If Leverkusen wins the next game, it will be the first time in the club’s history to reach the top of the German Bundesliga.

“Bayer Leverkusen is set to win its first Bundesliga championship in German club history,” soccer media outlet “90min” reported on Tuesday. “If a specific scenario emerges, the championship will be confirmed.”

“After Bayern Munich’s 2-3 defeat at Heidenheim, Leverkusen is leading Munich by 16 points. Stuttgart, which has the same points as Munich, still has a chance of winning the championship,” the media reported.

Munich lost 2-3 in the 28th round of the German Bundesliga in the 2023/24 season held at the Foyt Arena in Heidenheim, Germany on Wednesday. In contrast, Leverkusen won the match 1-0. Munich had only 60 points and Leverkusen had 76 points.

Leverkusen seems to be virtually assured of its victory. “It is clear. There is no more hope. Congratulations on Leverkusen,” Munich coach Thomas Tuchel also admitted. “Honestly, it was a difficult moment,” said Munich striker Thomas Müller. “After losing Bundesliga matches in a row, I lost a lot of confidence.”

Of course, there is still a possibility that Munich and Stuttgart will come from behind to win. However, the probability is very low. Leverkusen’s victory may be confirmed according to the results of the next round.

“90min” delivered three scenarios in which Leverkusen’s victory could be confirmed. “It is the simplest scenario,” the media said. “It is Leverkusen’s victory over Werder Bremen.”

If Leverkusen win against Werder Bremen in the next round, it will maintain a minimum gap of 16 points with its rivals, regardless of the outcome of other matches. There are only five remaining league matches after the end of the next round.

Only 15 points are available to other teams during the remaining five games. In other words, if Leverkusen only adds one win, it cannot surpass Leverkusen’s points even if other teams win all of their remaining league games.

The second scenario is when Munich and Stuttgart lose. “If Munich and Stuttgart lose, their championship will be decided,” the media said. “Even if Leverkusen loses for the first time in this season, they are still in the lead.” Even if all three teams lose, Leverkusen will definitely win.

The final scenario is that both Munich and Stuttgart draw. The media outlet added, “If Munich and Stuttgart draw, Leverkusen will have enough of a draw. However, if Leverkusen wins a draw and one of the other two teams wins, the decision to win the championship will be postponed for a while.”

If Leverkusen wins against Werder Bremen on the 15th, it will be at the top of the Bundesliga for the first time in the club’s history. 토토사이트 추천
