As expected, Barcelona have dominated this group. After an opening 1-1 draw in Roma, they have won their next five matches including a 2-1 win over Leverkusen at home. With the group won already they may decide to play a weakened side but with the squad they have you wouldn't really notice if they did. The story here is on the German side of the game. Leverkusen are third in the group level on points with Roma but behind them because of the results between the two sides. The German side have to get a better result than Roma and that won't be easy as they are home to BATE Borisov. Just to make it even more complicated, BATE are bottom but a win for them in Rome would mean Leverkusen have to beat Barcelona to finish in the top two.  The problem Bayer have isn't just that they are facing Barcelons but that their defence isn't that great. They have already conceded 11 goals in this group and if Roma can go to Germany and score four times then you wonder what Barcelona might do. I go for an away win here.
