Form, Standings, Stats

Last Game: Salzburg 1-2 LASK
Saturday, November 23 at 4pm in Austrian Bundesliga

We said: Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 Red Bull Salzburg

Salzburg's stellar beating of a 10-man Feyenoord side was not a sign of things to come for Tuesday's visitors, who are still flattering to deceive domestically and are at risk of a rude awakening in Leverkusen. Even with a handful of attacking talents missing through injury, Alonso's men should prove far too potent for Salzburg's young guns, and the Bundesliga champions have our vote to stroll to a comfortable win.
