Leverkusen vs Wolfsburg Predictions: Xabi Alonso Favored

Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen in Top Form

After an indifferent start to the Bundesliga campaign, Xabi Alonso's Bayer Leverkusen have found their rhythm, winning four of their last five league games.

The Werkself's resurgence has been built on a solid defense, which has kept three clean sheets in their last four outings.

Leverkusen's attack has also clicked into gear, with Moussa Diaby and Patrik Schick in fine form.

Wolfsburg Struggling for Consistency

In contrast to Leverkusen's recent form, Wolfsburg have been struggling for consistency this season.

Niko Kovac's side have won just two of their last seven Bundesliga games and have conceded 11 goals in that period.

Wolfsburg's defense has been particularly vulnerable to set pieces, which could be a concern against Leverkusen's aerial threat.

Leverkusen Favored to Win

Based on current form, Leverkusen are the clear favorites to win this match.

Alonso's side have been in excellent form in recent weeks and will be confident of extending their winning run.

Wolfsburg, on the other hand, have been struggling for consistency and will need to improve defensively if they are to get anything from this game.

Prediction: Leverkusen 2-0 Wolfsburg

Leverkusen's superior form and home advantage should see them claim a comfortable victory over Wolfsburg.

The Werkself are likely to dominate possession and create the better chances, and their defense should be too strong for Wolfsburg's misfiring attack.
