Yes indeed, with this defeat, Bayern Munich will likely be difficult to take over the top position in Bundesliga standing this moment. But ya, which make me surprising is, this is Bayern Munich first defeat this season in the Bundesliga, but the defeat Bayern Munich received is with a big score like 5-1, obviously this is a big blow to the mentality of the Bayern Munich squad. Because anyway, whatever result Bayer Leverkusen gets in the match against Stuttgart this time, the fact is that Bayer Leverkusen will still remain at the top of the Bundesliga standings at this moment.
That's right, the pressure Laverkusen has put on Bayern Munchen this season is very different from what Dortmund put on them in previous seasons. The point difference has been created, the hope of overtaking the top position is still very possible, and it is still quite open. However, Bayern must get up and forget yesterday embarrassing defeat, and must continue to consistently secure point after point while waiting for Laverkusen to stumble. But so far, we still see Xabi Alonso squad continuing their unbeaten trend, this fierce competition is really making Tuchel unhappy and having difficulty sleeping soundly.
The Laverkusen versus Stuttgart match ended in a draw, but they still lead the standings with a difference of 4 points to Bayern who is currently in second place. Even though this result was less than satisfactory for Xabi and his squad, they were still saved from defeat. In the future, Laverkusen will face Eintracht Frankfurt, Xabi must be fully alert to this team, if he doesn't want their record to be broken and embarrassed like Bayern yesterday.
