Bayer Leverkusen will be participating in two tough tournaments this year. One is the Bundesliga and the other is the Champions League. They want to play for the championship in both tournaments, but one thing they should not forget is their opponent Bayern Munich. Bayern, who want to make people forget last year's unpleasant results, seems to be fully prepared this year. They want to storm the league with their new coach. Let's see which team will win the Leverkusen Bayern Munich fight and become the champion. Of course, the third surprise team is Borussia Dortmund. If they have a season as expected, they can become one of the candidate teams for the championship.
Dortmund have been trying hard to break Bayern Munich dominance for more than a decade, they almost succeeded in the 22-23 season, where both teams collected 71 points when the season ended. Surprisingly and phenomenally, it was Leverkusen who managed to break Bayern Munich dominance last season, maybe Dortmund can do it next season. However, it is not an easy job, because Kompany has spent a lot of budget to improve the depth of his squad, as well as Xabi Alonso who has so far managed to convince most of his key players to stay at BayArena. We realize that Dortmund have also recruited several players, but Nuri Sahin needs a lot of luck to be able to beat Bayern Munich and Leverkusen in the competition for the Bundesliga trophy. Not to mention if we include Stuttgart and Leipzig as other possibilities, it will clearly make the competition more complex and competitive.
Honestly I say if Alonso managed to take advantage of the opportunity when Munich was experiencing a very deep decline in performance. While in terms of player quality Munich is more superior but unfortunately Alonso is more precise in providing strategy.
Last season Leverkusen looked very impressive, but this season I doubt it a little. The reason is very simple because Bayern Munich will not repeat the same mistake because this team is known as a Bundesliga giant who must maintain the reputation of his team. And on the one hand Leverkusen this season will not only compete with Munich but must compete with Dortmund who managed to bring in a reliable striker.
Regarding Stuttgart and Leipzig I doubt these two teams because it is clear that they will not be able to become the strongest challenger after Stuttgart lost its mainstay player who moved and joined Dortmund.
