Bayer Leverkusen vs RB Leipzig Prediction: Leverkusen may get another win

Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig will clash in a tense Bundesliga encounter which will go to great lengths to secure their places at the top of the standings. Leverkusen have been in excellent form, winning most of their matches at BayArena this season. Their attack has been very effective as it averages more than two goals per game. A creative midfield, which also does well in ball retention, has further supported this offensive output that makes them very strong at home; they rarely concede too many goals during home matches compared with away ones hence making them solid defensively. Therefore, such a defensive strategy could be vital when facing a powerful Leipzig team.

RB Leipzig arrives at this encounter boasting a remarkable record on the road, having achieved numerous victories away from home this term. Dani Olmo and Timo Werner head the Leipzig offense and have been in sensational form contributing to an impressive number of goals for the team so far this season. If they are able to disrupt Leverkusen's buildup play, Leipzig’s playing style which involves high pressing as well as swift transitions might just work well against their defense. Leipzig usually scores early in games thereby making it hard for opponents but their defence has its weaknesses especially when dealing with teams that can keep possession and attack quickly as is the case with Leverkusen.

With those stats, this game could very well have many goals scored as both teams are likely to take attack-oriented approaches towards it. Although Leverkusen may seem to be slight favourites due to home advantage and impressive form, Leipzig’s ability to perform well away from home along with their pressing strategies imply that they stand a chance of achieving a better result than themselves. 

Bayer Leverkusen

Under manager Xabi Alonso, they have adopted a fluid and aggressive style that emphasizes quick transitions and high pressing.

In front of cheering fans in the stands, early domination attempts to convert chances into goals would be made towards exploiting their attacks
