Bayer Leverkusen Over 2.5 Team Goals

Reason for tip

Heidenheim have been attacking since winning promotion but it’s left plenty of gaps at the back. That’s an issue against Bayer Leverkusen, who are arguably the most complete side in the Bundesliga right now. The hosts have scored 13 goals across their four matches this term and they can rack up a few more this weekend.

Bayer Leverkusen 4-2

Reason for tip

Heidenheim have scored at least twice in each of their last three games, while Bayer Leverkusen’s impressive attacking record should see them comfortably outscore the newly-promoted visitors. As a result, back the hosts to edge a high-scoring contest.

Bayer Leverkusen vs Heidenheim Predictions

  • Bayer Leverkusen have scored 13 goals across their first four league games this term
  • The hosts have scored at least three times in each of their home games this season
  • Heidenheim have conceded nine times across their first four league games

Bayer positioning for a title push

Bayer Leverkusen are enjoying their best start to a Bundesliga season for 14 years with 10 points after four games, with Xabi Alonso completely turning around a side which crawled out of the gate this time last year.

Alonso’s side went blow-for-blow with Bayern last week and they followed that up with an impressive 4-0 win over Hacken in midweek. The hosts are in brilliant scoring form, netting 13 goals over the first four games of this Bundesliga season, equalling a club record set in 1986/87. Across the Bundesliga, only Bayern have a higher xG than them so far.

Visitors to be overwhelmed

Heidenheim have thrilled since winning promotion but they could prove too naive to challenge the hosts this weekend. The visitors have conceded nine times in their first four Bundesliga fixtures – the most by a top-flight newcomer since Energie Cottbus in 2000/01 (10).

Bayer are averaging over three per game and they have scored at least three goals in all three home games this season. While the visitors are fresh off a win, facing Leverkusen is one of the biggest challenges in the division right now and they should struggle to contain the high-scoring hosts.
