What is the story about?
The weekend’s action kicks off tonight with Bayern Munich facing a side they’ve made a habit of struggling against: Borussia Mönchengladbach. Predicting Ball doesn’t see it being close, though. The model gives Bayern Munich an 85% win probability, and predicts that they will put up a whopping 3.05 expected goals, compared to Die Fohlen’s project 0.75 expected goals. Hopefully Gladbach can make it closer than that.
Here is the rest of this weekend’s Bundesliga schedule:
Friday:
- Bayern Munich vs Borussia Mönchengladbach
Saturday:
- Heidenheim vs Hoffenheim
- Freiburg vs Bayer Leverkusen
- Mainz vs VfB Stuttgart
- RB Leipzig vs Augsburg
- Wolfsburg vs Hamburger SV
- FC Köln vs Borussia Dortmund
Sunday:
- St. Pauli vs Eintracht Frankfurt
- Union Berlin vs Werder Bremen
The same
rules apply as the BVB match threads, though I’m hoping tempers are less likely to flare in these threads. But as a reminder, here are the match thread rules:
- Exercise common sense. We allow profanity, adult humor, and other forms of crudeness within reason, but of course there are lines. Hateful language will not be tolerated. Exceptionally violent language (especially directed at specific people) will not be tolerated. Before you type, ask yourself, “Would I have a reasonable expectation of being thrown out of a bar in an average city if I said something like this?”
- Be respectful. There will definitely be times when everyone is upset and disagreements get heated, and that’s fine, but remember that we’re all rooting for the same team. Keep arguments based on substance and not personal insults.
- No sharing illegal streams. NONE. Zero tolerance.
- No spam. I have no interest in whatever crypto scheme you’re shilling. You will be banned.
Enjoy the game! Heja BVB!
