Bayer Leverkusen hosts Wolfsburg in round 18 of the German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, January 23rd at BayArena (Leverkusen)
Bayer had not gained victories in the championship for a long time, but then there was a strong decline (one point scored in four games). The Red-Blacks again managed to win in the last round, having beaten Borussia Dortmund with a 2:1 score. Leverkusen is third in the Bundesliga, and the closest pursuers are three points behind. Leipzig is ahead at the same point distance. Currently, Bayer is in a difficult staffing situation - due to injuries, as many as seven players will miss the upcoming match. However, it should finally show whether Bayer has stepped back from a series of failures.

Wolfsburg has real chances to compete for a place in the first quartet this season. Now the club is fifth in the standings, lagging behind the fourth Borussia Dortmund only due to additional indicators. And there is a 3-point gap to the upcoming opponent. In the last round, the Wolves coped with one of the outsiders (Mainz) without any problems - 2: 0. With this victory, Wolfsburg ended its winless streak of three matches. The club does not have such significant personnel losses as the opponent, and only two players will not be able to appear on the pitch. The Wolves continue their performances in the German Cup, where they reached the 1/8 finals. So far, the team is making up for being eliminated from the Europa League qualification this season.
Bayer is given a slightly better chance of success, but we will see the meeting of two experienced clubs competing for a place in the first quartet. The number of sensations in the current Bundesliga is off the charts, so you cannot confidently bet on someone’s victory. Betting on the exchange of goals scored looks more promising.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
