Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Dortmund will clash this Saturday in what promises to be one of the Bundesliga's most entertaining fixtures. Leverkusen have remained near the top of the league, powered by a potent attack that recently put six goals past Heidenheim. Despite that, they've stumbled defensively, falling 3-1 at home to Wolfsburg and conceding three at Bayern.
European competition has also challenged them, with a 2-0 away loss to Manchester City exposing defensive gaps. Their tendency to dominate possession and create chances remains, but lapses in defensive structure cost them. Dortmund have also struggled for consistency. A recent 3-3 draw against Stuttgart and a 1-1 tie with Hamburg suggest their inability to close out games.
However, an earlier 2-1 win against Bayern confirmed their high ceiling. Their Champions League run has included mixed results, making their overall form difficult to read. Both teams score regularly but concede enough to make every match a shootout.

Our Bayer Leverkusen vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
Leverkusen's Patrik Schick is in good scoring form, using his physicality and instinct to convert chances. Karim Bellarabi provides width and flair, while the midfield benefits from the presence of Florian Wirtz, whose creativity is essential in tight matches. Dortmund counters with Karim Adeyemi, a pacey forward who stretches defenses, and Julian Brandt, who creates opportunities in the final third.
In defense, Mats Hummels' experience is still valuable, though age has slightly dulled his recovery speed. Dortmund's inconsistencies stem from a sometimes porous back line, while Leverkusen's firepower allows them to overcome deficits. With the home crowd and more consistent attacking rhythm, Leverkusen have a slight edge in what could be a high-scoring affair. Our prediction for Bayer Leverkusen vs. Borussia Dortmund: Under 3.5 goals.
