Bayer Leverkusen are in very strong form, as are the hosts. This could be a classic at Anfield and I believe the visitors can take something from the game.

Head to Head

In five previous encounters, Liverpool have won on four occasions with just one Leverkusen win.

Liverpool Form

Arne Slot’s Liverpool are joint-top of the Champions League group, winning all three matches so far.

Victories over AC Milan 3-1, Bologna 2-0 and Leipzig 1-0 came during Liverpool’s eight-match winning streak. The Reds’ run of victories ended with a 2-2 draw at Arsenal before a 3-2 EFL Cup triumph at Brighton.

Slot’s outfit faced Brighton again on Saturday and came back from a goal down to win 2-1. The Merseysiders were 1-0 down at half time before Cody Gakpo and Mo Salah scored in the final 25 minutes.

Defender Ibrahima Konate came off injured against Brighton and is doubtful here.

Goalkeeper Alisson Becker and midfielder Harvey Elliott are injured and unavailable.

Forward pair Forward Federico Chiesa and Diogo Jota are also ruled out.

Bayer Leverkusen Form

Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen are inside the Champions League’s top eight after winning two and drawing once.

Xabi Alonso’s side held Brest 1-1 away in their last European game following wins against Feyenoord and AC Milan. Leverkusen drew 2-2 with Werder Bremen and beat Elversberg after the Brest stalemate.

Die Werkself had 2.78 XG and 19-5 shots in a 0-0 draw with Stuttgart on Friday. Victor Boniface and Edmond Tapsoba hit the crossbar but Leverkusen couldn’t find the breakthrough.

Defenders Nordi Mukiele and Jeanuel Belocian and winger Amine Adli are unlikely to feature due to injury.

Verdict

Liverpool v Bayer Leverkusen

Liverpool showed weaknesses against Brighton, especially in the first half. Leverkusen are in hard-to-beat form, rarely lose away and can win or draw in the Champions League.
