Recent form

Bayer Leverkusen

Bayer Leverkusen's recent form has been characterised by a lack of wins and a tendency to draw matches, with four of their last six games ending in stalemates. The team have struggled to find consistency, managing only one victory in this period, which came in the DFB Pokal against lower-league opposition. Their defensive record has been mixed, keeping two clean sheets but also conceding four goals in a heavy defeat to Liverpool in the Champions League, their most high-scoring encounter. Leverkusen have failed to score in two of their last three Bundesliga matches, indicating a dip in attacking form. Despite their current position in the league table, the team's recent performances suggest they are finding it difficult to convert draws into wins, with their goal difference of -1 over the last six games reflecting their struggles to outscore opponents.

Red Bull Salzburg

Red Bull Salzburg's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six matches yielding two wins, two draws, and two losses. The Austrian side have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, scoring just six goals in their last six matches, averaging one goal per game. Defensively, they've been relatively solid, conceding five goals and keeping three clean sheets during this period. Notably, their matches have tended to be low-scoring affairs, with 67% of their last six games featuring under 2.5 goals. Their most impressive result came in their recent Champions League victory away at Feyenoord, where they secured a convincing 3-1 win. However, their domestic form has been less impressive, with their most recent match ending in a 2-0 defeat to FC BW Linz in the Bundesliga.

Recent home/away form

Bayer Leverkusen

Bayer Leverkusen have been in impressive form at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches with four wins and two draws. They've been particularly potent in attack, scoring 12 goals at an average of 2 per game, whilst maintaining a solid defence with three clean sheets. The standout match was a thrilling 4-3 victory over VfL Wolfsburg, showcasing their attacking prowess. Leverkusen have shown consistency in their goal-scoring, with 67% of their home games featuring over 2.5 goals. Their defensive record is also noteworthy, conceding just one goal per game on average. The team's ability to secure points at home is evident, with a positive goal difference of 6 and no losses in this stretch, indicating they are a formidable force on their own turf.

Red Bull Salzburg

Red Bull Salzburg's recent away form has been inconsistent, with the team struggling to find consistent goal-scoring form on the road. They have managed only two wins in their last six away matches, with two draws and two losses completing their record. Notably, Salzburg have been involved in some high-scoring affairs, including a thumping 5-0 defeat to Sturm Graz and an impressive 3-1 victory over Feyenoord in the Champions League. Their defence has been surprisingly solid at times, keeping three clean sheets in these six matches, but the 5-0 loss significantly inflated their goals conceded average. The team's goal-scoring prowess has been hit-and-miss, with seven goals scored across the six games, but four of those came in a single cup match against lower-league opposition. Interestingly, both teams scored in only 17% of these matches, highlighting Salzburg's tendency to either dominate or struggle to find the net away from home.
