Week after week, we see how the team against opponents with better cadres at times shows true performance, with the ball as against the ball. Week after week we collect but also really annoying goals, after unnecessary mistakes, by ridiculous penalties, moderately defended standards , I plead for a dirty 0: 0 as a target!

shape

It's amazing how fast during the season of "Huch, we have to remove Albornoz from the squad, because we have too many players who deserve the bet" to "Oh, if we can get the spare bench?" came. Sick: Felipe, Füllkrug, Hübers, Maina. For private reasons not included: Sorg. Applied, but probably available: Schwegler, Esser, Weydandt. Let's hope the best.

emotional state

The recent game against Wolfsburg in the DFB Cup we could have won well. Let me put it this way: Maybe the colleagues from the VW city spent their luck in the first game; It is certainly time that one of these tight games ever goes out happily in our favor.

"Oh well, again Hannover against Wolfsburg! This is really always a great football match." Nobody in Wolfsburg, Hannover or the rest of Germany. Ever.

shape

Against Dortmund, VfL has shown a good performance, but not rewarded. Overall, the team is in good shape after the English week, perhaps even a surprise return of long-term injured Felix Klaus against his former club is on the way.

emotional state

Wolfsburg has every chance in Hannover to take points. Nobody expected a good game after the cup cramp, but a defeat would be very disappointing. We will see (a boring game).

That's what the SPON expert types

By Tim Pommerenke

It is less than two weeks ago that VfL Wolfsburg beat harmless 96ers without much effort in the DFB Cup. Now the Lower Saxony duel in the league repeated. For almost four years, VfL has not lost to Hannover and there is little evidence that this will change in the current constitution of 96. Bonus tip: It will be tough.

Mood

The mood can hardly be better. Things are going well in the league - and in Lyon the team has shown that it has not only playful qualities. In addition, the lineup showed that we can vary without losing a lot of class.

shape

Another game, then break. In other words, the much cited "stress control" is unlikely to work. But of course you have to see how resilient individual players are at all, because the match in Lyon was exhausting. Especially since the FCA is a team that acts very combative. Will be tough, but the TSG will be able to counter it.

emotional state

Carefully euphoric, but Augsburg is uncomfortable. Like us, the FCA against BVB won only very unlucky. This shows that Augsburg has quality. But we too. And with the tailwind of the past games, it would actually work with a narrow victory.

Mölders shot us to a 1-0 home win against Bayern, Bobadilla a year later in the Europa League, where #keineSau something dared. In short, the FCA and me, that's a great love.

Mood

The point loss in the last minutes against Nuremberg annoying. But the team has often drawn strength from such annoying gameplay. Hoffenheim still does not feel like a construction opponent.

shape

Hahn's failure is unpleasant, but Gregory can probably be there. The past games and opponents were tough, one almost thinks, the air would be out of the Augsburgers. But the coaching staff gets back in again.

emotional state

Hoffenheim is great on it and hard to figure out for Baum. Nominally stronger opponents are the FC Augsburg this season, but countable is not always out of it. You should be happy about a good game and a division of points.

That's what the SPON expert types

By Tim Pommerenke

The TSG Hoffenheim fought a draw in Wednesday's Champions League after a sensational comeback in Lyon. As nice as this success was for the team of Julian Nagelsmann, it should have cost a lot of strength as well. Augsburg will exploit that and bring three points to Sinsheim.

Two bankruptcies in a row - and the appearance in Mainz was really bad, especially in the first half. Werder is not the top team she wants to be. The first critics are getting louder, but the ball should be kept flat.

shape

Unusual blunders of the service providers underlined the lousy appearance in Mainz. Everyone is fit, but are all in good shape? Matter of opinion. Maybe we will see the new dream duo Pizarro-Jojo-Eggestein storm against Gladbach.

emotional state

If we show no other face against Gladbach, the next home clap follows. Fortunately, no scooter sounds in the Weserstadion. However, I expect a reaction from the team and expect at least one point.

Relief prevails in Mönchengladbach. The victory against Dusseldorf was after the bankruptcies in Freiburg and the Cup against Leverkusen important in several respects. So it goes with confidence to Bremen.

shape

The return of Alassane Pléa has returned the team a quality that will also be in demand against Werder. The Frenchman is the player who makes the difference, even if he does not hit himself.

emotional state

Although Borussia is currently second in the table, there are still doubts about how solid the team really is. Werder is a real touchstone in this respect. Bremen was worth a trip in the recent past and the constellation promises a real top game in which for Borussia is something in it.

