While NFL betting players are waiting for their football season to start, the futbol on the other side of the pond is getting ready to begin as well, and in the Bundesliga, you’ll hear plenty of the names that made a splash in Germany’s run to a third-place result in the World Cup in South Africa.  Here’s a look at how the Bundesliga season will pan out.

Perennial favorites and defending champion (as well as Champions League finalists) Bayern Munich should once again lead the league’s odds, and Bastian Schweinsteiger put himself in the conversation of Europe’s best midfielders with a phenomenal tournament in South Africa.  Arjen Robben was at his infuriating best, Thomas Muller won the Young Player award at the tournament, while Philip Lahm put in a performance fit for a captain.  Like many college football betting options, Bayern is still a young team, but they’ve been together for a while now, and they have a veteran presence in Miroslav Klose, who showed in South Africa that he can still score.

Bayer Leverkusen underlined their signal to threaten in the Bundesliga with their signing of Michael Ballack, who played there from 1999 to 2002.  Ballack was injured on the eve of the World Cup, and many people feel (including German legend Fran Beckenbauer) that the team played better without Ballack, who was the captain before the armband was given to Lahm.  Ballack’s heard the stories, and you can bet that he’ll be hungry this year.  Stefan Kiebling was second in Germany with 21 goals last season.

Soccer betting players could look at Werder Bremen and Hamburg, and say they’re going in opposite directions in the Bundesliga.  Mesut Ozil was a monster in South Africa and has pledged his allegiance to the club, while Claudio Pizzaro, who notched 16 goals last year, is still in town.  Hamburg lost top scorer Kevin Kuryani to Russia, and that leaves a big hole in their roster.

Honestly, it’s going to take a big effort to overtake Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.  They’ve got talent all through the squad, and it’s talent that is still improving with age.  They’ve also got the right amount of experience, and they have hard players like Mark Van Bommel (who definitely made a name for himself among non-soccer fans with his rough play in South Africa with the Netherlands) to co-exist with the likes of Robben.  They also have the league’s best defense, but they may still be worried with keeper Hans-Jorg Butt, who turned 36 yards old in May.  Still, it doesn’t matter if they try to bleed in a younger keeper, Bayern Munich should be your online betting pick in Germany this year.

I said it before last week and I’m going to say it again, beware who you back in these final stages of the season as some sides have things to play for other don’t.  Sunday is the final day of the Championship season, with a crucial relegation battle taking place at Hillsborough between Sheffield Wednesday and Crystal Palace – the loser goes down, or Wednesday do if its a draw – Needless to say I won’t be touching that one!  I’ll probably be watching it though…

We’ve got to that point in the season where the fixtures get harder to predict, you’ve got some teams still fighting and others who have nothing to play for which can throw up some surprising results.  I’ll try and avoid those particular banana skins in this blog, but be wary of it in your own betting.  For example, normally I would expect Charlton to fairly comfortably get past Exeter, but Exeter are hovering just above the relegation zone – so I’ll be leaving that one well alone!

Now we’re getting towards the end of the season different factors come into the game and indeed betting.  Some teams have little to play for or are still in cup competitions and as such may rest their squads – always consider what the team has to play for.  I managed to get three out of four last time, so hopefully I can continue my good form.
