"Collecting a heavyweight domestic scalp prior to Germany's festive break as they stormed their way to a 3-1 victory away at RB Leipzig, the former Denmark boss finds the mood in his camp at a real high. Skyrocketing themselves into bronze medal position, Leverkusen have lost just a pair of their previous 10 appearances across all competitions and they have also suffered just a single Bundesliga defeat in front of their own supporters since the end of August."
"Still away featuring at this month's AFCON, Bayer Leverkusen will once again be unable to call upon the trio of Eliesse Ben Seghir, Edmond Tapsoba and summer recruit Ibrahim Maza here. However, serving a one-match suspension against RB Leipzig last time out, former Liverpool starlet Jarell Quansah should be handed a full recall. Finding the net at the Red Bull Arena prior to Germany's festive break, Czech Republic international Patrik Schick will lead the line this weekend."
Bayer Leverkusen have rebounded strongly under Kasper Hjulmand, earning a 3-1 win at RB Leipzig and climbing to third in the Bundesliga. The side have lost only two of their last ten matches and suffered a single home league defeat since late August. AFCON call-ups will leave Leverkusen without Eliesse Ben Seghir, Edmond Tapsoba and Ibrahim Maza, but Jarell Quansah should return from suspension. Patrik Schick is expected to lead the attack and Mark Flekken will start in goal following his permanent move from Brentford. Stuttgart finished in the top half last season and began 2025/26 targeting a return to European competition.
