Borussia Dortmund vs. Bayern München [P]+[R]

VS


The 2006/2007 Bundesliga season kicks off tomorrow with Bayern playing host to BVB. The last match between the two sides was meaningless and ended 3-3.

Dortmund usually has a hard time getting a result in Munich, but they really have a decent chance this time around. BVB has been awesome during preseason while Bayern has struggled. However, that does not mean anything anymore as both sides should be fired up to start the new season.

The big concern for BVB is the loss of Woerns who is currently serving the last two games of his four game suspension. Brezenska, who has not impressed me much at all will take his spot. Look for the Bayern forwards to attack Brezenska as much as possible.

Bayern also has some injury issues with Karimi being out and both Demichelis and Lucio listed as doubtful.

Expected starting lineups:

Bayern Munich: Kahn – Sagnol, Lucio, van Buyten, Lahm – Salihamidzic, Ottl, Hargreaves, Schweinsteiger – Makaay, Podolski

Borussia Dortmund: Weidenfeller - Degen, Brzenska, Metzelder, Dede - Kruska, Kehl, Pienaar, Kringe - Frei, Valdez

Prediction:
My heart says 3-2 Dortmund... but my head tells me 2-2 or 2-1 Bayern.

Hoping for a great season from these two:


Anyway, good luck and may the BEST team win. :ewan:

Valdez, so very beautiful.. :jambo:

Bayern 3-1
Podolski (2)
Makaay(1)
Valdez(1)

Everyone's been kinda putting Bayern down in the past couple weeks, the players haven't been taking this lightly most likely and look for them to show their true colors in this opening match. :rockman:

I predict a clear win for Bayern, dortmund have a nice team but don't really have the quality to compete with bayern at the allianz arena.

3-0

Podolski x 2 + Hargreaves

I think it's Bayern that can't compete with proper opposition at the moment.

Dortmund's defense looks a bit shaky on paper. Our only chance to get anything out of this match is if we score an early goal like we often did against BVB in the last years.

We'll get overrun in the second half anyway due to the lack of fitness. meh :rolleyes:

Oh wow, Makaay hits the post 20 seconds in.


Edit: 15th minute, Kehl is off. Looks like a leg injury. Sahin is on.
Edit: 24th minute, Makaay scores from just outside the area. 1-0 Bayern. Makaay looks good today.

****!! The Kehl injury looks very serious. He was in so much pain after going down.... DAMN IT THAT IS A PLAYER WE CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE!

Anyway, Makaay looks good. Pienaar is active and Dede is playin well.

But WTF was CMetze thinking when he gave Makaay so much space when he hit the post????

2-0 Bayern. Schweinsteiger. Lahm runs down the left, cuts the ball inside to Schweinsteiger, low shot from outside the box.

Alright. 20 minutes to go, but this makes me feel a little better. What is the lineup? Is Hargreaves playing central mid?

I just realized Ottl was playing. He hasn't seen ANY of the ball or been involved at all.


EDit: Podolski is finally on, 88th minute.

Pretty even game.

Degen was pathetic. What the hell was he doing on that second goal. And Kringe couldnt pass a ball for ****. Smolarek always makes sure to show us how not to finish! :ewan:
