Our Predictions
Leverkusen’s home form is strong, and both teams have been scoring lately. Odds favor a narrow Leverkusen win in a lively game that features goals from both sides.
A draw is a real possibility given the recent head-to-head and the teams' attacking threat. Both sides are likely to find the net in a high-energy encounter.
Dortmund’s recent hot streak and their ability to score away suggest they can pull off an upset and threaten Leverkusen’s goal, with both teams making an impact.
Considering the recent cautious encounters and tight matches, a low-scoring game with a narrow Leverkusen victory is plausible.
A defensively solid draw cannot be ruled out, especially with both teams likely play it safe around big moments.
Welcome to Extratips, where today we’re diving into a tasty Bundesliga clash! Bayer Leverkusen, sitting pretty in second place with 68 points, host Borussia Dortmund, chasing behind with 52. The match kicks off on May 11th at 13:30 in Germany — prime time for some footie. Leverkusen’s last five at home? Mix of solid results, with 2 wins, 2 draws, and just a single loss, scoring 10 and conceding 8. Dortmund, away from home lately? An impressive 3 wins and 2 draws, showing resilience, especially after their 4-0 thrashing of Wolfsburg. The odds are tight: Bet365 favors a home win at 2.55, a draw at 3.90, and an away victory at 2.45 — so most punters see this one as a close call. Leverkusen boasts a 13-2-1 record at home, while Dortmund have been tough opponents on the road. The previous head-to-head? A 0-0 draw in January, so fireworks are expected. Key factors include Leverkusen’s potent attack and Dortmund’s recent resurgence with a 4-0 win, possibly giving the visitors a boost. Bit of a story? Can Leverkusen solidify their second spot, or will Dortmund spoil the party? Predictions? Expect a tight game, but with Leverkusen’s home advantage and slight edge, I see them edging a narrow win, maybe 2-1. Alternatively, a high-scoring draw is plausible, or Dortmund may snatch a point. Let’s unpack the best bets now.
