RB Leipzig Bayer Leverkusen betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this fixture is that both teams will score at least one goal. While the game is expected to lean slightly in favour of the home side, Leverkusen possess the quality to trouble the visiting defence. It is also worth noting that the “Both Teams to Score – Yes” market has been successful in two of Leipzig’s last three matches and in the last four meetings between the two sides.

Preview
Leipzig and Leverkusen face at Red Bull Arena, in a match for the 15th round of the Bundesliga. At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the home team, since they have a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 4 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 25‑01‑2025, in a match for the Bundesliga, they tied (2‑2). The goals of the match were scored by David Raum (41' ) and Edmond Tapsoba (85' Autogolo), for Leipzig, and by Aleix García (36' ) and Patrik Schick (18' ), for Leverkusen. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since Leverkusen presents significant differences between home and away performances.

After 9 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, the home team is in the 2nd position, havinf won 29 points so far. In the last match, they have lost in an away match against FC Union Berlin by (3‑1), after in the previous match they have won (6‑0) at home, against Eintracht Frankfurt. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses in away matches; against 10 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses at their stadium.

They have won the last 6 home matches for this competition. Their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 9 of the last 10 matches for this competition.

Leipzig head into this match demoralised following a 3-1 away defeat at Union Berlin. It is expected that manager Ole Werner will revert to a 4-3-3 formation, with Nicolas Seiwald, Xaver Schlager and Christoph Baumgartner operating in central midfield. Up front, Yan Diomande, Conrad Harder and Johan Bakayoko are tasked with the team’s attacking duties. Werner will be without Rômulo, Antonio Nusa, Viggo Gebel, Assan Ouédraogo, Ezechiel Banzuzi, Benjamin Henrichs, Ridle Baku and El Chadaille Bitshiabu, all still sidelined with injuries.

The away team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 26 points won, after 8 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against FC Augsburg, by (2‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against FC Köln, by (2‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with 27 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 7 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 30 goals scored and 20 conceded. In the last 6 away league matches Leverkusen has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 18 possible. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for goals, since 23 of the last 27 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. This is a team that likes to score first.

Leverkusen head into this match in confident mood following a 2-0 home victory over Köln, with Martin Terrier and Robert Andrich on the scoresheet. Like their opponents, Leverkusen are expected to line up in a 5-2-3 formation, aiming to exploit the flanks in attack. Up front, Jonas Hofmann, Malik Tillman and Christian Kofane are set to lead the line. Given they are facing a higher-quality opponent away from home, Leverkusen are likely to adopt a slightly more cautious approach. Manager Leverkusen will be without Patrik Schick, Exequiel Palacios, Lucas Vázquez and Alejandro Grimaldo, all recovering from injury, while central defender Jarell Quansah will miss out due to suspension.

Confirmed Lineup: Mark Flekken, Jeanuël Belocian , Axel Tape, Arthur, Aleix García, Malik Tillman , Jonas Hofmann , Robert Andrich, Alejo Sarco, Nathan Tella, Eliesse Ben Seghir.
