Bayer Leverkusen to consolidate Champions League spot at Bochum

Bayer Leverkusen to consolidate Champions League spot at Bochum
2797

On Sunday afternoon, Bochum hosts Bayer Leverkusen, as the visitors look to further consolidate their position in the Bundesliga’s top four.

Bochum has enjoyed a solid Bundesliga campaign after winning promotion last season. The home team are currently nine points clear of the relegation play-off spot and also the automatic relegation spots.

The home side’s recent form in the German top-flight has been inconsistent, though. However, a 2-1 win at high flying Hoffenheim last time out was certainly a creditable one. Another victory should preserve Bochum’s top-flight status for another season.

The win last time out continued a high-scoring trend for Bochum in the Bundesliga in recent games, as three of their last four Bundesliga matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Bochum’s recent home form has been highly inconsistent in the Bundesliga, although they have lost two of their last three league outings at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion.

Bayer Leverkusen look set for a top-four finish in the Bundesliga. Die Werkself are now six points clear of fifth-place Freiburg in the race for Champions League football for next season.

Back-to-back victories over Wolfsburg and Hertha Berlin have further strengthened Leverkusen’s position in the top four of the German top-flight table.

Gerardo Seoane’s team has been prolific in the Bundesliga of late, scoring at least two goals in ten of their last 11 matches in the German top-flight. Only league leader Bayern Munich has scored more goals than the visitors this season in the Bundesliga.

Bayer Leverkusen have a decent recent away record in the Bundesliga, winning three of their last five league games on their travels while suffering just one defeat in the process.

Forebet predicts that Bayer Leverkusen will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to further consolidate their place in the Bundesliga’s top four.
