Bayer Leverkusen vs Krasnodar PREVIEW & PREDICTION 21/02/2019

Thursday, from 20:00, Bayer Leverkusen will receive a visit to Krasnodar in a match for the UEFA Europa League final match “16th”. The game will take place at the “BayArena” stadium in Leverkusen.

Having scored a single home defeat in the past three and a half months, a 0-1 against Gladbach, Bayer Leverkusen is ready to practice a super-effective and efficient football to qualify fast in the optimum UEFA Europa League. Without too much luck in the tour, in front of an atypical and solid team on their own ground, the “aspirins” delayed the solving of the qualification equation for the return on “BayArena”, a stadium that Bayern Munich itself yielded two weeks ago in the Bundesliga . In other words, we can not judge the evolution of Thursday night’s hostilities on “BayArena” after the outcome of the tour, as a 0-0 on the terrible terrain in Krasnodar does not share too much with a Leverkusen team hungry goals in front of their fans.

Probable teams:

Bayer Leverkusen (4-3-3): Hradecký – Weiser, Dragovic, Bender, Wendell – Havertz, Aranguiz, Kohr – Brandt, Volland, Bailey

Krasnodar (4-3-3): Kritsyuk – Petrov, Martynovich, Spajic, Ramirez-Olsson, Kabore, Gazinsky-Wanderson, Ignatyev, Claesson

Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a spectacular hostile run. Without ignoring the offensive potential of the guests who have the merit of having scored at least one goal in 5 of the six matches played in the group stage, we think we will see a spectacular duel and we will see goals starting from the first half.


PREDICTION: Bayer Leverkusen to win @ 1,42
