Match : Bayer Leverkusen vs Schalke 04

Competition : Germany – 1.Bundesliga

Time / Date : 16:30h / 25 February 2018

Venue : BayArena

Bayer 04

After two bad results Bayer lose second place and now they are 4th in the standing two points behind second Dortmund.

They make a draw away from home againt Freiburg and after that lose at home from Hertha Berlin ,but in last round they manage to take finally 3 points from Hamburger and now they will try to make it two in row.

In home their main problem is that they can`t hold their advantage and make too many draws ,in last 4 games they have 2 loses and other 2 is wins against weak teams like Mainz and Werder Bremen.

Schalke

They are just 1 point behind their opponent and for sure will give everything for the win.

After two disappointing loses against Beyern Munich that is was expected and against Werder Bremen at home they manage to pick a win in last round with 2:1 with Hoffenheim at home.

Their away form is not good at all with only 1 win from 6 games.

Prediction

Both team to score seems to be a good choice for this game both teams are with 55% BTTS (Home/Away) and for winner I can’t choose that is why draw seems good because both teams are not very impressive lately.
