Leverkusen Hold Edge in Bundesliga Clash

Leverkusen occupy sixth place after eight games with 13 points while Cologne sit 13th on nine. The visitors have taken three wins from their last five matches across all competitions. They average 2.3 goals scored per league game this season and have hit three or more total goals in seven of eight outings. Head to head meetings show Leverkusen claiming seven victories in the past ten encounters. Cologne have managed just one clean sheet in their eight league fixtures and concede an average of 1.5 goals per game. Leverkusen also score 2.0 goals per away league match despite their own leaky defence. The game may turn on whether Leverkusen can break down a Cologne side that has been hard to score against at the RheinEnergieStadion.
