Leverkusen has a big chance of getting a ticket to appear in the Champions League next season, I am very sure they can get it from the Bundesliga because it is enough to finish in the top four of the standings. One more ticket can be won from the European League competition, but with the condition that Xabi Alonso must be able to bring Laverkusen to become champions. Talking about maintaining consistency and the challenges that Xabi will face in the future, I think this is very conditional, in the sense that ups and downs in a team performance will definitely happen. As a manager, Xabi really understands the level of competition and challenges he will face in the future, and we have seen his performance with Laverkusen in the first half of the season, Xabi was able to do very well.
Currently, Leverkusen's consistency has put them in the top contending spots for the Bundesliga title. Even though it's not so certain yet as there are still games to determine the victor, there's every possibility that there may be change of hands this season.
Bayern Munich are doing their best to match up the intensity of contest Leverkusen are putting forward, and they'll been hoping for a slight mistake from Leverkusen to give them an advantage of topping the league.
Definitely they can hold onto the pressure for a while and for Leverkusen, they are not resilient in pursuing that major aim. Alonso and his squad aren't giving up and weekly they put up a whole different energy towards that trophy race. The time is sure going to be tough for all their opponents and the games will go almost to the last end before a victor can be confirmed.
