Bayer Leverkusen vs Tottenham Predictions, Betting Tips and Preview

Bayer Leverkusen vs Tottenham predictions and Champions League betting tips for tonight’s fixture including three bet tips and the best odds.

 

Group E is a bit of a mix up of teams and Spurs fans would have been confident at topping the group before a ball was kicked, two games in though and it is Monaco who top the pile with only four points. Spurs lost to Monaco in the first game but went on to beat CSKA to put them second on three points. Leverkusen tally up two points as both their games ended up as draws. This group remains wide open and three points today could really split the top two teams from the bottom two.

 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Tottenham Predictions

 

The bookies have found it difficult to split these two sides and with good reason. When Spurs travel they are difficult to beat and with such a good run of form behind them they will not be rolled over by their German opposition. Leverkusen however, possess a couple of individual talents and although they find it difficult to win in Europe they also find it difficult to lose proven by them drawing five of their last six Champions League games. The odds on Spurs to win are tasty, however this game has the potential of a draw written all over it; regardless of that I always back the English teams so my first Bayer Leverkusen vs Tottenham betting tip is the slightly safer option of Tottenham Draw No Bet at 6/4 with William Hill.

Leverkusen’s last six games has involved both teams scoring with an average of 3.8 goals per game although 13 of them did come in the two games featuring Roma at the back end of last year. Without those fixtures they are very prone to a 1-1 draw in Europe and I’m sure they would take that this time around. Spurs last six games have only involved one game in which both teams scored which came in their first group game. Spurs away from home are going to be happy to take a slender victory and ensure they come home with one foot in the knockout stages. I am going for BTTS NO and Under 2.5 goals at 15/8 with Coral for my second Bayer Leverkusen vs Tottenham prediction tonight.

Anytime Goalscorer Tips

Son didn’t feature much at the weekend which suggests the boss had this game in mind for him. He has been in tremendous form which saw him grab the award for Septembers player of the month in the league and it looks like he is going to get the nod over Janssen to lead the lineup. If so, he is the man I would expect to put the ball in the back of net for my Bayer Leverkusen vs Tottenham tip on the anytime goalscorer market and you can join me on Son to score anytime at 12/5 with Paddy Power.

Leverkusen vs Tottenham Team News

Spurs are without Alderweireld in this game and it looks like Dier could be the man who is expected to fill his place, a little strange some may say but he hasn’t been able to pick up on last season’s form and Wanyama is the man more likely to fill the CDM role. Son is predicted to start over Janssen with Kane still out and apart from that you should expect a standard starting 11 from the visitors. Leverkusen are expected to stick to their normal starting 11 as they need the victory if they want to get out the group, the main names to focus on for them here will be the scoring machine Hernandez and the set piece specialist Calhanoglu.

 

Head to Head

There isn’t much to report on here as the last time these two met was 10 years ago now in the “Europa League” in its current form and that game Spurs travelled to Germany and took home a 1-0 win. You can’t look at this result in comparison to this game as both sides have changed, obviously, since then.

 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Tottenham Betting Odds

As mentioned Leverkusen do love to get a goal, Hernandez has been in good form once again for the Germans with five goals in six appearances and one in this competition so far. I like the look of him anytime at 6/4 with Sky Bet or for better odds an anytime double of Hernandez/Son at a massive 7/1 with the same bookies. As the home side they are expected to push forward a lot more and bring the game to Spurs and if Dier is brought into the defence we can expect a couple of free kick opportunities; Calhanoglu will be all over these and for him to score from outside the box is tempting at 7/2 with Sky Bet.
