Bayer Leverkusen vs FC Koln Betting Tips: Leverkusen to win / Over 2.5 goals 

Leverkusen continued their impressive start to the season by securing a victory over Norwegian team Molde in the midweek Europa League match.

Bayer, the current leaders of the Bundesliga and having maintained an unbeaten record after nine games, enters this match with the assurance of securing another three points against a struggling Koln side.

Xabi Alonso’s team has shown great domestic form at home, securing seven victories and suffering only one loss in their past nine Bundesliga games since March.

The league leaders have been scoring effortlessly, as they have netted three or more goals in each of their five Bundesliga victories this season. It is highly probable that they will continue their impressive streak this upcoming weekend. Interestingly, all nine of their previous home Bundesliga matches have witnessed both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals being scored as well.

Having only earned one point from six games, the visitors enter this challenging away contest and currently sit in second-to-last place in the division.

When playing away, Cologne has been consistently successful in scoring in seven out of their last eight league matches, often resulting in both teams scoring and more than 2.5 goals being scored.

Based on these numbers, I have a strong belief that we will witness a minimum of three goals in the match, as Leverkusen is undoubtedly superior to their opponents who are currently struggling.
