Level 1 Bet Builder Tip

🎯 Florian Wirtz to have 1+ Shots on Target

📈 Odds: 1.57

Florian Wirtz, one of Germany’s brightest talents, continues to dazzle with his attacking flair. A key player in Leverkusen’s title-winning campaign, Wirtz has carried that form into this new season under Xabi Alonso’s guidance. Averaging 2.8 shots per game and 1.4 on target, his influence in attack is undeniable. In his last 5 outings, he’s taken 3 or more shots in 4 matches and hit the target in 3 of them. Scoring in 3 of his last 4 appearances only cements his value as a reliable bet for at least one shot on target.

🏆 Leverkusen Double Chance

📈 Odds: 1.40

Dortmund’s home dominance has waned, with no wins in their last 3 matches at the BVB Stadium. Meanwhile, Leverkusen’s ability to convert performances into results has been a hallmark of their season. With both fixtures last season ending in 1-1 draws, Leverkusen securing a win or draw is a shrewd leg to add in.

🥅 Both Teams to Score

📈 Odds: 1.44

Both sides boast impressive attacking firepower, but defensive inconsistencies make goals at both ends a likely outcome. Dortmund’s recent record backs this selection: BTTS has landed in their last 5 competitive games, with 8 of 11 home fixtures following suit. For Leverkusen, scoring in all but one away game this season underscores their offensive prowess, even against elite opponents. However, defensive lapses mean BTTS has landed in 6 of their 7 Bundesliga away matches. Given last season’s tightly contested encounters, expect both teams to find the net once again.

🛑 Edmond Tapsoba to Commit 1+ Fouls

📈 Odds: 1.22

Leverkusen’s defensive stalwart Edmond Tapsoba faces a significant challenge in containing Dortmund’s dynamic attack, particularly Serhou Guirassy, who averages 2.05 fouls drawn per game. Tapsoba, who averages 1.28 fouls per game, has committed at least one foul in his last 7 matches as well as an incredible 15 of his last 17 starts. Given his pivotal defensive role, committing at least one foul feels inevitable in this high-octane matchup.

Level 2 Bet Builder Tip

🎯 Alex Grimaldo to have 1+ Shots on Target

📈 Odds: 2.10

Xabi Alonso’s innovative tactics have transformed Alejandro Grimaldo into a critical offensive force for Leverkusen. Functioning more like a winger than a traditional left back, Grimaldo averages 1.84 shots per game and 0.68 on target. Whilst he has not been as prolific in recent games, hitting the target in 4 of his last 8, his ability to exploit advanced positions has seen him thrive against Dortmund, previously registering 4 shots and one on target in their last 2 encounters. As Leverkusen continue to use their full backs aggressively, expect Grimaldo to maintain this attacking impetus.

⚽🤝 Florian Wirtz to Score or Assist

📈 Odds: 2.10

Whether deployed as an attacking midfielder or part of a striker duo, Florian Wirtz is a constant threat. His 15 goal contributions (7 goals, 8 assists) in the Bundesliga, coupled with an additional 5 goals in other competitions, underline his influence. With 3 goals in his last 4 games and 7 assists in his previous 9 appearances, Wirtz is a strong contender to deliver a decisive moment on Friday night. To fortify this selection, Wirtz thrives against Dortmund as 5 goal contributions (3 goals, 2 assists) in his last 7 appearances against the Black and Yellow attests to.

🎯 Patrik Schick to have 1+ Shots on Target

📈 Odds: 1.40

The return of Patrik Schick bolsters Leverkusen’s attack significantly. Averaging 2.2 shots per game and 1.15 on target, Schick has been clinical, hitting the target in each of his last 5 starts and netting 10 goals in that span. Likely leading the line as a lone striker, his presence ensures consistent pressure on Dortmund’s goalkeeper. Expect Schick to register at least one shot on target.

🩹 Nathan Tella to be Fouled 2+ Times

📈 Odds: 1.44

Nathan Tella’s growing prominence in Leverkusen’s attack makes him a magnet for fouls. The Nigerian international averages 1.4 fouls drawn per game and has drawn 2 or more in 3 of his last 4 matches. Facing Dortmund’s left-sided trio, who have committed 17 fouls in their last 6 games, Tella’s ability to provoke challenges positions him as a reliable bet for this market.
