Bayer Leverkusen Insights.

Bayer Leverkusen host Nice in this Europa League (UEL) Group C clash, with the hosts hoping to rebalance their European H2H record against French opposition (W6, D4, L7 – GF 22 GA 23). They have not lost a single Bundesliga game this campaign (W1, D3) , with the last three witnessing the opening goal scored by the 30th minute. The hosts can also take confidence from the fact they are unbeaten in their last 12 home UEL/UEFA Cup group stage matches (W9, D3), with seven wins coming ‘to-nil. Entertaining second halves were a common theme for those games, with the vast majority (76%) of the match goals being scored after HT, and 64% in or after the 60th minute.

Nice Insights.

There should be a winner one way or another, as Nice have never registered a single draw across their two historical UEL group stage campaigns (W5, L7). Additionally, seven of their eight European matches vs German opposition have been won/lost either way (W2, D1, L5). Just one of those eight fixtures witnessed goals at both ends. Netting first could be the visitors’ key to victory, as each of Nice’s last eight UEL away fixtures (qualifiers included) saw the victorious side on the day score first (W2, L6). However, the fact that Nice are yet to score a goal on German soil will not bring confidence to their fans, although just one road defeat in Ligue 1 this season (W2, D1, L1) provides some optimism.
