Real 3-1 Dortmund Barca 1-2 Bayern Best case scenario would be Dortmund winning again and Bayern losing 5-0 | ||

Spain and Germany (and England for that matter) strongly resembled each other this year, both runaway champions, with another strong 2nd place team that was somewhat challenged, then somewhat of a scrap for the rest of the champions league, and then a big dropoff, with only the above teams managing positive goal differential. Right now we have: Bayern 84, +76 Dortmund 64, +40 Leverkusen 56, +21 Then Schalke, Frankfurt and Freiburg challenge for the last CL spot, and the only other ones with barely positive GDs. In Spain with 2 more games: Barcelona 85, +66 Real Madrid 74, +54 Atletico 68, +31 R. Soc. 58, +20 with Malaga and Valencia challenging with not very positive GDs, while pretty much everyone else is middling at best. England was slightly more competitive with 7 legit teams, but it was decided just as early as well. If you want an actual contrast in structure, compare these leagues with the Championship table in England. | ||

Championship is stupid league in terms of trying to predict it XD it's just mental how teams who you look at paper at the start and think yeah these will do well and they get relegated (Wolves) or do really sub par (Leeds) But i meant my comment due to fact Bundesliga only has 18 teams in it so only play 34 games a season where as Prem and LaLiga play 38. | ||

Yeah but that just makes the amount by which Bayern won more remarkable, in two fewer games they amassed far bigger lead than anyone, and there are even two teams closer to Barcelona than Dortmund is to Bayern. Bayern finished it up with 6 matches remaining, Spain isn't even officially wrapped up yet with 5 left and won't be after this one either unless RM doesn't win. | ||

Even though i know Bayern has a very good squad, their best 11 can play more often if they are just playing once a week. Take Chelsea as the big acception, playing 3 times a week for nearly 6months of the season >.< Didn't help us at all when we had to rotate our squad vs teams we should beat and up drawing/losing too xD But i guess they still have to perform as well The english season is stupidly harsh on players, its great for us but it really is quite absurd how much football they have to play. | ||

I think it's crazy that Cardiff, the winners of the Championship, have 86 points in 45 games, while Manchester United have 85 points in 35 games. As for fixture congestion in England, they should just get rid of the League Cup. Give the Europa League spot to the team that finishes 6th in the Premier League. And get rid of FA Cup replays. | ||
