THE TEAM NEWS

WOLFSBURG

Goalkeeper Koel Casteels is unavailable for Wolfsburg and neither is winger Vaclav Cerny. A knee injury rules out forward Lukas Nmecha and Wolfsburg will also be without Kilian Fischer and Rogerio. Expect Austrian Pavao Pervan to play in goal.

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Pervan; Baku, Lacroix, Zesiger, Maehle; Svanberg, Arnold; Majer, Gerhardt, Tomas; Wind

UNAVAILABLE: Casteels (Injured), Cerny (Illness), Fischer (Injured), Nmecha (Injured), Rogerio (Injured)

BAYER LEVERKUSEN

Don’t expect any change in regards to Xabi Alonso’s starting line-up post international break. With no injuries to key players as it stands, you should see the same Bayer Leverkusen side who have taken the Bundesliga by storm this season so far. Only Arthur is a confirmed absentee, with defender Timothy Fosu-Mensah doubtful.

PREDICTED XI (3-4-3): Hradecky; Kossounou, Tah, Tapsoba; Frimpong, Palacios, Xhaka, Grimaldo; Hofmann, Boniface, Wirtz

UNAVAILABLE: Arthur (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Fosu-Mensah (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Wolfsburg pose another stern test for Bayer Leverkusen, who continue to pass the challengers they have been set across the season. The hosts have won all three matches played on their own patch in 2023-24, but Bayer Leverkusen offer by far the sternest challenge of the teams they have faced so far at home. The visitors boast goals all over the pitch, not only from open play but also from set pieces as well. Whilst the draw no bet market is worth utilising for extra security, back a Leverkusen win.

TIP: BAYER LEVERKUSEN DRAW NO BET
