Bayer Leverkusen vs Wolfsburg Predictions

Bayer Leverkusen have scored three goals or more in ten of their 27 Bundesliga games this season and the best bet is both teams to score when they host Wolfsburg on Saturday.

They are sixth in the league table, 11 places and 25 points above their visitors. They have won 13, drawn seven and lost seven of their 27 games this season, while Wolfsburg sit 17th with five wins, six draws and 16 defeats.

Bayer Leverkusen have avoided defeat in nine of their last ten Bundesliga games, while it’s a difficult time for Wolfsburg, who have lost seven of their last nine matches.

Bayer Leverkusen threw away a late lead to draw 3-3 with Heidenheim in their last Bundesliga game, with Malik Tillman and Patrik Schick (twice) scoring for Leverkusen. The result means they have failed to win seven of the 13 games in which they have been priced odds-on this season.

Both teams to score has been a winning bet in four of Bayer Leverkusen’s last five Bundesliga games, and no team has played more matches with goals at both ends than Wolfsburg this season.

Both teams have been disappointing defensively of late. Bayer Leverkusen have been unable to keep their opponents at bay in three straight Bundesliga games, while Wolfsburg are on a run of nine away days without recording a shutout.

A 3-1 home win for Bayer Leverkusen is an appealing correct-score bet. Both teams have scored in five of Wolfsburg’s last seven Bundesliga games and in Leverkusen’s last three, and seven of Leverkusen’s 13 wins this season have been by a two-goal margin.
