THE PREDICTION
Wolfsburg have won on their last two visits to the BayArena - in fact, there has not been a home win in this fixture in their last nine meetings. The Wolves have found away wins hard to come by this season, though. Tuesday’s 2-0 victory at Mainz was only their second success on the road, and both have come against the bottom two, although they have only failed to score in one of their away outings. After three defeats and a draw from their previous four games, Bayer Leverkusen claimed a much-needed 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund in midweek. But similarly, they have registered just one clean sheet in their last 12 Bundesliga matches on home turf, so Both Teams To Score is the standout market here.
