Bayer Leverkusen want to defend their DFB Pokal title for the second season in a row, but will have to overcome the semi-final hurdle against Arminia Bielefeld on Tuesday.
Bayer have returned to winning ways after three defeats in the first weeks of March, beating Bochum and Stuttgart in their last Bundesliga games.
Arminia Bielefeld, on the other hand, are unbeaten in their last four games in all competitions, which is admirable considering the level of competition they are competing at.
Arminia Bielefeld - Bayer Leverkusen Betting Tips: Over 2.5 Goals Total
In the semi-finals of the DFB Cup, Bayer Leverkusen, the defending Bundesliga champions, face Arminia Bielefeld, who play in the third tier of German football. There is no other scenario than Bayer winning this game on Tuesday with aplomb, the difference in quality between the two teams in terms of players status is too great. A Bayer win seems an easy conclusion in this semi-final, but we also expect it to be a game with an above- average number of goals, with a possible Over 2.5 Goals Total.
