Borussia Dortmund vs Bayer 04 Leverkusen Prediction 10 January 2025
Added on 08 January, 2025
Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen are set to face off in the central matchup of the Bundesliga's 16th round.
With 25 points and a goal difference of 28:22, Borussia Dortmund sits in sixth place, which is below expectations for the club's caliber. However, they enter the winter break on a high note, securing impressive results: a 4:0 win over Freiburg, a 3:1 victory against Wolfsburg, and draws against Bayern Munich, Borussia Mönchengladbach, and Hoffenheim (all 1:1).
In a similar run of form, Bayer Leverkusen claimed victories over Heidenheim (5:2), Union Berlin (2:1), St. Pauli (2:1), Augsburg (2:0), and Freiburg (5:1). With 32 points and a goal difference of 37:21, they sit in second place, just four points behind the league leader.
Borussia Dortmund has been especially strong at home, where they remain unbeaten in the league. Given their formidable form, I predict Bayer will struggle to cope with the pressure from Dortmund's attacking prowess.
