Bayer Leverkusen vs Schalke – When Bayer Leverkusen hosts Schalke for the Bundesliga match on Saturday, Xabi Alonso will begin a new era for the team.
The gifted group of players who are currently hiding at the bottom of the Bundesliga standings are in need of instant motivation, and the former Real Madrid and Bayern Munich midfielder has that duty.
Leverkusen is ranked 17th out of 18 teams, and so far they have only produced one victory. Their lone win came against Mainz, a failing team, and barring two more draws, they are winless overall.
Also take note of the fact that they conceded the third-most goals of any side competing. They also have a 100% losing record overall and a 100% losing record at home, excluding draws.
Similar to the hosts, Schalke is coming off some subpar outings and conceding a tonne of goals. They are now ranked last in the league table, which goes without saying. Schalke, meanwhile, is ranked 15th out of 18 teams and has so far only produced one victory.
The fact that they have only won once, against dead last Bochum, and conceded the second-most goals thus far raises alarm. Additionally, they have a 100% losing record on the road so far, and if two draws occur, it will be a 100% losing record.
Further, goals have been plentiful whenever these two teams have faced off in the past. In light of all of these findings, anticipate a high-scoring contest this Saturday at the BayArena.
