With three games remaining in the Bundesliga season, Bayer Leverkusen takes on Eintracht Frankfurt with the hosts looking to cement their place inside the Champions League qualifying positions.

In what is proving to be a tight and tense finale in Germany, just 3 points separate Leverkusen, currently third in the league with seventh-placed Union Berlin. Indeed, with Freiburg, RB Leipzig and Koln all breathing down their neck, Leverkusen know that only a win will do here against a visiting Frankfurt side focused on Thursday´s Europa League semi-final second leg against West Ham.

Frankfurt comes into this fixture having failed to win any of their last 5 league outings with their attention seemingly diverted by their super run to the EL semi-finals and with West Ham to come on Thursday, we expect a weakened starting 11 and with that, the initiative should be handed to a Leverkusen side with 3 wins in their last 5

History suggests that we should expect goals on Monday evening with this fixture seeing over 2.5 goals scored in a remarkable 14 of the last 15 meetings since 2015. 10 of those matches also saw BTTS.

In their most recent meetings, a remarkable 41 goals have been scored in the last 9 fixtures, that´s an average of 4.5 per match.

Intriguingly, each of the last 9 meetings between these sides have been won by the home side while Leverkusen have won and scored at least 3 goals in each of their last 7 home matches against The Eagles and with the visitors having at least one eye on Thursday´s big match, we expect Leverkusen to record another comfortable home victory in a fixture that is so often blessed with plenty of goalmouth action.
