Bayer Leverkusen vs Union Berlin Prediction & Betting tips
Bayer Leverkusen takes on Saturday afternoon in its own BayArena against PhD student Union Berlin. The Berliners will see opportunities.
Bayer Leverkusen:
Bayer Leverkusen had a frustrating evening on Wednesday, on the first day of the Champions League group stage. With Atletico Madrid and Juventus also in the group, the home game against Lokomotiv Moscow had to deliver the full booty. Bayer was left empty-handed after ninety minutes. Due to two defensive errors, Die Werkself fell behind. In the second half there were chances to reverse the game, but this did not work (1-2).
Hibernation in the Champions League will be a difficult job, as you can already conclude. Wednesday’s weak performance is not an isolated issue. Last Saturday, Bayer visited Borussia Dortmund for a 4-0 defeat. Even then, Peter Bosz and his players had the problem that the opponent was much more effective for the goal than Leverkusen himself.
FC Union Berlin:
1. FC Union Berlin is not disappointing in the first weeks of the new season. In recent years we have seen that the better teams of the 2. Bundesliga are not inferior to the teams from the right-hand row of the highest level. This season seems to be the case again. The highlight of Die Eisernen so far was unmistakably the surprising 3-1 victory that was booked against Borussia Dortmund. Last week things went wrong at home. In the home game against Werder Bremen, 1-2 was lost.
Union had earned a point in that match. Not because they played so well themselves, but also the visitors from Bremen made little impression. After four matches, the PhD student is on four points. Neven Subotic received his second yellow card in the final phase of last week’s game, so the defender will have to watch a game. Two players are in the rag basket.
