Bayer Leverkusen will be looking to make another stride toward winning the Bundesliga title for the first time this weekend when they travel to FC Köln. There will also be pressure on the home side, as they are in danger of getting cut adrift in the relegation places.
It is hard to put into words how impressive Bayer Leverkusen have been throughout the 2023-24 season. The German giants remain unbeaten across all competitions this term, and they could yet end the campaign by completing a memorable treble for the first time in their history. However, the main goal remains a Bundesliga title that has eluded them.
Leverkusen comes into this latest round of matches in the top flight having won each of their last four fixtures. That gives them a current eight-point advantage over Bayern Munich after 23 rounds of matches. Leverkusen have the second-best attacking record in the competition this term, while they also sport the best defence. Leverkusen’s most recent win was a professional 2-1 home success against Mainz.
The pressure is building on FC Köln at this stage of the season, as their long-term future in the Bundesliga is far from assured. They come into this round sitting in the relegation playoff spot after winning just once in their last five. That run of form leaves them eight points adrift of automatic safety in the German top tier.
Köln have failed to win in their last three matches in the Bundesliga, but two of their fixtures over that period have ended in draws. Their most recent tie was picked up against Stuttgart last weekend, as they showed excellent character to strike back late in that fixture through Eric Martel.
Leverkusen have picked up wins in two of their last three matches against Köln, which includes a straightforward 3-0 success earlier in the season. However, Köln have also won twice in the last four matches, with both of their wins coming away from home. Köln are without a home success against Leverkusen since December 2019.
It is incredibly hard to bet against Leverkusen based on the form that they have shown in the Bundesliga throughout this season. This should be a relatively straightforward assignment for the visitors, and we expect them to secure a 3-0 win on the road.
