Bayer Leverkusen-Borussia Monchengladbach is a match of the thirty-third day of Bundesliga and is played on Sunday at 7:30 p.m.: tv, lineups, predictions.
The most difficult moment for Leverkusen coach Xabi Alonso, who must mentally recover a team that was eliminated by Roma in the Europa League during the week. The Germans failed to pierce the defense prepared by Mourinho, and went out. One goal remains, to complete a comeback that began the moment the coach sat on the bench and win access to the European Cups again next year.
We need to fight to do it: at the moment Bayer Leverkusen is in sixth place in the standings, the last one useful to gasp in the Conference. To catch Freiburg’s chances are not there, but to be caught is a close call: in fact, Wolfsburg is tied on points and Frankfurt is only three points away. So one has to sweat. And the opportunity, against a ‘Gladbach side that now has nothing to ask of its own league after pushing away the specter of relegation, is a good one. Yes, the guests are now safe and have nothing to ask of their own season, so much so that they have been starting to think about the next one for a while now.
Of course, however, the dross left by Thursday’s cup match could also make a difference. But if Leverkusen manages to regain above all mental energy then the result should not be in question at all.
The prediction
A match that sees Bayer Leverkusen favored, despite as mentioned the European exertions, which unlike Borussia still has to ask for this final German league season. A match that unlike what happened in the Cup could give at least three goals in total, which is usual in the German league. And victory for Xabi Alonso’s men, too.
