Bayer Leverkusen vs Eintracht Frankfurt Betting Tips: Leverkusen / Over 1.5 goals
Leverkusen enters Sunday’s significant match in excellent form and with a four-point lead at the top of the league, although they have played one more game than the champions, Bayern.
Before drawing 1:1 consecutively with Stuttgart and Dortmund, Bayer had an impressive eight-game winning streak in the Bundesliga.
Xabi Alonso’s team enters this match on a high, following a convincing 5-1 midweek win against Molde in the Europa League. Their dominant victory on Thursday maintained Leverkusen’s unbeaten record in 23 games this season across all competitions.
After a surprising 2:0 defeat by Aberdeen in the Conference League on Thursday, Eintracht has arrived in Leverkusen. This loss was unexpected, especially considering Dino Toppmöller’s team had a fantastic 5:1 victory over Bayern Munich just last weekend before their disappointing loss in Scotland.
The visitors have primarily had difficulty reaching their peak performance this season, especially during away games. Eintracht has suffered losses in five of their previous six games, and half of their last ten away matches.
On the other hand, Leverkusen have demonstrated exceptional performance at home and also have an impressive history in this matchup. Alonso’s team has triumphed in ten of their past 11 home games and has consistently defeated Eintracht in their last nine encounters at the BayArena.
All things considered, a commanding home win has to be the call on Sunday so I´m backing Leverkusen to win with at least two goals scored.
