Leverkusen Preview – Can Nice close gap on top four?
Bayer Leverkusen’s 3-match winning streak in the German Bundesliga was brought to an abrupt halt last weekend when they were handed a 2-1 defeat away from home at Hoffenheim, so the hosts will be keen to bounce back immediately here when they return to their home turf and the BayArena.
However, this may be easier said than done for Leverkusen despite recording wins in quick succession against Mainz, Paderborn and Fortuna Dusseldorf in 1-0, 4-1 and 3-0 wins respectively which gave the hosts some much-needed momentum.
Results at home have been inconsistent in recent times as the hosts have lost 2-1 to Borussia Moenchengladbach and a 1-0 loss to Hertha Berlin, but they also picked up wins over Schalke 2-1 and a 3-0 victory over Dusseldorf.
Leverkusen’s forwards Alario (6 goals) and Voller (7 goals) should ensure the hosts at least give Dortmund a run for their money here.
Dortmund Preview – Can Dortmund draw level with Bayern Munich?
3rd placed Borussia Dortmund make their way to Leverkusen for Saturday evening’s top five clash in the German Bundesliga in confident mood as the visitors have picked up 3 wins on the trot in the top flight and will be looking to secure a fourth on the trot against an inconsistent Leverkusen outfit.
Recent wins against Augsburg 5-3 away from home as well as back-to-back home wins against Cologne and Union Berlin, both by crushing 5-1 and 5-0 margins respectively, mean that Dortmund have scored a total of 15 goals in their last 3 matches and have conceded 4 goals in reply.
Results away from home have been slightly less convincing in recent weeks as the visitors have picked up wins on the road at Hertha Berlin, Mainz and Augsburg, but have also suffered defeats at Bayern Munich and Hoffenheim amidst an overall away record that stands at 4-3-3 20/18.
Indeed, as the visitors have won just 3 of their last 9 away matches in the Bundesliga, the goals markets appeal here.
