H2H Stats Matches and Previous Teams Results

Bayern Munich Team Overview
Bayern Munich is one of the giants of world football, so they are always expected to achieve outstanding results in the Champions League. Currently, the Munich team is demonstrating a very decent game, although they do not always perform flawlessly. One of the warning signs was the encounter with Celtic (2:1; 1:1) in the previous stage, where the German team did not play at their best. However, on the domestic front, Vincent Kompany's team is ahead of everyone: they are currently leading the Bundesliga, with a whole eight-point gap from their nearest rival.
Bayern should not face problems in the future either. The squad in Munich is extremely impressive, and currently, only midfielder Kimmich is in the infirmary. However, this is a significant loss.

Bayer Leverkusen Team Overview
Bayer has set high expectations for their performance after showing strong results last season. Back then, the team from Leverkusen was simply unstoppable, but now they occasionally allow themselves to stumble. However, even so, the "Pharmacists" are unlikely to be dissatisfied with their results: the team is in second place in the Bundesliga, and in the general stage of the Champions League, they easily jumped into the top 8 and secured a direct ticket to the Round of 16. Xabi Alonso's team remains strong in the attacking phase and often finds ways to break through the defensive lines of their opponents: in 32 games across both tournaments, they have scored 70 goals.
Everything is also in order with Bayer's roster. Currently, only defender Belocian and forward Terrier are listed as injured.

⚽️ Goal Prediction
In the Bundesliga, these teams are ranked first and third for goals conceded, respectively, and their recent head-to-head even ended in a 0-0 draw. This leads our editorial team to think that it's worth betting on Total goals under 3.
🚩 Corner Prediction
Both teams are skilled at creating pressure on their opponents' goals and converting it into a large number of set pieces. On average, Bayern and Bayer earn 6.8 and 6.7 corners per game, respectively. This suggests that a bet on Total corners over 9.5 might be successful.
Editorial Prediction
At the moment, this is the most intriguing matchup in Germany, as only Bayern and Bayer are demonstrating stable and high-quality play, which is why they occupy the leading positions in the Bundesliga. Therefore, the battle for the Champions League quarterfinals promises to be extremely intense, from the first minutes to the final whistle of the return match. In Munich, the hosts must confirm their superiority, but disciplined defensive play will help Bayer maintain their chances of advancing to the quarterfinals. We predict that Bayern will win with a score of 1-0. As a key bet, we suggest Total goals under 3.
