Bayer Leverkusen will head into the game in an okay form, considering the recent results of the team. Bayer Leverkusen is still considered a great team in Germany and will be hoping to carry that into a match with a lesser-known team in the Bundesliga. Bayer Leverkusen averages 2.5 goals per game and also concedes 0.8 goals when considering the last six games played. A good sign for Leverkusen is the fact that the team has been ruthless, especially when playing away from home.
It is largely thanks to the brilliance of Xabi Alonso that Leverkusen have found a style of play that they can identify with. The style typically combines possession-based with very quick transitions while having a solid defence. The midfield mostly controls the game and feeds the attack line. It seems Leverkusen might not be able to usurp Bayern Munich but they will surely give it a try.
Bayer Leverkusen: Lineup
Bayer Leverkusen will approach this game high on confidence but with caution due to the many draws recently and the absences of a few players that could potentially impact the squad depth and tactical flexibility. Mario Hermoso, who is a key defensive signing, is missing through injury as well as Martin Terrier and Jeanuel Belocian. Despite the unavailability of these three players, the core of the first team is available and ready to go, and this will be great news for Xavi Alonso as he will have enough quality players on the field.
Xavi Alonso will maintain his fluid 3-5-2 formation that helps the team be fluid and press high up the pitch. With Schick and Boniface available, the attack will be fluid. Leverkusen will control the game with this formation.
🔖 Bayer Leverkusen predicted lineup (3-5-2)
Hrádecký – Tah, Tapsoba, Hincapié – Frimpong, Palacios, Xhaka, Grimaldo, Garcia – Tella, Schick
⛔️ Out: Mario Hermoso, Martin Terrier, Jeanuel Belocian (all injured)
👤 Head coach: Xabi Alonso

FC Augsburg: form and statistics
FC Augsburg once again managed to get a draw against Eintracht Frankfurt and continues to impressively turn things around to build a reputation this season as a side that is tricky to break down, especially at home. At the WWK Arena, Augsburg has won 7 and drawn 7, proving that the team is consistent and very difficult to defeat at home. The results also show that the team can grind out results when needed, even against strong opponents, as victory over Borussia Dortmund.
Augsburg averages 1.1 goals scored and conceded per game, but they make it count by securing narrow wins as the team looks well-drilled at the back, meaning any goal can be effectively protected. Augsburg sits in 10th position and is safe from relegation, but will be eager to maintain the momentum this season.
FC Augsburg: Lineup
FC Augsburg will once again play their reliable and well-structured 3-4-2-1 formation that earned the team against high-flying Eintracht Frankfurt. The up-and-coming Kabadayı is unavailable due to injury, while Maier is suspended after receiving a straight red card. This implies Jess Thorup will have to modify his midfield for this game.
Samuel Essende will mostly like spearhead the attack is likely spearhead the attack, with Alexis Claude and Fredrik Jensen providing support from the wings. The midfield double pivot would call on Onyeka and Kristijan Jakic to provide the much-needed balance between defence and attack. No change is expected in defence and wing play.
🔖 FC Augsburg projected lineup (3-4-2-1)
Gilbert – Schlotterbeck, Gumny, Matsima – Wolf, Giannoulis, Onyeka, Jakic – Claude, Jensen – Essende
⛔️ Out: Arne Maier (suspended), Yusuuf Kabadayı (injured)
👤 Head coach: Jess Thorup
