Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Bayer Leverkusen and Wolfsburg square off against each other at BayArena in the closing match of the Bundesliga round 25. The BayArena moved one step closer to winning their first Bundesliga trophy thanks to a 2-0 win over Koln, but boss Xabi Alonso must warn his men against complacency. Even though Jeremie Frimpong misses Sunday’s game through suspension, home win should be considered as Bayer Leverkusen look unstoppable at the moment.
The Wolves, on the other hand, failed to win the previous nine league matches and given their under-par display in a 3-2 loss to Stuttgart, we are tempted to place our bets on the league leaders. Joakim Maehle serves a one-game ban due to the accumulation of yellow cards, while both Mattias Svanberg and Rogerio are sidelined with injuries. In the first half of the season Bayer Leverkusen defeated Wolfsburg 2-1, which goes in favour of our previous prediction.
