Prediction: 2-1
Club Brugge
Bayer Leverkusen will look to book their place in the Europa League when they take on Club Brugge in the last group game. Bayer Leverkusen did well to hold Atletico Madrid to a 2-2 draw at Estadio Wanda Metropolitano, and they are surely capable of matching Club Brugge on home soil at the Jupiler League champions have already secured a top-two finish. Piero Hincapie is banned for the match, while fit-again striker Patrick Schick is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
The group leaders, on the other hand, suffered a heavy 4-0 loss to Porto in their last group game. Since the hosts want this win more than the visitors, we predict that Carl Hoefkens’ men are going to return home empty-handed. To make things even worse for the visiting side, all Sylla, Onyedika, and Odoi are banned for the match.
