Bayer Leverkusen is eighth in the league and has won five of their last six games. The Bundesliga club’s manager, Xabi Alonso, deserves credit for the work he has done so far, but he will hope that players like Moussa Diaby and Jeremie Frimpong don’t gravitate toward Arsenal and Manchester United, which have been linked with them.
There is also hope that Florian Wirtz, a young talent who is regarded as one of the best talents in German football at the moment, will be able to quickly recover from his injuries. Last year, Wirtz suffered a serious injury that also prevented him from participating in the World Cup. In the future, it is anticipated that the 19-year-old will play a significant role in the setup of the national team.
On the other hand, Borussia Dortmund is fifth in the league, five points behind league champion Bayern Munich. Sebastien Haller’s return to the setup will buoy them. Edin Terzic will prioritize strengthening the defense; This season, Borussia Dortmund’s defense has frequently appeared extremely fragile.
We anticipate a draw in this highly competitive matchup.
