It's very likely to happen that Bayer Leverkusen loses against Borussia Dortmund, but when you look at their performances from the past two months, Leverkusen surely has the upper hand.
It is possible. But if Dortmund's performance is not that good, then maybe the result will be the opposite. So far, Leverkusen's performance is much more consistent compared to Dortmund. Moreover, in the last 5 matches, Leverkusen got a perfect result of 5 wins. But still, Dortmund is not an easy opponent. So, let's see how both of them can be optimal in this match that will be very tight of course.Anyway, Leverkusen is just waiting for the completed step for Alejo.

It is an interesting match because the facts are quite straight: Dortmund has not lost a single game at home and Leverkusen has not lost a single game away from home
That is why I said a draw might be in the making here and it is definitely possible it could end like that. But both teams are in it to win it and both teams have a lot on the line here. If Dortmund loses it, the goal to become maybe vice champion is dead as that would make it 10 points between them and Leverkusen and I think most people would agree that 10 points is too much to be made up for by Dortmund over the course of this season.
For Leverkusen it is all about keeping up the pressure and hoping for Bayern to make mistakes. The only way to make sure that Bayern might make mistakes is to not make any mistakes themselves.
Besides that Dortmund vs. Leverkusen is the first game of the round, which means that the pressure on Bayern would be real. If Leverkusen wins it, the table looks quite different and Bayern feels Leverkusen's breath as it would only be 1 more point. I hope Leverkusen does it. It would be great for the Bundesliga.
