Bayer Leverkusen host RB Leipzig at the BayArena in the pick of Sunday’s action, with both sides carrying plenty of attacking threat. Leverkusen bounced back with a 4-0 rout of Union last time out, while Leipzig have been up and down, so a competitive, open game looks in prospect.

Anthony Eadson’s Leverkusen vs Leipzig predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson narrowly favours the hosts, with value on a Leipzig threat.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Bayer Leverkusen to win1/1 (Betfred)This looks a strong price for a Leverkusen side who bounced back with a 4-0 thrashing of Union and boast Patrik Schick in red hot form. Leipzig have been up and down, beaten 3-1 at Werder in their only away game so far, and their defence can be got at. At evens, backing the hosts at the BayArena makes real appeal. Leverkusen have the firepower to edge a competitive game and should have just enough to take the points at home.
Ridle Baku to score anytime15/2 (Sky Bet)Leipzig defender Baku has been an unlikely goal threat, already scoring twice this season from wing back with his forward surges and shooting from range. Leipzig have scored nine goals in three games, so they carry plenty of attacking intent even away from home. At 15/2, Baku is a big priced angle worth taking in a game that should see goals at both ends. With two already banked, backing him to keep finding the net offers real value.

How Bayer Leverkusen go into the game

Leverkusen have been inconsistent, losing 3-2 at Elversberg before a 4-0 win over Union and a 2-2 draw at Augsburg. Patrik Schick has been in superb form up top.

Full of firepower but occasionally open, Leverkusen will back their attack to fire at home.

How RB Leipzig go into the game

Leipzig have blown hot and cold, beating Gladbach 3-0 and thrashing Hamburg 5-0 either side of a 3-1 loss at Werder. Nine goals scored shows their attacking intent.

Dangerous going forward but beatable at the back, Leipzig arrive with a potent attack but questions in defence.