That's what the SPON expert types

By Tim Pommerenke

The fact that Borussia is in second place in the league, she has mainly thanks to their home strength. Up to now, she has only won one win, but in the Munich Arena. In Bremen, Dieter Hecking's team will have a hard time and travel back to Mönchengladbach with one point.

Instead of giving the emotional claqueur to this footballing spectacle, I just do not want to pretend that nothing has happened.

One could look forward to a 1-1 draw in Munich, to be pleased about the games against Leverkusen, Hertha, Gladbach and Bayern. Could.

The indiscipline that had angered so much in the past week turned out to be a storm in a glass of water. The team is intact and proved this against Bremen with an impressive (running) performance.

shape

After the goalless and winless series have been ticked off, we turn to the away weakness: Only one counter was previously retracted abroad, and in the past two seasons this was hardly better with twelve away points.

emotional state

Freiburg is our favorite opponent: four defeats in 18 Bundesliga matches proudly ten victories. After all, four of them arrive in Breisgau. If we finish somewhere the mentioned Auswärtsmisere, then here.

That's what the SPON expert types

By Tim Pommerenke

Mainz 05 has ended his series of seven unsuccessful matches with a home win against Bremen. In the distance, the team of Sandro Schwarz could get only one point in Nuremberg this season. Freiburg played in this season at home almost always convincing and will get no problem with Mainz.

Mies would be bragging. Where should the hope come from? Of bad passes in construction that lead to goals? Badly beaten flanks that can not find a taker? From unplaced shots on the opponent's goal? Maybe the Dusseldorf herbal liqueur "Killepitsch", which is now available in a limited Fortuna edition, will help. 18.95 € for the mind.

shape

Fortuna is now off officially from the second half of the game. The judiciary have already checked that. So at least the regular humiliations after 46 minutes have an end. On the penalty gifts to the opponents - last four in five games - I could also do without.

Drive on, pick up the swat, drive back. It starts to annoy. If only there was a way out, then hope would remain, see above. Until then, only help: more schnapps (see above)!

Hertha also plays soccer - you just do not notice it at the moment. The escalated confrontation between management and Ultras overshadows everything sporty. Banner ban, mood boycott, ad against Michael Preetz - it's all there to make hannovereske circumstances arise. A dialogue is not in sight.

shape

Then we have to take care of sports, but it does not look too bright. No victory in the past four games, most recently a 0-3 swat against Leipzig. The formidable players like Duda or Dilrosun deliver only average performances, and real achievers like Plattenhardt slip into a crisis of form. Tidy sand in blue-white gear.

emotional state

Three points, no matter how! We finally need a victory again - as a breast release for the inhibited-looking team and as an emotional boost for the entire situation between the club and the fans. And hey, Dusseldorf has always been a good place for us! It will be an absolutely disgusting game that Hertha has to win over fight and a little bit of individual class.

That's what the SPON expert types

By Tim Pommerenke

With only one win of the season Fortuna Dusseldorf is on the last place in the table. The newcomer is for Hertha, who had started strongly into the season and recently weakened a bit, the ideal construction opponent. Clear thing: away win Berlin.

While they lost two points against Frankfurt in the last second, they won against Augsburg. The team has the fans on their side, as they never got stuck and fought back for both the FCA and in Rostock for arrears. Now it's against the rear light. And for the team is nothing more than a victory in their own words in question.

shape

Time is running out for Ishak. Valentini and lions are still missing injured. However, the bank has recently shown that it can replace the failures. Misidjan will continue to drive the offensive. The question remains whether the FCN finally gets its form over 90 minutes on the court.

emotional state

Stuttgart staggers to Nuremberg. The FCN wants to and has to seize this opportunity and enter a very important threesome in the fight for relegation. That will work and could even lead to a high victory at an early goal.

While others fight until they drop (see above), ours often fall over before the fight even begins. Perfectly finished laugh number. Even our excellent World Champion Pavard can be seen to have no desire to kick in such a cucumber troop.

It can not get any worse - you think after every game. But: Nuremberg is our collar size. Somehow we take the lead and manage to save at least a point over time. And that keeps us artificially alive until Jürgen Klinsmann flies in and works wonders. If he does not prefer his miracles in Berlin.

