Bayern München - SC Freiburg

After the weekend is clear that Bayern Munich is the half time Champion in "Bundesliga". They are walking through the league and no one can stop them. Before the season many have talked that they are not so strong because after the World Cup most of their players are tired and need some time if they are back to normal level. They expect a lot of problems until the winter break, but where are the problems? They are not there, they win and win and win and also the defensive line is absolutely unbeatable. They conceded only 3 in 15 matches now. Hard to believe but this strength from Bayern is incredible this season. They are maybe stronger as last year and all what Guardiola do or did is going into success. It is not out if he wants to play again with he strongest available lineup or rotate a bit for this encounter but they are not weaker anyway. In the last games Rode made a really good performance and is an absolutely alternative for Guardiola now. Also Schweinsteiger is back after long injury. Of course, they have a few out with Lahm, Thiago, Alaba, Martinez, Pizarro ..... but if they are back .......

In Freiburg they are always fighting against relegation, of course some seasons they are doing very well but for this all must be build up well and all the signed players must play a good role in their system. This time Coach Streich said that after they lose some players in summer that they play against relegation and he was right. They have a lot of problems above all the offensive is harmless and they need to many attempts for a goal or in defensive they make to many easy mistakes what lead to goals. The structure is good there but they are only a hard working small club who has to fight more as other clubs and the budget is low anyway. In Munich they did not get much in recent years and it looks like that they come here and play the 90. minutes and drive home then. Ok, Coach Streich said that he wants to hurt Bayern but at the moment it is impossible ........
