The four teams that are in the top 4 of the standings will meet each other this week. Bayern Munich vs Freiburg and Union Berlin vs Borussia Dortmund, meaning we will see a shift in points and positions in the standings. They must not lose to each other because it will create distance and will also shift their position. Union Berlin and Freiburg are under more pressure than Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund as they are asked to keep their current positions.
Union Berlin and Borussia Dortmund will be the most interesting matches while Bayern Munich and Freiburg are not very interesting because it will be easy to predict that Bayern Munich will lose again, while in Dortmund vs Union Berlin it will be more interesting because they have a very strong team and took first place at the top of the standings.
Although Bayern's performance has decreased this season, which until the 9th round Bayern seemed to struggle to rise to the top position.
But if we compare Bayern with Freiburg's performance, it's not much different, so we can't conclude that Freiburg will beat Bayern easily.
Moreover, the quality of Bayern's players is still better than Freiburg, so don't be too sure Freiburg will beat Bayern.
Freiburg has indeed played quite well this season by managing to be in 2nd position, but this is not because Freiburg's performance is extraordinary.
It's just that Freiburg is lucky that some of the big teams in the Bundesliga have declined,
as evidence we can see Freiburg in the last 5 matches only managed to get two wins and the remaining 3 matches played a draw.
So Bayern's chances of beating Freiburg are quite large, especially Bayern playing at home, it should make Bayern play more motivated.
But my prediction is that the Bayern vs Freiburg match will end in a draw.
I agree the Union Berlin vs Dortmund match is much more interesting, because it is more difficult to predict,
because Dortmund does have better quality players than Union Berlin, but the problem is Dortmund doesn't play consistently.
So there is a possibility that Dortmund will lose against Union Berlin, but I hope Dortmund can beat Union Berlin,
so that the competition in the Bundesliga is more interesting, because if Dortmund manages to beat Union Berlin, the difference between Dortmund and Union Berlin points will be closer.
And give Freiburg a chance to shift Union Berlin from the top position if Freiburg can beat Bayern.
