Prediction: 3-0
Darmstadt
High-flying Bayer Leverkusen will look to keep their 100% record in the 2023/2024 Bundesliga campaign intact when they welcome Darmstadt to their BayArena on Saturday afternoon. The BayArena outfit have been scoring goals for fun of late and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Lilywhites. A man to watch in the home team will be summer signing Victor Boniface, who scored a brace in a 3-0 crushing of Borussia M’gladbach, whilst both Amine Adli and Piero Hincapie are banned for the match. Sardar Azmoun and Patrik Schick miss out with injuries.
Darmstadt, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-1 loss to ten-man Union Berlin, meaning that anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise. Christoph Zimmermann faces race against the clock to be fit for Sunday’s encounter, while both Alexander Brunts and Emir Karic are out of contention through injuries.
