Ferencvaros vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction: Can the Lions live up to their status?

Bayer will face Ferencvaros for the return leg of the Europa League Qualifying Playoff. The Lions, of course, are the favorites. Can they live up to their status?

The Hungarian team got a rather unpleasant opponent, against which they could not continue from the beginning. Ferencvaros is inferior to the competitor in the class, which was demonstrated to us by the first match in the series. The team, in principle, showed character, but in all aspects, the German club looked noticeably more convincing.

We should also consider the team's poor form before the start of the return game. Thus, over the last five games, Ferencvaros registered one win - over Debrecen (2:0), two draws - 1:1 against Kecskemet and Mezőkövesdi, and two defeats, with a total score of 1:4.

It's almost miraculous that Bayer did not drop out of the European competitions. They faced Monaco in the round of 32. There was nothing in this series - intrigue, many goals, and penalties, deciding the winner of the pair. So, on the sum of the two meetings, the Lions won with a score of 6:5. The round of 16 was noticeably easier for Bayer because the rivals were Hungarian Ferencvaros. In the first match, they showed their superiority by beating their opponent 2:0. Now they just need to keep the advantage and get to the next stage.

Bayer looks noticeably better on the field, as well as on paper. After all, the German championship is more solid than the Hungarian one, and the class of opponents is much different. In general, in our opinion, despite the Lions having an advantage by two goals, they will not play defensive football and hold the score. The club from Leverkusen will get another victory and reach the quarterfinals of the Europa League.
