Liverpool-Bayer Leverkusen is a match valid for the fourth day of the Champions League and is played on Tuesday at 9 p.m.: live TV, likely lineups, prediction.
After three days Liverpool is one of the two teams still with full points along with Aston Villa, but Bayer Leverkusen’s ranking is also nice, and if the new Champions League league phase ended now they would be qualified directly to the round of 16 without having to go through the play-off (the German champions have 7 points and a goal difference of +5) thanks to their momentary sixth place.
The Reds, privateers at San Siro in the opener (1-3 to AC Milan), beat Bologna and Leipzig in the next two games without conceding a goal: 2-0 to the Felsinei and 0-1 in Germany. Numbers that confirm how Salah and his teammates are shining especially in their own half of the pitch. Even in the Premier League, if today they can afford to look down on everyone, it is mainly thanks to an iron defense (barely 6 goals conceded, no one has done better). Last Saturday Arne Slot’s men took back the top spot by liquidating Brighton (2-1), which had also waved the white flag a few days earlier in the League Cup.
Bayer Leverkusen, on the other hand, was too erratic, far from the peaks touched last year. Xabi Alonso’s team is coming off a deadlocked draw with Stuttgart, its second in a row in the Bundesliga, and has lost further ground to leading Bayern Munich.
In the Champions League, after wins with Feyenoord and AC Milan, the half-hearted misstep came two weeks ago in the match with Brest, which was able to stop the Aspirins at 1-1. Unlike Liverpool, Bayer Leverkusen is disappointing in the non-possession phase, already conceding 15 goals at home.

The Prediction
Liverpool should prevail over Bayer Leverkusen in a match of at least one goal each side but in all likelihood the total goals, in light of the Reds’ excellent defensive numbers, will be less than 4.
