- Competition: Champions League
- Date: Tuesday, 5th November 2024
- Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
- Venue: Anfield (Liverpool)
On Tuesday night at Anfield, we will have a clash in which the two teams who hope for the top eight Champions League position will meet. Liverpool collected a maximum of nine points from the first three rounds, while Bayer Leverkusen collected two points fewer.
Jurgen Klopp left Liverpool this summer, but one of the best English teams never skipped a beat. In the Premier League, they are currently at the top of the table with two points more than Manchester City. Arne Slot's team is in phenomenal form, with ten wins in the previous 11 matches. In the last game, Liverpool won 2-1 at home against Brighton. The home side didn't show their best face in that game, but they still secured another victory.
Bayer Leverkusen are playing solidly this season again, but it is clear that they are far from the level they showed the previous year when they won their first Bundesliga title. Xabi Alonso's team are fourth in the German national league. In the previous game, Bayer Leverkusen played 0-0 at home against Stuttgart. The home side had an xG of 2.19, while guests had only 0.28, but the lack of efficiency cost Bayer this time.
Liverpool vs Bayer Leverkusen pick: Liverpool to win
Liverpool are dominating at the moment. At Anfield, they have five wins in a row. On the other hand, Bayer are without a win in the previous three road games. We should expect Liverpool to win against the Bundesliga champions on Tuesday night.
