Pre-match: [DFB Pokal: Quarterfinals] FC Bayern vs BVB "German Clasico" 27.2.13

I'ma go ahead and predict a win for BVB

If we can't beat BvB in this form when will we?
Also, we have an extra day of rest(not to mention that we rested half our starters)

Is Javi fit for wednesday?

me too, easy win, wer stoppt Reus????

50%

Is that really you dude or someone highjacked your account? I was expecting to hear too tough we get smashed by BvB, we need this guy to win.

I don't know where this javi injury thing is coming from..

Nothing was said about it, JH took him out to rest him.

As for this game, this is by far our biggest challenge so far this season..

Not 100% sure what will happen, bvb have a way of nicking a goal in on us at any time..

We gotta beat these guys finally...

No, this time I feel very pessimistisch, they're too strong 4 us and I dont joke.....

Ill watch it on replay at home on espn 3

It always amazes me on how optmistic you are ...

We'll win 3x1

I smells awkward, have some people their trousers full?

I'm not always a pessimist. But teams with BVB's pressing or chelsea's defense I feel like those teams are our kryptonite

good i can watch it at work!

Well... given the 17 point lead in the table, unless both BVB and Bayern make it to the CL final (possible, but odds aren't in favor), this very well could be the last meaningful match up between the two sides this season. This is said with all honesty, not disrespectfully, judging by the remaining fixtures. They way I see it, of the remaining 11 fixtures in the Bundesliga, Bayern would have to lose 6 of their remaining Bundesliga matches and BVB win all six of those opportunities - given the two sides remain on equal terms the other 5 matches (win, lose, or draw) - in order to surpass Bayern. Our only other meeting with BVB is the 3rd from final week of the season, and the title could be well and done with by then (knock on wood).

[Mind you, I am not statistical wizard and this is purely elementary math I am doing here; I am sure there are much better explanations than the one I present.]

I was just bragging on Friday night at my indoor game to a Pole who was sporting a Lewandowski national team t-shirt that this is one of the best fixtures in all of world football presently. It truly is watching some of the highest level soccer, both played and coached, in the modern game.

I look forward to a cracker of a match! BVB will be pumped like no other. Bayern beware!

Priorities tsk tsk.

I hope our form our hunger and our rest will see us through on weds...

We have to get this bvb monkey off our backs once and for all..

lolnice said!!!!!!!!! and I changed idea, WE WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can we not call this game the German 'Classico"?

of course duh! Its Klassiker*

*courtesy of google translate

I would have preferred a hybrid word myself, German Klassiko

Imagine we lose this and then draw BVB in the CL, the pressure will be huge.

I win against BVB will give the players more confidence for a possible clash against BVB in the CL

that would be worst case scenario, especially if we lost on Wednesday in heartbreaking fashion like blowing a late lead or just getting demolished


HOWEVER, I believe we win this one!!!