Well, now there was the first damper. Away, against Atlético Madrid. Honestly? There are worse things. The game was a good location - against the "big ones", we still just need our best performance to stand up to them. But hardly anyone should be able to prepare sleepless nights for this defeat.

shape

The gaps in the squad are gradually filling up again. Lukasz Piszczek returned to the starting lineup and Kagawa made his comeback in the Regionalliga (four assists in a 5-0 win over RWE). Apart from Marcel Schmelzer, the coach against the Munich is likely to draw on the full.

emotional state

It would be presumptuous to count on a win. In the past, Bayern were often able to regain their strength and underpin their supremacy. Due to our quite comfortable distance I am still amazingly relaxed. And who knows? On a good day, BVB can beat any opponent.

Mood

FC Bayern have won five of their last six games. But it feels different. Playful convincing was not a match against partly unterklassige opponents. A kind of spirit of optimism could not be generated in the last days. Bayern is increasingly dissolving into its components. It's not just Niko Kovac. The squad he has available has in parts exceeded his zenith.

shape

Kovac did not try tactically to compensate for Thiago's defeat by Freiburg, but instead to compensate Joshua Kimmich in midfield. This brought more structure in phases, but Kimmich had a bad day and won in defensive midfield almost no duel. It is unlikely that this solution will get a second chance in Dortmund, of all places.

emotional state

For the first time in more than five years, FC Bayern drive as a blatant outsider to Dortmund. The mission is mitigation. A draw on Munich side would probably take everyone involved with a kiss. Due to the many tactical inadequacies, this seems almost impossible. It will rather go to the height of the Dortmund victory.

That's what the SPON expert types

By Tim Pommerenke

This duel was not so open for a long time. If you look at the season and the performance of both teams, BVB is even easier favorite. How to put the Borussia in front of problems, Atlético has shown during the week. However, FC Bayern will not be able to duplicate this strategy and will again encounter problems against a strong opponent. Dortmund takes the home win in the top game.

Julian Nagelsmann said a few weeks ago that he had decided on RB, because one could still shape the club. Ralf Rangnick is currently doing everything in his power to stamp his mark on the club before that. But wait, even in the preseason, the break came after a very good start until the end of November.

shape

The zero is. Game by game. No matter who is ultimately in the starting eleven. The team fits very well. The fact that Forsberg has been missing for a long time and that players who have been troubled over and over again, could be a problem in the long run.

emotional state

What you get from Leverkusen, you never really know. An unbelievably good offensive series, which can also unbelievably often collapse in tight situations. Four goals or four goals, you could almost dub what you achieved against Bayer.

Disappointment after the 0: 1 by Pavel Kuka and the threat of relegation, huge jubilation after the equalization by Markus Münch and thus achieved relegation.

There is a mix of confusion and disillusionment. The glittering canter victories against Bremen and Gladbach followed the sobering 1: 4 against Hoffenheim. No one knows how it goes now. It is all very unsatisfactory.

It was not a bad game for the team. The Werkself beat Hoffenheim in almost all categories covered by the statistics. Not at the gates. And they count.

emotional state

The starting position is similar to before the game against Bremen. Disappointed Leverkusen compete with strong Leipzigers. With a little more efficiency in front of the opponent's goal, there is something against RB. Gates are guaranteed.

That's what the SPON expert types

By Tim Pommerenke

Since losing to Dortmund on Matchday 1, Leipzig has not lost in the league. Against Hertha, the team showed last fantastic football. Leverkusen got intoxicated at the games in Bremen and the Cup in Mönchengladbach, but then lost clearly against Hoffenheim. Bayer seems to be not consistent enough to win against strong Leipzig, but draws.

"Look, a Schalke with a good mood!" A sentence that was barely heard at all in the relatively young season.After the catastrophe start in the league, however, royal blue has caught. That was sorely needed. The mood threatened to topple over the past few weeks. Now match style and results together again.

shape

Coach Domenico Tedesco has not changed much. His players are now meeting again. The defense has also recovered to its old strength. Schalke starts to score consistently. However, without Oczipka, Baba and Mendyl - the trio is injured or still behind. Ralf Fährmann (groin) will be back in goal.

emotional state

Now it goes to the reigning cup winner. Eintracht Frankfurt is waiting and is in a good mood. The squad of Adi Hütter is in good shape, has recently shot the VfB 3: 0. If Frankfurt were in a bad mood, I would probably be more worried about the result. Paradox, I know. And besides, it would be nice again, with another to provide for people in a bad mood, right?

Too bad for Schalke. Just the team had caught after a catastrophe start, there it must travel to Frankfurt. In Eintracht, there will be little to gain for the runner-up. It will be a close game that will decide the home team for themselves.
