Wolfsburg, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 3-1 away defeat by Stuttgart will have left the Wolfsburg squad feeling a little deflated. During that encounter they had 40% possession and had 12 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 8 of their 14 shots on goal.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 8 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 9 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have had an excellent run of form at The Volkswagen Arena recently, winning 5 out of their last 6 home games.
When home matches come round at The Volkswagen Arena, Jonas Wind will feel confident of adding more goals to his tally of 7 goals in Wolfsburg's last 6 home league matches.
Bayer Leverkusen, Recent FormIn their last match Bayer Leverkusen enforced their superiority over Cologne with a 3-0 home win. Their share of possession in that meeting was 64%, while racking up 24 shots along the way, 10 of which were on target. Cologne had 7 shots on goal with 3 on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 20 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Xabi Alonso will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 4 goals in the same period. In their last 6 away games, they have scored in 4 and kept a clean sheet in 3.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 7 games.
On an individual basis, Victor Boniface is showing great form in front of goal having scored 7 goals in Bayer Leverkusen's last 6 league games
The previous meeting between these two sides was not one to live long in the memory; that match finished without a goal, and both teams settling for a point apiece.
It's been a long time since Wolfsburg at home has managed to find the back of the Die Werkself net, having failed to score against them in their last 5 encounters at The Volkswagen Arena.
