Bayer Leverkusen Preview – Can Leverkusen move into top four?
Although recent results have been a bit sketchy for Saturday’s hosts, Bayer Leverkusen, they know that all three points against second from bottom club, Mainz, could see them move up into the top four of the Bundesliga.
Leverkusen have managed to win just two out of their last eight matches overall which came in the form of wins against Borussia Dortmund and Stuttgart, but five defeats within this period have seen the hosts suffer losses against Bayern Munich, Eintracht Frankfurt, Union Berlin, Wolfsburg and RB Leipzig.
Leverkusen have lost just twice at home though within an overall record of 5-3-2 21/13 and three of their five wins to date have seen the hosts beat the -1 asian handicap line.
Mainz Preview – Can Mainz ease relegation fears?
Despite winning two of their last three matches in the Bundesliga, Saturday’s visitors, Mainz, still remain in the relegation zone in the German top flight and four points adrift of safety prior to this tough looking trip away to Leverkusen.
Wins against RB Leipzig and Union Berlin have been impressive results but both of these victories were achieved on home turf at their OPEL ARENA, while results away from home have been extremely poor as Mainz have registered just one win on their travels all season.
A poor away record of 1-2-6 9/21 includes just the one win at Freiburg but they’ve managed just one clean sheet on the road all season and Mainz possess the joint second worst defensive record away from home in the Bundesliga.
