Current Form
Bayer Leverkusen are stepping forward to what could be their best season in the history of the club. The new German champions just need to get through five more games. They are currently in great position to have an unbeaten treble-winning season. As we already mentioned, Leverkusen have already won the Bundesliga. Later this month, they will play in the DFB Pokal final against Kaiserslautern, who are playing in the 2nd Bundesliga. We believe that they will definitely win the cup as well. In the first game against AS Roma, Xabi Alonso had a perfect tactic and Leverkusen won 2-0 in Rome. Shortly after that, Granit Xhaka scored an opening goal in Frankfurt in the game that ended up 5-1 for Leverkusen. With that win, Xabi Alsonso´s side made history by equalling Benfica´s all-time unbeaten European record in a single season of 48 games. Last year, Leverkusen faced AS Roma in the semifinals of the Europa League as well. They ended up losing 0-1 on aggregate. In the first game against AS Roma, Florian Wirtz scored early in the first half. After that goal, Leverkusen kept attacking and could have easily trebled their advantage in that game. Later in the second half, Robert Andrich scored and confirmed the victory. It was overall another brilliant game for Leverkusen.
AS Roma have won only one of their last five games. They are currently in 6th place in Serie A with the exact same number of points as Atalanta. Daniele De Rossi is in a bad place right now as he needs to play tough games in Serie A to fight for the Champions League spot. Shortly after they lost against Leverkusen in the first leg, AS Roma hosted Juventus in Serie A. Following the semifinal first leg defeat, Daniele De Rossi made five changes to his starting lineup. Romelu Lukaku scored in the 15th minute, but AS Roma could not keep their advantage for a long time. Just 15 minutes later, Bremer scored a great header and tied the game. The result stayed the same as both teams shared the points.
Leverkusen vs Roma Best Bet to Make
Bayer Leverkusen are playing without any pressure. Xabi Alonso is one of the best coaches in the world right now, and he has been making the right decisions all year long. We believe that they will continue their undefeated season, and win at home against AS Roma, who will open up from the very start.
That being said, Bayer Leverkusen winning is a value bet.
