As of late, some bookies are offering the market for Bayernliga. So, what is Bayernliga? It's German fourth level league in the state of Bavaria (5th level would be Landesliga and 6th level is Bezirksliga). There are 16 teams in the league. Each team in the league plays each other twice, home and away. After regular season, top 8 teams go to play-off (best-of-three) and bottom 8 teams go to play-down to determine which teams will be relegated. The champion is promoted to Oberliga.
Wikipedia brings an interesting table with all teams that played in Bayernliga since year 2000 and their placings:

RL-club played in the Regionalliga (IV) (league now defunct), OL-club played in the Oberliga (III), BL-club played in the 2nd Bundesliga (II), DEL-club played in the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (I)
The season 2008/09 is in the final stage of regular season. TSV Peißenberg is firmly seated at the top and has great home statistics (11 wins and 1 OT win in 12 matches so far). But the battle for the play-off places is quite fierce. This will bring some interesting matches and possibly some interesting bets along way.
So, how is the league covered on the Internet? Amazingly well. The start page far any analisys should be Bayernhockey.com. They have everything:
Then, for further news, you can visit Eishockey-magazine. It's not as rich as Bayernhockey, but keeps news up-to-date.
Of course there is a livescore, too. And, of course, it's part of Bayernhockey:
The last, but not the least, the list of official team links:

There are several U20 World Championsips going on at the moment. Namely, Division I A and B and Division II A.
Division I A, Herisau (Switzerland)
Estonia can not cope with the rest of the teams in this group and they are certain for relegation. Their current goal difference is -33. Poland is not much better, but nevertheless won their H2H 4:2. Both Switzerland and Belarus are untouchable here.
Articles from IIHF.com:
Division I B, Aalborg, (Denmark)
Hungary and Ukraine will try to avoid relegation, but things don't look good for Hungarian team. Austria and Denmark are still at 100%, although Denmark did not perform as well as Austria did so far.
Articles from IIHF.com:
Division II A, Miercurea Ciuc, (Romania)
I expected Japan to be main favourite for promotion (alongside with Lithuania), but they surprisingly lost to South Korea. So, Lithuania is pretty much certain for promotion with Serbia and Romania trying to avoid bottom position and (possible) relegation. The team of Belgium must be mentioned, because they preformed really well so far and had some great moments in this tournament. |

The links for Belgian ice hockey are really hard to find and that's a shame because their Cup and Championship are great to bet on. I've planned to create seperate page for Belgian league, but as the links are so scarce, I've decided to write it here:
And that's about it. Cup has some 15-ish matches left, but the Championship starts in 2 weeks (on December 12). Things haven't changed much from last season and Bulldogs are again rock bottom (although they don't get their ass kicked as hard as they were getting last season). HYC is currently firmly seated at the top, but Olympia seems to be on their way up with 5 matches without a loss.
Belgian hockey can be very rewarding when it comes to betting and I strongly suggest that you spend some time studying it. |
