Bayer Leverkusen enter this DFB Pokal clash as clear favourites, with the market and their superior form aligning decisively. The visitors have won their last match and boast an average of 2.4 goals scored per game, while conceding just 0.8, keeping two clean sheets in their last five outings. In contrast, SV Wehen are mired in a three-match losing streak, have failed to score in three of their last five, and concede an average of 2.4 goals per game. The gulf in class is stark, and the odds reflect a heavy away lean.
Form Analysis: Bayer Leverkusen's recent form (DLWWL) shows resilience and attacking potency, with a current win streak. SV Wehen's form is dire: three consecutive losses, no clean sheets, and a goal-scoring drought that has seen them blanked in three of five matches. The momentum is overwhelmingly in Leverkusen's favour.
Key Factors: First, SV Wehen's defensive frailty — conceding 2.4 goals per game — will be exploited by Leverkusen's potent attack. Second, Leverkusen's attacking efficiency (2.4 goals per game) against a side that has kept zero clean sheets in five matches. Third, the weather conditions (patchy rain, strong impact) may favour a physical style, but Leverkusen's technical superiority should still prevail.
Conclusion: All data points to a comfortable away victory. Leverkusen's quality, form, and attacking depth make them overwhelming favourites, and SV Wehen's struggles suggest they will struggle to contain the Bundesliga side. Expect Leverkusen to control the match and secure a convincing win.
