The read

The desk

Leverkusen look the far stronger side on paper, but two defeats in their last five away games and the losses of keeper Flekken and winger Tella take some shine off that. OFI have won three of their last four and both of their last two at home, so this carries more resistance than the short price implies.

The research

KILLED
Over 3.5 goals 1.94

The trap here is assuming a heavy favourite on a 5-game win streak means a laden scoreline. Leverkusen go in without Tella (foot) and with Schick, their striker, a doubt, trimming the attacking options that a 4-goal game usually needs, while OFI's own lift (3 wins in their last 4, including both of their last 2 at home) points to a tighter game than a blowout.

The research desk on this game:

“Leverkusen are much stronger, but their away form has dipped and OFI are in form at home.”
