Bundesliga Matchday 17 review

It's a good thing we are at the winter break since TBG needs to regroup after a tough weekend.

Friday night

Borussia Monchengladbach v. Hamburg

Prediction: 2-1
Actual result: 1-2

We knew this was going on a limb. We fell off that limb.

Saturday

Werder Bremen v. Kaiserslautern

Prediction: 2-0
Actual result: 1-2

Surely Bremen is headed for a relegation battle now.

Frankfurt v. Borussia Dortmund

Prediction: 0-2
Actual result: 1-0

Barrios misses from point-blank range and Gekas scores a minute later. That's what happens in the most exciting league on the continent.

Schalke 04 v. Koln

Prediction: 3-1
Actual result: 3-0

A matchup with Valencia awaits Schalke, who may be getting their holiday break back?

VfL Wolfsburg v. Hoffenheim

Prediction: 1-2
Actual result: 2-2

Hoffenheim wastefully throws away a two-goal lead.

Nurnberg v. Hannover 96

Prediction: 1-1
Actual result: 3-1

Just when you think Hannover is good enough for a point.

St. Pauli v. Mainz

Prediction: 2-2
Actual result: 2-4

Too much 05ers and Tuchel's bunch is hanging tough.

Sunday

Leverkusen v. Freiburg

Prediction: 2-1
Actual result: 2-2

Looks like a just result, all things considered.

VfB Stuttgart v. Bayern Munich

Prediction: 2-0
Actual result: 3-5

The first half ends with a crazy match in which Bayern could have had seven or eight.
