Bayer Leverkusen vs Holstein Kiel Prediction & Betting Tips (5 October)

Bayer Leverkusen have been cooking with gas on their own patch of late, winning eight and drawing one of their previous nine top-flight fixtures, not to mention outscoring their opponents by 15 goals to two along the way. Holstein Kiel, on the other hand, have found the going tough on the road of late, losing four of their last five trips, including one at this venue.

These two teams are battling for a reason, conceding 58 goals between them in a combined 23 top-flight fixtures up to this point. Six of the previous seven Bayer Leverkusen home games have contained three goals or more, as have ten of the last 15 Holstein Kiel away matches, so any deviation from this script would come as a surprise when the sides meet.

Bayer Leverkusen had featured in 15 top-flight fixtures out of 20 on their own patch in which they had both scored and conceded during the same 91 minutes. This has also been a speciality of Holstein Kiel’s of late, as, before last match, 15 of their last 15 matches in the Bundesliga had served up goals at both ends of the pitch.
