Before the start, Bayern were priced at 1.30. Quite generous if you think about the fact that all competitors are weak. But literally one round has passed and now Bayern are priced at 1.13 
And I think it's not about the win over Leipzig or Bayer, but about Dortmund confirming their trashiness. The old pattern repeated itself - after a series of good games, when it seems that they have stabilized, a series of bad games follows. There really won't be any competition for the title this season.
The odds offered by bookmakers for Munich as the favorites for this season's Bundesliga title indicate that this season's title race will be uncompetitive. The battle for the Champions League spots will likely be more competitive than the Bundesliga trophy.

The old pattern repeated itself - after a series of good games, when it seems that they have stabilized, a series of bad games follows. There really won't be any competition for the title this season.Munich is in its second season under Kompany which is a strong reason why they are favored aside from the weakness of their competitors this season. Furthermore, Munich under Kompany has matured and developed a better mentality. With the Bundesliga predicted to be uncompetitive, this gives them the advantage to focus more on the Champions League this season.
I think it's not about Kompany, but about the fact that with the departure of Xabi and several players, Leverkusen has become weaker, and that Dortmund has been in crisis for the third year in a row. Bayern literally have no competitors and even if they have an unsuccessful period, there is no one who could punish them for it. Yes, the battle for a place in the Champions League will be interesting, but in reality, no - the group stage of the Champions League does not mean anything now, it is a garbage stage.
