Team Analysis

Bayer 04 Leverkusen

Roger Schimdt men finally end the speculation as they try to bounce back from a poor start after the winter break on German Bundesliga. Bayer Leverkusen will come in this rally with an oozing confidence as they manage to steal three goals over Augsburg. The club tries to repeat the result on their match over Eintracht Frankfurt and it really is surprising as they managed to do so.

The German side has struggled on advancing in the round of 16 and it is sure that they will not waste any opportunity just to gain triumph at the end of this campaign. They will surely use their home turf advantage in order to reign as victors over their visitors.

Atletico de Madrid

Diego Simeone’s men will provide chills to Bayer Leverkusens’ considering the fact that the Rojiblancos are well-known for their sharp defense. The only hindrance for Atletico Madrid to win this rally is the injured players that will be out on the field. Jan Oblak, Diego Godin and Juanfran will have to take some rest after getting an injury – without these names comes the weak back defense which Simeone should need to take good care off.

Prediction

Bayer Leverkusen will be the favorite to win this rally considering the record that they hold at home. Yet the chances for a draw result might also take part on this game.
