Bayer Leverkusen vs Nurnberg
Bayer Leverkusen has managed to stop the crisis period, and the task continues to maintain that momentum. Nurnberg will be welcomed this weekend at BayArena in the 30 Bundesliga match day held on Saturday (4/20).
Bayer Leverkusen played at VfB Stuttgart last weekend and managed to swing through Kai Havertz’s penalty on 64 minutes. They were indeed superior to ball possession (69%), but shot on targets tended to be balanced (5-4) so they could be said to be very lucky .
The victory will be guarded by Die Werkself to the full after having suffered a losing streak in the previous 3 matches. In addition, yesterday’s victory also revived the opportunity to enter the top 6 zone, the final limit to Europe next season, with a difference of 2 points from there.
Nurnberg also received an away assignment last week, but had to settle for a 1-1 position at VfB Stuttgart headquarters. This match also tends to be balanced both in ball possession (57-43), and shot on targets (4-6).
It is unfortunate for Nurnberg because the draw reduced their chances of qualifying from the red zone, now in 17th place with a difference of 9 points. So, the most realistic target is to take part in the play-off with a distance of 3 points from VfB Stuttgart on it.
There were no winners in the first clash in early December after a 1-1 score stayed at Nurnberg. It was the first draw after Bayer Leverkusen won their previous 5 matches in a row.
Our Prediction: 1
Odds: 1.30
