Game Preview
Bayer Leverkusen will play host to Wolfsburg at the BayArena on Saturday in a match between two drastically underperforming teams in the Bundesliga, which should make for a very interesting game. Leverkusen recently hired Xabi Alonso as coach, but so far have failed to revitalize their season.
Leverkusen’s unfortunate start to the season continues to get worse, even after the change in management, which has given the former Real Madrid and Liverpool player his first big coaching role. The team still occupies the relegation spot in the Bundesliga after 10 games, hardly a credible fate for a team playing in the Champions League this season.
An embarrassing early season defeat to third division Elversberg in the Leverkusen, unlike most teams in the top two divisions, have had the week off, but will have welcomed the rest and the opportunity to prepare for this fixture, as their European commitments have prevented them from having a midweek break since August.
Wolfsburg, after an equally poor start, have managed to turn their fortunes around a bit in recent weeks, unlike their upcoming opponents, as they are now four games unbeaten in all competitions.
Wolfsburg failed to win any of their first five league games and remained in the automatic relegation places for the first few months of the season. The team remains 13th in the standings, but an extremely congested Bundesliga table means that can very easily change if Niko Kovac’s side keeps picking up points.
Kovac’s aim is to improve the away profligacy, as no Bundesliga side has scored fewer goals than Wolfsburg in their five away games. Wolfsburg may be a bit more tired in the legs, having beaten Eintracht Braunschweig 2-1 in the cup on Tuesday with virtually their full complement of players.
