-----------------------------------

Bayer Leverkusen: In poor shape (Recent Form: LWDLLD)

Bayer are on 4th place in group D in UEFA Champions League with 0 points. The team is in poor shape – 1 win, 1 draw, 3 losses in last 5 matches across all competitions. Bayer host Atletico on Wednesday. “We know that there is only a slim chance of us going through. But as long as it is theoretically possible, we want to be sharp in the Champions League. Our aim is to be in a European competition after Christmas and for that, we need to win. Atlético can deploy a very physical style of play, but so can we. During the match in Madrid, we showed that we can keep up physically,” said coach Peter Bosz. L. Bender and Sinkgraven are ruled out.

Probable line-ups: Hrádecký; Weiser, Tah, S Bender, Wendell; Baumgartlinger, Demirbay; Bellarabi, Havertz, Volland; Alario

Atletico Madrid: Undefeated since almost two months (Recent Form: DDWWDD)

Atletico sit on 2nd position in group D with 7 points. Their recent form is fine – 2 wins, 3 draws, 0 defeats in last 5 games in all competitions. Now it’s time for an away encounter. “The opponent plays very well. The data confirm it. They have a very high pace of play and good association between players. We will take the game to where we can hurt them,” said coach Diego Simeone. Vrsaljko, Savic, Gimenez, Felix are unavailable.

Probable line-ups: Oblak; Arias, Felipe, Hermoso, Lodi; Correa, Koke, Thomas, Saúl; Costa, Morata

THE BETTING VERDICT:

To sum up, it seems that visitors are favourites of this clash. Bayer are struggling this term, whereas Atletico appear to be doing more or less fine, especially in the UCL, so perhaps ‘Los Rojiblancos’ may get the result in this outing.
