Bayer Leverkusen - Freiburg predictions

It’s easy to point out Bayer Leverkusen as the clear favourites, but we wouldn’t call this match completely one-sided. The hosts are definitely more likely to win between the two, but a tie game is another possibility. An away win would be quite a surprise, but we’ve seen bigger upsets.

The away team’s chances of winning this Sunday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Leverkusen, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

Team from Leverkusen earned a standing ovation for the last round’s victory. The last Bundesliga trip saw did not have them as firm favourites to win, on the contrary. They still did well enough to take the halftime lead and close the game in style (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY).

Freiburg are coming on the back of a draw in their previous home game against Eintracht Frankfurt. With bookies pricing a home win at 2.80, they fell behind in the early game and had to struggle just to scrape together a 2:2 draw before the end.

The last 3 times we saw Bayer Leverkusen play as the away team, they had serious issues stopping the ball from getting into their net, conceding more than 5 times. Hopefully, they’ll have better luck at home.

Scoring more than 5 times over their past 3 home games, Freiburg have been playing with remarkable consistency lately. Although they’re the visitors this time, it’s an impressive record.

In terms of head-to-head stats, the closest point of reference right now is from last season when Leverkusen walked away with a decisive victory. This is an entirely new campaign but most top online bookies are still expecting the match to end in their favour.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
