Bundesliga matchday 21: Kovac faces difficult first test, Gladbach take on Frankfurt, St Pauli look to cause havoc in Leipzig
On this week's Gegenpressing Bundesliga preview podcast, Manu and Stefan are back to discuss the major talking points ahead of matchday 21. They begin by discussing Borussia Dortmund's home clash with Stuttgart and whether new head coach Niko Kovac will be able to take advantage of a Swabian side that have had to contend with a difficult fixture list in recent weeks and don't look at their best on the road. They then preview Eintracht Frankfurt's trip to Borussia Park, where the Foals will be hoping to put a serious dent in their opponents Champions League aspiration, while continuing their own impressive march up the table. The duo then wrap up the show by taking a look at St Pauli's trip to RB Leipzig on Sunday and why the Hamburg minnows may be capable of an almighty upset in Saxony, despite losing their main striker to injury.

Bayern and Leverkusen get sloppy, Dortmund step back from the brink & why nobody wants to finish in the top four
On this week’s main Gegenpressing podcast Manu and Stefan round-up the biggest stories from matchday 20 of the Bundesliga. They begin with Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich’s continued title challenge, as both German giants picked up all three points but did so in rather unconvincing performances. Could defensive problems in both teams decide who wins the Bundesliga this season? The pair then take a look at Gladbach’s 2-1 win over Stuttgart and RB Leipzig’s 0-0 draw with Union Berlin and consider why the Bundesliga table is still so wide open from second place all the way down to twelfth. They then wrap up the show by analysing Dortmund’s 2-1 win over Heidenheim and what the current state of their squad means for new manager Niko Kovac.
On this week’s preview show Manu and Stefan threw tradition to the wind and instead revelled in the transfer window chaos that is engulfing the Bundesliga. They begun the show by discussing Bayern Munich’s decision to sell Mathys Tel, with the club accepting a €60m offer from Tottenham for the young striker. They then moved on to discuss whether Niko Kovac is the right man to pull Borussia Dortmund out of their mess. Then, to wrap things up, they then broke down Xavi Simons’ permanent transfer to RB Leipzig and why the Saxony club were more than happy to spend €55m plus potentially much more on the young playmaker. Enjoy!

In this episode of the Gegenpressing Podcast, hosts Manuel Veth and Stefan Bienkowski discuss the latest developments in the Bundesliga, focusing on the struggles of Borussia Dortmund against Werder Bremen in their 2-2 draw and why the German giants are still struggling despite sacking Nuri Sahin. They then discuss Bayer Leverkusen’s 2-2 draw with RB Leipzig and breakdown why Xabi Alonso’s side have lost ground in the title race and don’t look like the same, unbeaten side that won the title last season. They then wrap up the show by highlighting Bayern Munich’s impressive 2-1 win over Freiburg and why Vincent Kompany perhaps deserves more credit than he’s received in his debut season at the Munich club.
