Bayer Leverkusen Preview – Can Leverkusen close gap?
Bayer Leverkusen find themselves five points adrift of 2nd placed Borussia Dortmund prior to this Sunday afternoon’s clash with Cologne but the hosts may reduce this deficit to just two points with a win and if other results go their way.
Leverkusen have produced some encouraging results of late in the German top flight as the hosts have lost just one of their last eight matches overall while also picking up five wins in the process and this has thrust Leverkusen into serious contention for a Champions League spot for next season.
Leverkusen have also won 5 of their last 7 games on home soil too.
Cologne Preview – Can Cologne make push?
Cologne currently sit outside of the top six in the Bundesliga in 8th place and find themselves five points adrift of 6th placed Freiburg so the visitors also require a win here on Sunday in order to further their own European ambitions for next season.
However, with just two wins out of their last seven games overall, both of which were gained on home soil against Freiburg and Eintracht Frankfurt, while also losing three of these games as well, Cologne look to have their work cut out at Leverkusen in this encounter.
In addition, Cologne have won just two of their last 13 away games in the Bundesliga.
