Verein für Leibesübungen Wolfsburg has
Head coach Niko Kovac is expected to opt for continuity and name the same Wolfsburg side for a third consecutive game. Maximilian Arnold, Mattias Svanberg, and Yannick Gerhardt will take midfield duties, while Kilian Fischer and Paulo OTavio will operate as the two full-backs. Omar Marmoush and Jonas Wind combined for nine goals as the forwards of the club, and they will have the chance to add to their tally when they lead the line. Ridle Baku and Felix Nmecha have eight goals combined.
The Wolves will be unfortunate to not see Lukas Nmecha and Bartol Franjic on the field.
Why Leverkusen Can Beat Wolfsburg
Across all tourneys, Leverkusen is on a 10-game unbeaten run, winning eight times. That stretch of games includes a 2-1 win over Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, as well as a 1-1 draw against Royale Union SG most recently. They beat Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1 in their last Bundesliga action, thanks to goals from Amine Adli, Moussa Diaby, and Sardar Azmoun.
After five consecutive victories in the Bundesleague, Leverkusen again managed to get closer to the top of the table, that is, the positions that mark placement in European competitions. Such a series of good results is also a great encouragement for the upcoming, very important period for Aspirins. Leverkusen is currently sixth-placed in the German league, notching a 13-4-10 record, garnering 43 points with 51 goals. On their travels, Leverkusen has a 6-2-5 record.
Manager Xabi Alonso has a talented young squad at his disposal, with the likes of Amine Adli, Moussa Diaby, and Jeremie Frimpong in good form which will be key. Diaby has nine goals and six assists in the Bundesliga, while Jeremie Frimpong has 14 goal involvements. Florian Wirtz has six assists while Adam Hlozek has seven goal involvements.
However, Andrey Lunev and Patrik Schick are injured for Bayer Leverkusen this week, while Exequiel Palacios is considered doubtful.
