On what basis Kaiserslautern can't be underestimated?
After all, Kaiserslautern at this moment is also in the 2. Bundesliga standings, the fact is that Kaiserslautern is in the relegation zone. Also, the fact is that the DFB Pokal trophy is always won by teams playing in the Bundesliga and never by teams playing in the 2. Bundesliga. Therefore, I personally believe that even though Bayer Leverkusen underestimated Kaiserslautern but still, Bayer Leverkusen will still get the DFB Pokal trophy this season. Therefore, the Bundesliga trophy and the DFB Pokal trophy will certainly be obtained by Bayer Leverkusen.
So yes, of course it would be very impressive if Bayer Leverkusen also won the Europa League trophy this season, because then Bayer Leverkusen managed to get a treble winner this season. But indeed, if for example Bayer Leverkusen failed to win the trophy in the Europa League,but Bayer Leverkusen still managed with impressive results this season. So of course, there is no doubt at all about Bayer Leverkusen in the DFB Pokal final, because it is clear that Kaiserslautern does not have the quality to be able to beat Bayer Leverkusen at this moment, because Bayer Leverkusen still has a very great and very impressive trend.
I completely agree with you, but to my surprise, bookmakers quote Bayer’s odds quite generously - 1.24. I thought that the coefficient would be no more than 1.10 or something like that.
To what you said, I can add that since Bayer is hungry for titles, there will be no underestimation or weak motivation, it seems to me that they will win confidently with a score of 3-0 or 4-0. Kaiserslautern has no chance.
As for the treble, it won’t be exactly that treble (one might say a small treble), but it will still be a very significant achievement. Even a double would be a very significant achievement, since even Bayern did not win the German Cup every year.
