Team News

Leverkusen
FC Heidenheim
  • Amine Adli is likely to miss the rest of the year with a fractured fibula, while Jeanuël Belocian is struggling with a foot injury. Nordi Mukiele is nearing a return from a thigh injury.
  • Julian Niehues has a long-standing ACL injury, while Thomas Keller has a muscle injury. Lukas Janes is doubtful with a shoulder injury.

Prediction

  • Minnows Heidenheim have gained just a solitary point in their last five Bundesliga games and will also have one eye on midweek against Chelsea in the Conference League.
  • Xabi Alonso's record-breaking champions have slipped to fourth, nine points off the pace after sloppily drawing their last three games.
  • Leverkusen comfortably did the double last season and can clinch the three points as they look to close the gap at the top.
