Current Form

Bayer Leverkusen and Wolfsburg will face off in a highly anticipated Bundesliga clash on Saturday, with both teams looking to continue their strong start to the season.

Leverkusen are unbeaten in their last four league matches, winning three and drawing one, while Wolfsburg have won two and drawn two of their last four.

Leverkusen will be without the suspended Jeremie Frimpong for the match, while Wolfsburg will be missing the injured Maximilian Arnold.

Both teams are expected to field strong lineups, with Leverkusen likely to start with Patrik Schick and Moussa Diaby in attack, and Wolfsburg likely to start with Lukas Nmecha and Maximilian Philipp up front.
