At the beginning of the year, betting sites will give lower odds because they will believe in Leverkusen's championship more than last year.
Yep, bookmakers will be stoked Leverkusen success after winning the title in the bundesliga and as long as there are no major changes to the main players, Leverkusen will remain the favorite team with lower odds than other team.
And on the one hand, when Leverkusen gets lower odds than Bayern Munich, because the bookmakers will also consider the new, inexperienced coach currently serving as coach in Munich.
I think Bayern is the biggest favorite for the championship this year, but the transfers of the players will allow us to talk more clearly.
If next season Leverkusen will be the first favorite team and Bayern Munich will be the second favorite team, I will choose to bet on Bayern Munich as the title holder in the next season.
Kompany may not be very experienced but seeing Leverkusen busy schedule in competing in the UCL, makes me confident that Bayern Munich will lead the bundesliga again and I think this reason is quite reasonable because mentally Leverkusen doesn't have much experience in the UCL and will definitely defend the bundesliga title and chasing the UCL title will be a pressure for Xabi.
Regarding the transfer of new players, it seems that Kompany will not make any major changes, he will only bring in new players in the defense line and this will not be a big problem.
