Wolfsburg vs Bayer Leverkusen Predictions

• Wolfsburg look to have steered clear of the relegation zone and play only for places in mid-table.
• Only Bayern Munich and Dortmund picked up more away points than Bayer Leverkusen.
• Bayer Leverkusen scored a Bundesliga-high 24 goals during 2022 ahead of this round.
• Bayer Leverkusen are unbeaten in five straight visits to Wolfsburg (W4, D1).

Wolfsburg’s season is fizzling out

While Wolfsburg lost in a topsy-turvy affair against Freiburg last time out, they have essentially got themselves out of trouble and are now just playing for a potential top-half finish… a far cry from the side that began the campaign in the Champions League.

Highlighting Wolfsburg’s improvement is the fact that they have picked up half of their home points haul across their last four home league games (W2, D1, L1). However, both of those wins came against sides languishing in the bottom-five of the five-game form table.

Leverkusen’s focus returns to the Bundesliga

It was not an ideal outcome in midweek as Leverkusen were dumped out of Europe by Atalanta, though at least they can now turn their attention to getting back on track in the league to secure a Champions League berth for next season.

Heading into this on the back of a league defeat, Leverkusen will hope to bounce back given that they are yet to record consecutive league defeats in the 2021/22 campaign. Inspiring further confidence of the bounce back is their unbeaten record across five trips to Wolfsburg, along with three straight clean sheets.

We predict that Leverkusen can win this and at a brilliant value price, though Wolfsburg are certainly no pushovers and could push back. As such, we predict a narrow 2-1 margin of victory for the visitors.
