Bayer Leverkusen vs Ferencvaros Prediction: Expect a tense meeting

Bayer Leverkusen will host Ferencvaros in the first leg of the Europa League Qualifying Playoff. The Bundesliga representative is considered the unconditional favorite in the upcoming match. Let's see what Cherchesov's charges can use to put up a fight against the German club.

Bayer played in the Europa League Qualifying Playoff. The opponent for the Leverkusen club was a strong team Monaco. The Bundesliga representatives suffered an unexpected 3:2 defeat at home. The same result ended the main time of the return leg but in favor of Bayer. They were more accurate in the penalty shootout. After the return leg against Monegasque, Bayer had time to play two matches in the German championship: a 1:1 away draw against Freiburg and a 4:1 home win over Hertha. The club is only ninth in the Bundesliga.

Ferencvaros also faced Monaco in the Europa League. Their performances were on the group stage. Thanks to the victory over the Monegasques in a face-to-face encounter, the team won Group H - both clubs have ten points each. Ferencvaros approach the European stage with a nine-match winning streak. Cherchesov's club confidently leads the Hungarian league with a 14-point advantage over their closest rival.

Ferencvaros is severely underestimated in this pairing. Bayer is the favorite, but the odds are too high for the Hungarian club to win. We should not expect a lot of action, despite the statistics of the total over in the last meetings of the Leverkusen. We expect a tense encounter. We can bet on a Stanislav Cherchesov team handicap with the total under goals.
