It's advantage Bayer Leverkusen so far with their 5th position in the Bundesliga table, welcoming Eintracht Frankfurt who are placed 12th.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Bayer Leverkusen form and stats
When playing at home in the Bundesliga, Bayer Leverkusen have managed 6 wins, 4 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 12 games. There’s a good atmosphere here at BayArena after three straight home wins.
The home team returns to BayArena after being equal after 90 minutes with RB Leipzig (placed 2nd) on their last time out; the Bundesliga game ended 1-1. A strong away win before that one, visiting Porto and winning 3-1.
The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Bayer Leverkusen matches with similar probabilities have ended with two wins, one draw and one defeat (from four games).
Bayer Leverkusen have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at BayArena with 21 goals in 12 league matches. 13 goals have been conceded.
Eintracht Frankfurt form and stats
There's been little loot from Eintracht Frankfurt's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 11 away games in the Bundesliga. Eintracht Frankfurt only have 2 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 1 draw.
Eintracht Frankfurt has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Salzburg for a Europa League game that ended a draw (2-2). A loss against Union Berlin was the result prior to that, in a Bundesliga home game.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Eintracht Frankfurt playing away, we found two games. Results were one away win, one draw and zero home wins.
Eintracht Frankfurt have scored 11 goals on their travels this season, from 11 away games in the league. In the opposite end, Eintracht Frankfurt have conceded 21 goals in their away games.
