Will the Bundesliga title race this season become extremely dull? Bayern Munich defeated Hamburg 5-0 almost in "cruise control", and they could have won by an even larger margin. It is obvious that Bayern Munich is making big strides towards claiming the Bundesliga title once again, and they are also the only team in the league to have secured 9 points in the first three matches. Most importantly: so far, only Borussia Dortmund seems to be able to act as a marginal contender.
When talking about whether the Bundesliga title race this season will become tedious due to Bayern Munich’s strength far surpassing other competitors, Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane said: “I don’t think it will be tedious. If it is, then it’s also a compliment to us. Two years ago, when we failed to win the league title, people weren’t saying that. Now there are still teams like Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, and Eintracht Frankfurt, and they will challenge us. After our match against Hamburg, we have the chance to open up a slight gap with them. It feels great to be at the top of the standings, and I hope we can continue to maintain a strong momentum.”
After three rounds of the league, Bayern Munich tops the standings, while Borussia Dortmund, 1. FC Köln, and FC St. Pauli are all in second to fourth place with 7 points each.
