Bayer Leverkusen vs Fortuna Dusseldorf Prediction & Betting Tips - DFB Pokal
by Kennedy Kechula | in DFB Pokal Prediction
Bundesliga high-fliers Bayer Leverkusen will host 2. Bundesliga side promotion hopefuls Fortuna Düsseldorf in a DFB Pokal semi final this Wednesday. Leverkusen have been the best side in Germany so far this season, and are in line for a treble. The Bundesliga leaders are yet to taste defeat this season and are the only topflight side remaining in this competition. It would be a shocker, with their performance this season, if Xabi Alonso’s side fail to win the German Cup. Coming to this game, they are on four straight wins and scored at least twice in each of their last 11 matches. However, defence hasn’t been their strongest department. Leverkusen have three clean sheets only in the last 10 matches. in their last five games, they conceded more than once in three. Both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals has been a recurring stat for Leverkusen. That was also the case in their last game, a 2-1 win over Hoffenheim when they needed two late goals to win it. Their 3-2 win over Stuttgart in the DFB Pokal quarters was the seventh in 10 matches in the competition that they failed to keep a clean sheet.
Fortuna Düsseldorf are promotion hopefuls, after a fairly good season in the second tier. They are currently third, occupying the playoff slot. In their last outing, they beat other DFB Pokal semifinalists Kaiserslautern 3-1, ending a run of two straight clean sheets. Their fine scoring run can’t go unnoticed; Fortuna Düsseldorf have netted in each of their last 12 matches. In each of their last six matches, they scored at least two goals but they have just three clean sheets in 14 matches. facing the Bundesliga leaders away from home promises to be a daunting task but Fortuna are unbeaten in four away games. They may still have jitters coming here but with 28 goals in the last 10 away matches, they’ll stay positive. Among Fortuna Düsseldorf’s targets for this game will be ending a six-game losing run against Bayer Leverkusen.

Our Bayer Leverkusen vs Fortuna Dusseldorf Prediction
Bayer Leverkusen, playing at home against Fortuna Düsseldorf will be outright favorites here. The one concern for them though, will be that they don’t keep many clean sheets. Their scoring form is not in question, and the same applies to the visitors, who have also done well in attack away from home. With these stats, both teams are coming from high scoring games with few clean sheets. Our prediction for Bayer Leverkusen v Fortuna Düsseldorf is therefore for both teams to score and over 2.5 goals.
