Before Leverkusen became champions, only Munich and Dortmund were the title contenders. There were almost no other teams at the same level as them. Leipzig and Stuttgart were in second place behind them. And unfortunately Dortmund's performance was inconsistent in every season. They were only able to compete until the middle of the season and after that Munich would dominate the league until they became champions. Only in the 2022/2023 season did Dortmund play impressively and have the same points as Munich, unfortunately they lost on goal difference. But as far as I know Dortmund lost against Munich in the league match that season. This is different from Leverkusen who became the undisputed champion after drawing and winning against the Bundesliga king Bayern Munich.
There was no doubt that the German Bundesliga was becoming too boring for football lovers before last season that Bayer Leverkusen ended Bayern Munich 9 years dominance in the league. The league was the most predictable among the top five leagues in Europe until Xabi Alonso's men won the league for the first time in the history of the club. However, my concern and that of other football faithfuls is if Bayer Leverkusen will be able to repeat their performance of last season when the new season kicks off. Do you think Bayer Leverkusen will be able to defeat Bayern Munich home and away like they did last season in the league, do you think Bayern Munich can afford losing our in winning the title next season? The upcoming Bundesliga season I think will be a interesting because of these questions.
Bayern Munich dominated the Bundesliga title for a very long time, such that the league became bored to me and so many others. It was also applicable to leagues like, ligue 1 which was dominated by PSG. But lucky enough Bayern Leverkusen came and surprised us all, after Dortmund tried for many seasons. I am waiting for next season and see how the Leverkusen will fare.
