Liverpool vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction & Picks - Champions League
by Carlos Zabala | in Champions League Picks
After regaining first place in the Premier League, Slot's Liverpool, with a better start than expected, host the reigning German champions, Bayer Leverkusen, on Matchday 4 of 8 of the Champions League.
After a poor first half against Brighton, where they only had one shot on goal, they went into the break losing 0-1, but the team showed resilience to turn the score around with goals from Salah and Gapko and win 2-1.
They will face Bayer Leverkusen after having beaten RB Leipzig, another German club, 1-0 in the previous Champions League matchday. At Anfield, Liverpool is even stronger as they have a streak of 5 consecutive victories and if they beat Bayer Leverkusen they will achieve for the second time in their history to win the first 4 Champions League matches in a season.
Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen, led by Xabi Alonso, have struggled to turn draws into wins this season, unlike last season, and have actually drawn 4 of their last 6 games. In the Bundesliga, 4 days before the clash against Liverpool, they drew 0-0 against Stuttgart. They dominated in that league game with an xG of 2.19, 19 shots and 5 on target, but the forwards were very inaccurate in front of goal.
