League Leaders Bayern Leverkusen are unbeaten for eight matches and the would look forward to continue the form as they take on 12th place Hannover at AWD Arena tomorrow.
Bayer Leverkusen without doubt are the best team in Germany having gone undefeated in league play, die Werkself kept pace with Hamburg for several weeks, and now are far above the rest.
Stefan Kiebling hat-trick and Eren Derdiyok header pushed Leverkusen three points clear at the top of the league with a 4-0 vicotry over Stuttgart in their last outing.
With arguably the league’s best goalkeeper (Rene Adler), defender (Sami Hyypia), midfield combination (Kroos, Barnetta, Rolfes, and Vidal), and striker (Stefan Kiessling), Leverkusen should expect to win every match from now until the winter break.
Hannover may have lost their last two matches by a combined 5-0, but both scorelines flattered their opponents. Both matches included last-minute goals after the results were, more or less, decided, and both results fail to accurately represent the quality Hannover displayed.
In their most recent match with Bayern, Hannover held 48 per cent of the possession, a statistic even Leverkusen were unable to match. Looking ahead, Hannover will have a mountain to climb if they are to take a win, but a blowout is certainly not to be expected.
