders and champions Borussia Dortmund but with intense pressure from it’s followers.

Hoffenheim is experiencing a though phase as they failed to win any of their last four game played, falling in consequence to the 9th position in the chart with a total of 18 points.

No better luck for them in away matches as they lost their past three matches against reputable adversaries, scoring only one goal whilst conceding seven.

My pick:  Bayer Leverkusen to win ( over 2.5 goals )

Pressure mounting at the top of the German Bundesliga for Bayern Munchen especially as they face a difficult trip to Mainz 05 on Sunday.

Mainz is far from last season’s performances and after Friday and Saturday matches they hold a precarious 16th spot in the Bundesliga table with a total of 12 points but only 12 matches played so far.

Only two victories for them in the past 12 games played in all competition but a slight rise in form in recent ones and although Bayern is the favorite, Mainz has a good chance to restore it’s confidence.

Bayern Munchen, on the top spot of the league before this leg started, now on the third place as both Borussia Dortmund and Monchengladback have one point advantage.

Five victories in their last 6 played including a 3-1 win over Villarreal this week in the Champions League puts them in the driver’s seat for this match.

My pick:  Bayern Munchen to win ( over 2.5 goals )

A very exciting game in the German Bundesliga on Saturday as raining champions Borussia Dortmund welcome the ever dangerous Schalke 04.

Borussia Dortmund seems to be back in form and even if they lost their last match played, this week away to Arsenal in the Champions League, they managed to advance considerably in the Bundesliga table in recent weeks.

Great form for them in home matches as well as Borussia Dortmund managed no less than five consecutive victories in recent games, with a strong offensive force and a defensive to match.

Schalke 04 is close by, with a current total of 25 points, they are just one bellow their adversaries and just three from leaders Bayern Munchen.

Great form for them this time in away games, managing four victories and a draw in the latest played, apparently with an emphasis on defense.

My pick:  Borussia Dortmund to win ( over 2.5 goals )

Sunday in the Bundesliga with two games left of the 11th round of the competition, among one the duel between Hamburger SV and Kaiserslautern.

Hamburg with a very poor display of strength so far in the season, managing only 8 points in all 10 games played and more striking a goal balance of -10.

It may be hard to believe but Hamburg failed to win any of their 5 games played at home in the Bundesliga as they gathered only 2 points in 2 draws and lost the remaining 3.

Kaiserslautern in a slightly better shape that their opponents as they stand on the 14th spot of the table, 3 points above their current opponents.

A good form showed by them in recent matches as they managed two consecutive victories in the Bundesliga and advanced into the DFB Pokal defeating Eintracht this week.

My pick:  Hamburg to win ( under 2.5 goals )

Round 10 in the German Bundesliga with raining champions Borussia Dortmund taking to the field on Saturday as they host FC Koln.

Borussia Dortmund suffered yet another defeat in the Champions League this week as they traveled to Olympiakos, 3-1 the final score, making their chances of qualifying very low with Marseille and Arsenal in already ahead.

Three consecutive victories for the in the Bundesliga have boosted them up to the third spot of the table with a current total of 16 points in 9 games played.

FC Koln, although only on the 10th spot of the Bundesliga table, are just 3 points below their current adversaries and managing to achieve some surprising results thus far.

A 2-0 victory against Hannover 96 last week gave the team a much needed morale boost after their embarrassing performance against Herta in the previous game.

My pick:  Borussia Dortmund to win ( under 2.5 goals )
