Leverkusen’s Granit Xhaka celebrates scoring
For the first time in 120 years, Bayer Leverkusen ended Munich’s dominance in the league, as they won the Bundesliga unbeaten. They have another chance in the 2024/25 season to prove themselves untouchable as they go toe to toe with regular winners in the German topflight Bayern Munich.
Leverkusen ain’t the favourites as they’ve been given 3.5 odds by 1xbet compared to Munich’s 1.55 odds. It clearly indicates that Bayern have a chance to snatch the title away from Leverkusen.
For Borussia Dortmund, who fumbled last season but one are the third favourites with 12 odds followed by RB Leipzig who have been given 15.
Last season, Bayer Leverkusen came agonisingly close to securing a European title, losing 3-0 to Atalanta in the Europa League final. However, by winning the Bundesliga, they earned a spot in the Champions League, giving them a chance to compete for the prestigious trophy.
Despite this achievement, Leverkusen are not among the favourites in a tournament dominated by heavyweights. Real Madrid, known for their dominance in the Champions League, have odds of 4.00.
The favourites, Manchester City, lead with 3.25 odds, followed by Arsenal at 10.00, Arsenal at 11.00, and both Barcelona and Bayern Munich at 13.00. PSG and Inter Milan are also in contention with 17.00 odds each. Leverkusen, with odds of 26.00, will need to overcome significant challenges to make their mark among Europe’s elite.
Bayer Leverkusen to win DFB Pokal at 5 odds
As the defending champions, Bayer Leverkusen clinched the DFB Pokal last season with a 1-0 victory over FC Kaiserslautern, a 2. Bundesliga side. Despite this triumph, they are not the favourites to win the 2024/25 DFB Pokal.
Bayern Munich leads the odds with 2.50, followed by Leverkusen at 5.00, Borussia Dortmund at 9.00, RB Leipzig at 10.00, VfB Stuttgart at 13.00, and Eintracht Frankfurt at 26.00. Leverkusen will face stiff competition as they aim to retain their title and assert their dominance in a tournament typically dominated by heavyweights like Bayern Munich.
Bayer Leverkusen to finish in top four at 1.03 odds
Leverkusen are strongly favoured to secure a top-four finish in the upcoming Bundesliga season, with odds of 1.03 reflecting their high chances. Having achieved this feat last season, Leverkusen possess the capacity and squad depth to repeat their success.
Bayern Munich are the frontrunners with 1.01 odds, while Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig both have 1.45 odds. The likelihood of Leverkusen finishing outside the top four is slim, with odds of 9 indicating it is a less probable outcome.
Leverkusen’s strong position underscores their potential to remain among the league’s elite teams.>>>CONTINUE FULL READING HERE
