Europa League betting and spectator preview: Ferencváros and Bayer 04 Leverkusen meet at Groupama Aréna to measure strength and learn who makes it to the next stage.

This could be an appealing match with lots of spark and energy as both sides are well refreshed since they last played a game. Game on!

These teams have little in common geographically as Bayer 04 Leverkusen have to travel 1100 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen form and stats

Leverkusen's mission in Europa League last season failed in the 16th finals against Young Boys.

The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 4 wins, 3 draws and only 0 losses in the Bundesliga. When we have look at the Europa League statistics, we find 4W-1D-0L. This is both home and away. Leverkusen are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played seven in a row without losing.

Piero Hincapie, Patrik Schick (4), Edmond Tapsoba and Amine Adli scored in Leverkusen's previous match, the home game against Greuther Furth that ended 7-1. As you can tell from the results above, Leverkusen was very dominant against Greuther Furth, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 7-1 (!) with Piero Hincapie, Patrik Schick (4), Edmond Tapsoba and Amine Adli providing the goals. Patrik Schick certainly enjoyed Leverkusen's last game versus Greuther Furth, appearing multiple times in the match report with four goals and the 7-1 victory. The attacker Patrik Schick got a match rating of 9.95 in that game. Schick scored four goals, served one assist and hit two key passes.

Preceding that game was the away Bundesliga victory against RB Leipzig with the score of 3-1.

Leverkusen have another game that requires travelling in just three nights, a Bundesliga match vs Eintracht Frankfurt. A demanding itinerary for the visiting team!

Bayer 04 Leverkusen create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 18 goals in 7 travels. Leverkusen have conceded 7 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

The UEFA Europa League, abbreviated as UEL and commonly referred to as just the Europa League, is an annual football club competition organised by UEFA. It is the second-tier competition for football clubs in Europa, beneath the UEFA Champions League in value and importance. Teams qualify through their performance in their national leagues and cup competitions. Some teams qualify from the Champions League; more precisely the teams who are knocked out in the playoff qualifying round and the third-place finishers of the group stage. The winner of the Europa League qualifies for the Champions League in their next competitive season.
