Bayer Leverkusen vs Borussia Dortmund Predictions

• Nine of the previous 11 H2H encounters went over 2.5 goals.
• Eight of the last ten of Borussia Dortmund’s Bundesliga games have produced over 2.5 goals.
• Leverkusen have won their last five Bundesliga matches.

An exhilarating affair expected in Leverkusen

Xabi Alonso seems to finally be getting a tune from his Bayer Leverkusen players as they enter this huge match on the back of a five-game winning run of league games, scoring at least twice in each game during that sequence.

The Eternal Bridesmaids are one of only two sides along with Wolfsburg to have picked up maximum points across the last five games ahead of this round, yet they’re sure to face a much tougher challenge than usual as they welcome German giants Borussia Dortmund.

The visitors have won both of their league games since the restart but those results haven’t came without a bit of adversity along the way. Edin Terzic’s men conceded three equalisers before winning 4-3 in the first game back before coming from behind to win at Mainz in midweek, both results suggest that this game could well be just as open and exciting.

Going for goals could be the safer play

Leverkusen’s rotten start to the campaign is now firmly in the rear-view mirror and whilst they are seven points in arrears of Dortmund, they’ll be desperate for a crucial three points that will help reel the top-four sides in.

Rather than backing a winner between two of the most impressive sides since the Bundesliga restart, we’re going for a BTTS & over 2.5 goals selection in this Sunday evening encounter. However, we’re siding with Leverkusen to win by a 3-2 scoreline to complete our selections.
