You're right. Dortmund are really doing well this season again and I am sure they will fight for the Bundesliga title this season bayern Munich or Dortmund that will win the league, because Leverkusen has already shown that they can't succeed this season they can just end up in the top four and qualify for the UCL next season again, but if it comes to the league no way or for them again, xavi alonso will just focus on the champions league now because he won the league last season so he won't put effort on the league he will fight for the big trophy and that is UCL. am really sure that Xabi Alonso will go fa in the competition even if he will lose for the competition he won't be so easily.
Things are now a little more different for the Bundesliga as although the competition remains the same, there are a few factors that will make a difference this season as some of the big clubs start the season with a transition and that is evident with new coaches being appointed to manage the two big clubs right away with Dortmund and Bayern appointing young coaches for a significant difference in the trophy race this season.
The odds are very much stacked against some of the big clubs in the race because although Bayern are still the favorites, we can't underestimate Dortmund or this season's defending champions Leverkusen who will definitely be the favorites for now.
This shows that the bundesliga competition will find a new chapter where every situation can be unpredictable because usually we always assume that Bayern will still stand as the champion at the end of the season but that situation stopped last season which makes the bundelsiga can be difficult to guess this season.
