It's Bayern Munich and Everybody Else in Bundesliga This Season

Published on July 5th, 2015 8:17 pm EST
Bayern Munich is looking for their fourth straight Bundesliga title this year when the season gets underway in mid-August.

Over the past ten years, Bayern Munich has won seven Bundesliga titles - as a matter of fact, their worst finish over the past decade came in 2006-07, when they finished in fourth with a record of 18-6-10.

While Bayern Munich slowed down somewhat last season (mainly due to a number of key injuries), they still managed to easily win the title. To show how dominant the franchise has been over the past three years, Bayern Munich finished last season with a record of 24-4-5, and that produced a point total that was 14 behind the previous season. In short - even when Bayern Munich "struggles", they still win.

According to the bookmakers, Bayern Munich will almost certainly win Bundesliga this season.

Here are the odds for the top 5 teams to win:

Bayern Munich, 1.06
Borussia Dortmund, 17.00
Wolfsburg, 21.00
Bayer Leverkusen, 41.00
Borussia M'gladbach, 51.00

According to these odds, Bayern Munich has a 94.34% chance of winning their fourth straight Bundesliga title. Borussia Dortmund, which had such a strong club just a few short years ago (remember, they went to the Champions League final and lost to Bayern Munich), is seen as having a 5.88% chance of winning, and even that seems quite optimistic.

Can anybody overcome the powerhouse from Bayern Munich this season, or are they destined to win another title?
