Borussia Dortmund form and stats

Borussia Dortmund have performed here at Signal-Iduna-Park this season with 10 wins from 16 Bundesliga matches. Some points have been lost, as they have drawn 2 games and lost 4. The team is able to perform also as the away side, as they are nurturing a very healthy winning streak of six straight victories regardless of arena.

A good away victory last time out for Borussia, who won 3-1 against Mainz 05 (placed 13th). Nobody expected Borussia Dortmund to beat Mainz 05 in the last match, but sometimes David beats Goliath. Mats Hummels was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.14 out of 10. The defender Hummels won 6 of 8 duels.

Before that match, a DFB Pokal win away at RB Leipzig.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Borussia's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played two games, won one match, drawn zero and lost one.

Goals decide football matches and Borussia Dortmund are scoring many of them at home; 37 on target from 16 league matches. On the other hand, Borussia have conceded 19 goals.

Bayer Leverkusen form and stats

6-5-5 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Bayer Leverkusen, who have the fewest conceded goals (14) away in Bundesliga, in their Bundesliga matches away.

Leverkusen's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Union Berlin that finished 1-1. Attacker Florian Wirtz got a player rating of 7.41 in the game. "Man of the match" Wirtz scored one goal, hit two key passes and had 39 successful passes (of 47 total).

Before that, Leverkusen travelled to Werder Bremen and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.

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 Leverkusen playing away, we found one game. Results were zero away wins, zero draws and one home win.

Leverkusen have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 16 league away games 18 goals have been scored. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (14 so far).
