    Bayer looking to maintain top spot after trip to the Wolves

    On Saturday afternoon, Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen clash at the Volkswagen Arena in what could be a highly entertaining Bundesliga encounter.

    Wolfsburg

    The Wolves have enjoyed a somewhat inconsistent campaign so far in the Bundesliga, as they currently sit in seventh place in the table, having garnered 12 points from their opening seven matches in the German top-flight.

    However, Niko Kovac’s team are just two points adrift of the European spots in the Bundesliga.

    There has been a trend for the Wolves in the German top-flight this season, in that Wolfsburg have thrived on home soil but struggled on their travels.

    In fact, they have won all three of their home matches in the league this season while scoring at least two goals in each win.

    Danish star Jonas Wind has been highly effective at the Volkswagen Arena, scoring in every home win, having scored an impressive five goals in their three league matches this season.

    Bayer Leverkusen

    Die Werkself have been the team of the season so far in the Bundesliga and currently sit top of the table, having won six of their last seven matches in the German top-flight.

    The only blip in their stellar league form this season was a 2-2 draw at champions Bayern, which, in reality, is a highly respectable result.

    Their sheer potency in front of goal has been one of the factors for Xabi Alonso’s team's rise to the top, as Bayer has scored at least two goals in all seven league games this season.

    Leverkusen have also been tough to beat on their league travels since last season, as they have lost just one of their last 11 away games in the Bundesliga.
