Bayern Munich	Borussia Dortmund	RB Leipzig	Borussia Mönchengladbach

Bayern enjoyed a magnificent Rückrunde to storm to the title leaving Borussia Dortmund to finish second for the second year in a row. The first season under Julian Nagelsmann saw RB Leipzig claim third with Marco Rose steering Borussia Mönchengladbach into the Champions League in his debut season.

Bayer Leverkusen	TSG Hoffenheim	VfL Wolfsburg	SC Freiburg

Bayer Leverkusen had the disappointment of missing out on the top four and losing in the DFB Pokal final. Hoffenheim sacked their coach just before the season concluded, but still claimed a Europa League berth and will be joined by Wolfsburg. It was another top season from Christian Streich’s Freiburg, who continue to surprise.

Eintracht Frankfurt	Hertha Berlin	Union Berlin	Schalke 04

It was a strange season for Eintracht as they waivered between relegation and Europe. Hertha had a soap opera type season with four coaches employed, but they just about finished above city rivals Union, who survived their debut Bundesliga season. Schalke endured a torrid Rückrunde and face an uncertain future financially.

Mainz 05	1.FC Köln	FC Augsburg	Werder Bremen

Mainz, Köln and Augsburg all achieved safety, while for Werder it took the relegation play-off to avoid humiliation. Unfortunately for Fortuna and Paderborn it will the 2.Bundesliga next season.
