Bayer Leverkusen take on the visitors Tottenham in the round 3 match of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, October 18th BayArena (Leverkusen).
Bayer Leverkusen started with two draws with CSKA and Monaco, 2-2 and 1-1. The hosts should feel robbed as they prevailed in both matches and could’ve count on all six points. Leverkusen side were up 2-0 in home clash with CSKA and could’ve score at least one more but instead they conceded two. The clash with the representative French football was even more dramatic as Monaco scored their equalizer on the very last seconds of stoppage time. We should note that Bayer show excellent results in Leverkusen, taking 7 wins and three draws in home matches since the beginning of March.

Tottenham gained three points in two starting matches of the group stage, quite unexpectedly losing to Monaco in round 1, 1-2, and beating CSKA on the road, 1-0. The loss to Ligue 1 representative remains the only defeat of the season for Spurs so far. Pochettino’s men are on six-match undefeated run with five wins and one draw recorded. The team is also unbeaten in away matches, taking three wins and two draw in season2016/17.
Current Bayer’s first team lacks consistency and it’s hard for them to battle in both eurocups and Bundesliga. The Spurs, in turn, show nice football through the beginning of the season and appear to be more skilled side at the moment. We should expect English side at least avoid defeat in Leverkusen this time.
Prediction for the match: Tottenham to win with +0.5 Asian handicap.
