Head-to-head statistics Leverkusen - Wolfsburg

Bayer Leverkusen Team Overview
🔴 In the 27th round, Kasper Hjulmand's team led twice but ultimately couldn't hold onto their advantage against the underdogs Heidenheim (3-3), complicating their fight for a top-four finish. Despite securing just one win in their last six Bundesliga matches, the "Pharmacists" are only four points shy of the Champions League spots with seven rounds remaining in the season.
⚫ At home, Bayer display confidence, although a run of four consecutive victories at the "BayArena" has turned into a streak of four draws. The team plays an attacking style, maintains significant possession, and regularly creates chances, but inconsistent results hinder their ability to solidify a spot in the Champions League zone.

Wolfsburg Team Overview
🟢 Wolfsburg find themselves in a considerably tougher spot. In their first home game under Dieter Hecking, the Lower Saxony club narrowly lost to Werder Bremen (0-1). The Wolves are still at risk of relegation from the Bundesliga, with their winless streak extending to ten matches. Their last victory came on January 14, when they defeated St. Pauli (2-1) at home. Additionally, the team has conceded in 19 consecutive matches.
⚪ Defensively, they remain one of the weakest in the league, having conceded 57 goals. Only Heidenheim have a worse record with 61. Even though the team occasionally finds the back of the net, it doesn't address their systemic issues-Wolfsburg consistently drop points.

Latest news
Bayer Leverkusen
🎙️ Kasper Hjulmand after the draw with Heidenheim: "We let this victory slip away ourselves. When you're leading, you need to play more securely and see the game through to the end. We create chances and score, but we lack stability and focus at crucial moments."
❌ Lucas Vazquez and Aleix Garcia will not be able to participate in the match. Arthur, Eliesse Ben Seghir, Jarell Quansah, and Martin Terrier remain doubtful.
Wolfsburg
🎙️ Dieter Hecking after the defeat to Werder: "We didn't do enough offensively to expect a positive result. In such situations, we need to play simpler and more reliably. Right now, we're lacking confidence and composure."
❌ The team's underwhelming results can largely be attributed to the significant number of injuries that have plagued them throughout the season. Rogério, Kevin Paredes, Clayton, Bence Dárdai, Kilian Fischer, Moritz Jenz, and Jenson Seelt remain sidelined. Lovro Majer will miss the match due to an accumulation of yellow cards.
🟨 Yellow Card Prediction
Martin Petersen will be the referee at the BayArena. In his recent matches, he averages around 4 yellow cards per game. Wolfsburg's matches rarely become overly aggressive, with the total number of cautions usually not exceeding five. However, in head-to-head clashes between these teams, the total over 3.5 yellow cards has occurred in 7 of the last 9 meetings. Considering these factors, this option seems worth exploring.
⚽ Goal Prediction
Wolfsburg's matches this season have often been high-scoring affairs; they concede regularly, but also create their own chances. There's a trend: in the last seven matches involving the Wolves, their opponents have consistently scored against them in the second half. Given the visitors' weak defense and Bayer's attacking style, it's reasonable to consider the hosts scoring in the second half.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Statistics indicate that Wolfsburg's matches consistently feature a high number of corners - at least eight in seven consecutive games. Bayer, as a team that takes the initiative, will actively attack and utilize the wings. Under these conditions, considering a total over 8.5 corners seems insightful.
Editorial Prediction
From a tournament perspective, both teams have plenty of motivation: Bayer are fighting for European competition spots, while Wolfsburg are battling to avoid relegation. However, the difference in class, current form, and level of organization is evident. Despite some inconsistency, Bayer should secure all three points, especially on their home turf.
As the main bet, our editorial team suggests considering Bayer's individual total under 2.5 goals. This outcome has occurred in 7 of the last 8 head-to-head encounters, as well as in 6 of Leverkusen's previous 7 home matches at the BayArena. The Scores24 team predicts a home win, with a likely scoreline of 2-0.
