I am eagerly waiting for the first match of Bundesliga after the international break. The match will be between Leverkusen vs Frankfurt. Leverkusen did not start the season well. And Leverkusen failed to win in both matches. And then we saw that leverkusen fired ten hag. This is Leverkusen's first match with new coach Kasper Hjulmand.

Frankfurt is not a weak team. frankfurt is one of the renowned teams in Bundesliga. Frankfurt has won two matches this season and is in second place in the table. Frankfurt is in better form compared to Leverkusen.
An interesting thing is that leverkusen has won all their last 5 matches against Frankfurt. Although Frankfurt is not a weak team, but their past performance against Leverkusen is not good. So Frankfurt will have to play very carefully if they want to win this match.

Bayer Leverkusen have been surprisingly poor with their performance this new campaign. I think the departure of their former manager Xabi Alonso and some of the key players that won the league under the Spanish manager hugely contributed to the club's poor form this season. Less than a month into the new season, they've already sacked Alonso's successor Erik Ten Hag and will now have to face Eintracht Frankfurt for their first league game after the first international break of the season.

Playing at home, I think Leverkusen stands a good chance of getting their first domestic win of the season but they'll have to perform better than they've ever done this season to achieve that. The game is in the 55th minute already with home team leading by 2:1.

I think sacking Ten Hag was not the solution, they were suffering from the exit of their key players, it would take some time for the team to harmonize play again and come back to good performing days. I wouldn't even be surprised if this game ends in a draw, I just hope they're patient with this new manager and not cast him out his predecessor who they sacked after just 3 games in charge.
