When Borussia Dortmund and Leipzig couldn't win their matches i knew that Bayern Munich will feel so relaxed because even if they lose against Mainz they are still 8 points clear at the top so it's not surprising to me that they are losing. Though they might get an equalizer before the end of the game as they still have about 10 minutes to the end of the match. It's not something to worry about about because they actually needed to rest some players who were featured in their last Champions League match against Sporting Lisbon.
Even though Bayern Munich remains the favorite to win the title this season, Bayern Munich shouldn't feel relaxed to accumulate points when their rivals drop points since they don't know what the future holds. Bayern Munich should always seize the opportunity and win their match when either Leipzig or Borussia Dortmund loses their match so that they will have no chance to compete for the title. Even though Bayern Munich rested some of their key players, they should have won against Mainz since they were at home.
I agree with you but at the same time I also feel happy that they are losing some points to reduce the gap between them and other teams to make the league more interesting than it was before when they were winning everyone with ease. Result like the one they had with Mainz will motivate other teams to dream big whenever they face them because if Mainz and Union Berlin could hold them to a draw, other teams can also do it. I have no doubt that Bayern Munic will win the trophy though, but I want to see more competition for it and not the easy ride that Bayern Munic was expected to enjoy.
