Wolfsburg vs Leverkusen Betting Tips: Leverkusen to win / Score 2 or more
After a two-week break, German football makes a comeback on Saturday with an exciting match, where Leverkusen aims to uphold their unexpected position as early-season leaders.
Xabi Alonso’s team remains undefeated, showcasing an outstanding record of six victories in seven matches. Since the beginning of the season, his team has been in sensational form. It is worth noting that Bayer has already scored an impressive total of 37 goals in only ten matches, spanning across all competitions. In the Bundesliga, they have managed to score three or more goals in six out of their seven matches.
Bayer Leverkusen has achieved impressive results on the road, triumphing over Monchengladbach and Mainz, as well as securing a draw against reigning champions Bayern Munich. With such strong performances, Bayer’s chances of contending for the title appear quite feasible.
However, Wolfsburg, the hosts, are not to be underestimated as they have triumphed in all three of their home league matches this season. Despite their impressive performance at home, Niko Kovac’s team currently holds the seventh position in the division, having suffered defeats in three out of their last four away Bundesliga matches.
Although this fixture may appear to be a favorable choice for BTTS or over 2.5 goals, the recent head-to-head record indicates otherwise. Out of the last six matches played between these teams, only one witnessed BTTS or over 2.5 goals being scored.
In the past, this competition has consistently shown a preference for the visiting team. Interestingly, the home team has not managed to win any of the previous 14 matches between these teams.
Given that fact and Leverkusen´s superb early season form, I´m backing Bayer to maintain their winning form while they can also be backed to score at least two goals. They have achieved both of those feats in five of their last seven away matches against Wolfsburg.

Xabi Alonso, on the other hand, does not have any new injury worries. However, he is still unable to rely on Ayman Aourir, Arthur, and Patrick Schick, who have been unavailable for a considerable period.
Since his arrival from Belgium, Nigerian forward Victor Boniface has consistently showcased exceptional form and will once more spearhead the formidable Leverkusen attack.
