The reigning German Bundesliga champions have started off this season in a decent manner. They won two and lost one of their three league outings. On Thursday, the team will start their Champions League campaign and will follow the above mentioned form to face Feyenoord from Eredivisie.
Meanwhile, the Feyenoord side follows a five-match unbeaten streak across all competitions at the moment. They were unbeaten in all the four Eredivisie outings so far this season but it is worth noting that they draw three in that period.
Moving on, these two have locked horns just twice in the past and it was during the 1987 Europa League campaign. Leverkusen managed to remain unbeaten in both the clashes against Feyenoord. By the looks of things,we expect an interesting affair at De Kuip on Thursday.
Feyenoord vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction
The current home form of Feyenoord doesn’t look that promising. They follows a two-match winless streak and lost one in that period against Monaco conceding 1-3 ft. On the other side, Leverkusen is on a three-match winning streak on the road and has scored 8 goals in that period while allowing three.
Do also note that Leverkusen’s German midfielder Florian Wirtz have been consistent in scoring and has netted 3 goals in the last three road trips of Leverkusen. He scored 3 goals and one assist in the three Bundesliga outings this season too.
