An interesting observation emerges when looking at Bayer Leverkusen’s upcoming schedule: their next match is against FC Koln, the very same team to which they last suffered a defeat. For the period of the next 30 days, Leverkusen faces relatively easy fixtures, at least on paper. Alongside the game with FC Koln, they are set to encounter Qarabag twice in the Europa League, and take on rivals Wolfsburg, Freiburg, and Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga.
