I'm thinking about the user's claim regarding the new season and how they might be referring to relegation implications. It's essential to focus on the three teams mentioned without challenging their statement.
Mainz is at the bottom, which brings up relegation concerns; teams in 17th and 18th place are automatically relegated, while the 16th team goes to the playoff against a team from 2.Bundesliga.
I also need to remember the tie-breakers; they follow goal difference, then goals scored, and finally head-to-head results. However, to avoid confusion, I'll skip discussing the detailed rules for now.Clarifying Bundesliga tie-breakers
I think the Bundesliga uses goal difference first, then goals scored, and finally the head-to-head record between tied teams. Some sources suggest head-to-head comes after the other two metrics, but I'll keep it simple for now.
I can offer updated standings, fixtures, team form, or Elo ratings. It seems like the best approach is to acknowledge the user’s statement and ask if they'd like a full table or analysis.

I can also provide some context in bullet points, and then ask if they want me to grab the latest table now.
