Bundesliga is similar to Ligue 1, that only one club is the strongest and the favorite to win the league. However, we have more stronger clubs in Bundesliga than Ligue 1, which was the reason why Leverkusen came from nowhere and won the title under Xabi Alonso. I don't expect to see any surprises again from Bundesliga, because Kompany has put the club back to her standard.
Yes, it could be said that it's almost similar. In the Bundesliga, there's Bayern Munich and in Ligue 1, there's PSG, who consistently dominate the title. But the Bundesliga doesn't feel boring because there are so many strong clubs competing for second and third place, sometimes even making things difficult for Bayern Munich. Meanwhile, in Ligue 1, it seems a bit boring because aren't entirely consistent, sometimes they can still be beaten by weaker clubs. Even in the Champions League, the Ligue 1 clubs aren't as strong as the Bundesliga clubs, who sometimes still reach the final.
After Xabi left, I don't think any other club could pull off a surprise, but Dortmund might be the club to compete here because, as we know, Dortmund has been Bayern's fierce rival for years.
