Bayer Leverkusen, the German champions, will commence their comeback to the Champions League with an out-match against Feyenoord to kick off the league phase. Considering both teams’ recent performance and characteristics, bookmakers favour Bayer to triumph over Feyenoord.
On Thursday, September 19, at the Feijenoord Stadium in Rotterdam, the home team is looking to secure their second victory of the season. This confrontation also signifies the beginning of their consecutive second appearance in the Champions League at this stage. The visitors possess a superior pedigree despite their absence from last season’s edition.
Leverkusen’s journey in Europe during the 2023/24 season, remarkable as it was, concluded in disappointment, suffering a 3-0 loss to Atalanta in the Europa League final. The Germans are not frequent participants in the Champions League, and this represents their third appearance in the past eight seasons. During the 2022/23 season, they secured a third-place finish in their group, resulting in a transition to the Europa League.
