Hi Chris,
seems like the Winter takes forever in Hamburg.
I am very scary of the Munich pick. Ribery will not play and they are missing with Van Buyten their best defender. Probably 19 year old Contento will play left back and Badstuber substitutes VB. Van Buyten will also be missed up front as he is very dangerous and always good for a goal.As shown against Florenz they had big problems when VB left injured.
On the other side there is Nürnberg who are fighting to stay in the league and with Breno and Ottl they have to players who are going back to Bayern after the Season is over. So, they will be very motivated to show Van Gaal that they belong in the first team. Another fact is that Nürnberg played under new Coach very good football, but were always very unlucky. And with Bunjaku they have a scorer who is red hot.
Another thing that scares me is that everybody in germany is talking about Bayern taking over first place after this weekend, because they have an easy task with Nürnberg and everybody is ecpecting Leverkusen to lose or draw against Bremen. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Bayern lose today or don't get more than a draw and i see Leverkusen winning tomorrow at Bremen.
This is just a gut feeling and of course i hope you win them all. I like a lot of picks you made, especially Hamburg (by the Way Ruud VNR is not playing at all today, they just anounced it on radio, he is injured).And i also want to play Bayern, but perhaps i change my mind. This pick scares me the most today.
cheers,
colton
