Bundesliga Preview

The pressure will be on Bayer Leverkusen this weekend, as they look to enhance their chances of finishing in the top six. Leverkusen currently sit in the final Europa League spot, but they have picked up just one victory from their previous four matches in the league. They will be looking to get back on track after suffering defeat in their previous match. 

Leverkusen’s record in the second half of the season has still been excellent, as they have picked up 30 points since the restart. Only Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund have picked up more points over the same period. But, a response will be needed by Xabi Alonso’s side following their defeat last weekend.

Stuttgart has struggled throughout the season, and that is highlighted by the fact that they have picked up just 14 points in 2023. Only Hertha Berlin, who sit bottom of the standings have picked up fewer points this calendar year. Stuttgart has picked up four points from their two home matches under Sabastian Hoeness, which is a return to form after picking up just one win from their previous home matches. 

Stuttgart remain locked in the battle to avoid relegation, as they sit 16th in the standings. However, a victory this weekend would move them out of the relegation playoff spot. Confidence would be taken from their recent run of form, as they have lost just once over their previous five.
