Leverkusen look to shore up defence, Bayern eye third straight win

Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich will be looking to make it three wins from three when they travel to Bayer Leverkusen on Saturday.

Leverkusen have had a difficult start to the season, losing their opening two games. They will be hoping to turn things around against Bayern, but they will need to improve their defence, which has conceded five goals in two matches.

Bayern, on the other hand, have been in impressive form. They have scored six goals in their opening two games and will be confident of adding to that tally against Leverkusen.

Here is a preview of the match:

Team News

Leverkusen will be without injured defenders Jonathan Tah and Edmond Tapsoba. Bayern will be without suspended midfielder Joshua Kimmich.

Head-to-Head

Prediction

Bayern are the clear favorites to win this match. They have a better squad and are in better form. Leverkusen will need to play out of their skins to get anything from this game.
