Eco Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 One month away, and I'm excited. The Bundesliga's move to ESPN means all matches will be accessible to a lot more people than it was when it was on Fox (at least it'll be cheaper). The Borussia battle looks like a good one for week 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - will be interesting to see if Bremen can avoid the drop again this year. Did we do a preseason predicitons thread last year? I didn't find it, but I think we did one for @Rucksackfranzoses Prediction League, but wasn't sure if that was the only one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Stan Posted August 19, 2020 Administrator Share Posted August 19, 2020 Thanks for the table. Wasn't sure what the standings were. I suppose it'll be the only time Arminia will be at the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I predict that after game 1 you will be above us in the table Edit - No I am not accepting bets that everyone will be higher than us after game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binder Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 According to kicker, everyone's favourite team will be allowing 8500 fans to the Home Opener in Leipzig. I was thinking due to Covid, the EPL would stop buying up all the Bundesliga players, but I guess they still have transfer money. Hard to see anyone but Bayern winning for the umpteenth time, though maybe Dortmund have a chance with all the new young talent. I suspect Werder will be hovering down around the relegation spots.

What do you think are Freiburg's chances of staying up this year? I know they had a magical year last year, and it might be best they didn't qualify for Europe,, but still it must be the goal.

binder Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I like Christian Streich, one of the few really good managers out there in my opinion, so many Managers today are just TV interview stars and talking heads. He has consistently had Freiburg punching above their weight, so I think they will manage to stay up. I thought they actually were quite good last year and played good football.

I only watched a few of their matches, but I would agree they play good football. I'm just curious how much losing Koch will hurt. Like I said, I'm not sure they have the depth to be playing in Europe so it might be a tiny blessing that they avoided that Europa spot this year, although they have played in it before without being regulated. I'm really excited about this year, with ESPN showing all the matches of Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga, so I figured I get to have more exposure and what the one league I've always wanted to.

binder Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Showing 2nd div as well, that is good. I think in Kanada we are in limbo, not sure if anyone is showing Bundesliga? Last year it was Sportsnet-which was just a re broadcast of the Fox Sports US feed. With all the streams out there, I can usually find what I want to watch somewhere.

If so, I'll probably find myself without enough time to be a family man and watch any league outside of Germany I have already made a plan to watch a home match of every team this year, and I'll do the same for 2nd division if all the matches are being shown.
