Champions Bayern Munich will face Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen at the Allianz Arena on Friday night. Bayern are currently second in the Bundesliga 2023-24 table with nine points, and Leverkusen are top of the table with nine points but are ahead due to goal difference.
Bayern were excellent in their last game before the international break, as they registered a close 2-1 win at Borussia Park against Borussia Monchengladbach. Despite going down in the 30th minute, Tuchel’s men came back with goals from Leroy Sané and Mathys Tel. With the opening Champions League game against Manchester United on the horizon, the German giants will look to go into the UCL in good form.
Leverkusen, on the other hand, are holding off the Bavarian giants for the top spot with a better goal difference as Xabi Alonso’s side have won all three of their matches so far while scoring 11 goals in the process. In their last game, Leverkusen comfortably beat newly promoted Darmstadt 5-1 in front of their home fans. Four different players found the back of the net in that victory, including Victor Boniface, who netted an excellent brace. There were also goals from Exequiel Palacios, Jonas Hofmann, and Adam Hiozek.
Head-to Head:
In the 97 matches played between them, Bayern won 60, Leverkusen won 20, and 17 were drawn.
Thomas Muller is one of the top scorers in this fixture, with nine goals.
