Best Tip: Leverkusen to win

The odds and our pre-match statistics below point in that direction too, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) information we factor into our predictive algorithms.

Goal Statistics

A PG of 2.8 is decent for Bayer Leverkusen in their clash with FC Red Bull Salzburg, as is their run of scoring 1 goal or more in 17 consecutive Champions League outings.

Scoring more than 1 goal looks unlikely for FC Red Bull Salzburg, with P. Lijnders's men failing to score in 3 consecutive Champions League matches.
