THE PREDICTION

Following a surprise 3-2 defeat against Mainz last time out in the Bundesliga, the gap between third-placed Bayer Leverkusen and second-placed Borussia Dortmund now stands at eight points ahead of this latest round of fixtures. Gerardo Seoane’s Leverkusen are now set to entertain Arminia Bielefeld, whose recent renaissance has lifted them out of the bottom three. Aware of the threat posed by the hosts, Arminia are expected to set up defensive and keep plenty of bodies behind the ball, which could well lead to a frustrating afternoon for Leverkusen who are without star striker Patrik Schick through injury. With that in mind, it would be no surprise if this did not turn out to be an entertaining goal-fest that you usually associate with Leverkusen, so consider backing under 3.5 goals scored.
