This year looks set to be a year in which Bayern Munich can easily win the championship. They're good enough to easily beat any team, regardless of strength or weakness. Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen, on the other hand, look poised to disappoint this year. I felt this particularly strongly during Bayern Leverkusen's matches. It looks set to be a relatively easy season for Bayern Munich.

Dortmund and Leverkusen are not even a threat to average teams in the Bundesliga, neither do they pose a threat to Bayern Munich. Leverkusen are fighting to build progress, it will be a long process of attempting differents things in the squad before actualising the right balance, and by the time of settling they must have lost necessary points that will keep them away from title contenders.

Bayern Munich are going to win Bundesliga confidently, Dortmund or Leverkusen may not settle in 2nd position because i see more serious teams performing better than them, what is worth fighting for is a Champions League position not the title.

Since the season started have notice that Dortmund and Levekusen can't compete well in the competition this season, because they have started performing weak and Bayern Munich can be favourite to achieve the Bundesliga title for the second time. But let see how the competition will be because the season just started and they can probably improve in some games but if they continue performing this way, I don't they can contribute in the Bundesliga. Dortmund and Levekusen are currently in the Champions League and they are performing weak already in the league competition they need to improve more better if they want to perform in the ucl this season.

Erik Ten as lose is first game for Levekusen and we think is a good coach, is just because Manchester United are not good that is why he didn't help the club as we wish. Let's see if he will improve better in some games since the season as just started, But have giveup that Leverkusen can win Munich in the competition. because don't think any club in the competition we challenges Bayern Munich this season with key players they have currently.

Bayern being favorites is not even a debate at the moment. They have got a squad worth €857.5m. That is literally 2× Dortmund and ~2.5x Leverkusen. In addition, they can replace Coman or Gnabry with bench pieces such as it is nothing. And in the 6-0 vs Leipzig, they were winning possession in 11 seconds versus 27.5 by Leipzig, so they were effectively in the attacking third all night. Kane scores a hat-trick, Olise scores two and an assist, and Diaz scores...

But it is lazy to write Dortmund/Leverkusen off this early. Even when Mane had red card and Schlotterbeck + Sule were injured, Dortmund continued to create 1.63 xG versus St. Pauli. They are not hopeless. An even more striking example is the case of Leverkusen: they lost 1-1 but possessed 60% of the ball, 88% of the passes and yet they won xG (0.89 vs. 0.47). That does not mean tactical failure. So Bayern are favourites, but MD1 was more about variance penalising the chasers, than revealing them as dead
