Bayer Leverkusen vs Hertha Berlin Predictions

• Bayer Leverkusen have won their last five Bundesliga matches
• Leverkusen have kept only one clean sheet in their last 11 competitive matches
• Hertha have failed to score in only one of their last 13 Bundesliga away games

Leverkusen can maintain their hot streak

Bayer Leverkusen are going great guns both domestically and on the continent and they can maintain their pursuit of Bundesliga’s big two Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund with a convincing home victory over Hertha Berlin.

Leverkusen have won eight of their last nine games in all competitions – the only exception was a 1-0 defeat at Slavia Prague in the Europa League – and they have been scoring goals at a rate of knots.

Peter Bosz’s side drew their opening three league games but they have rattled off five straight wins since, scoring 13 goals in each of their last four successes.

Hertha Berlin completed a rare league double over Leverkusen last season but they have lost five of their opening eight games and they have been vulnerable defensively to the Bundesliga’s leading lights.

Hertha shipped four in defeat to Bayern, lost 2-1 at Leipzig and last weekend conceded five second-half goals at home to a destructive Dortmund outfit.

With Matheus Cunha spearheading their attack, however, there is always hope Hertha can get on the scoresheet and they may grab a consolation at the BayArena.

Leverkusen have kept only one clean sheet in their last 11 competitive matches and Hertha have failed to score in only one of their last 13 Bundesliga away games, which came on their trip to Dortmund in June of last season.

Correct score punters should take a take a chance on a 4-1 home win. Leverkusen have scored exactly four times in four of their last five encounters.
