Bayer Leverkusen Köln betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be for Leverkusen to win. In addition to the visible difference between the two teams, Cologne is going through an irregular moment, as it only has two wins in the last ten appearances. On the other hand, Leverkusen can be quite confident after having won the last four home matches, counting for the Bundesliga. In this way, it will not be surprising that Leverkusen enters the match with a good pace and manages to win the three points.

They have conceded the first goal in 13 of their 30 matches for this competition, and have only turned the score around in 3.

Leverkusen enters this match after an away draw, 0-0, in the visit to the Union Berlin territory. The home team is known for its excellent counterattacks, and has very competent players in this field. Contrary to the "enemy" of this round, the home team should play in a 5-2-3 tactical system, with the objective of using the side aisles to invest in the offensive process. In this drawing, the three most advanced men should be Moussa Diaby, Adam Hlozek and Florian Wirtz. Coach Xabi Alonso should not be able to count on Patrik Schick, Exequiel Palacios and Andrey Lunev due to injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Lukas Hradecky, Jonathan Tah, Jeremie Frimpong , Piero Hincapié, Edmond Tapsoba, Nadiem Amiri , Robert Andrich, Mitchel Bakker , Florian Wirtz, Moussa Diaby, Amine Adli.
Coach: G. Seoane.

Analysis Köln

In the penultimate match, they won in an away match against TSG Hoffenheim, by (1‑3). In the last match, they lost in a home match against SC Freiburg, by (0‑1). In the last 10 away league matches Köln has a record of 2 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses, so they have won 9 points out of 30 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 30 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 17 times and have only turned the score around in 3.

Cologne comes unmotivated for this round after a home defeat, by 0-1, against Friburg. The visiting team should play in a 4-3-3 tactical system, with the intention of using the side corridors to torment the opposing defense. The striker on duty is the German Davie Selke, a player who stands out due to his physical ability. The Cologne coach should not be able to count on Florian Dietz and Mark Uth because they are, at this stage, handed over to the medical department. It should be noted that defensive midfielder Eric Martel will also be out as he is, at this stage, serving a suspension for accumulating yellow cards.

Confirmed Lineup: Marvin Schwäbe, Jeff Chabot, Timo Hübers , Dejan Ljubicic, Ellyes Skhiri , Benno Schmitz, Jonas Hector, Florian Kainz, Davie Selke , Jan Thielmann, Linton Maina.
Coach: S. Baumgart.
