Insights / Pre Match

Bayer 04 Leverkusen have won three consecutive Bundesliga games against RB Leipzig for the first time – more wins than in their previous 13 top-flight encounters with the Bulls combined (W2). Meanwhile, Leipzig aren't currently on a losing run this long against any other side in the Bundesliga.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen are unbeaten in their last 35 Bundesliga games (W29, D6) – only two sides have ever managed to put together a longer run without defeat in league history. HSV went 36 matches without losing from 1982 to 1983, while FC Bayern went unbeaten in 53 straight games from 2012 to 2014.

RB Leipzig are unbeaten in their last 12 Bundesliga games (W8, D4), their joint-longest such run to date under Marco Rose (also 12 games at the turn of the year in 2022/23). Only Bayer 04 Leverkusen are currently on a longer run without defeat in the top flight (35 games). Across all competitions, Leipzig are actually unbeaten in 14 straight matches, their longest such run since the turn of the year in 2022/23 (18 games).

Last season saw Bayer 04 Leverkusen remain undefeated at home in the Bundesliga for the second time after 1999/2000. Across all competitions and going back to last season, the Werkself are without a loss in their last 29 matches at the BayArena (W22, D7) – their last defeat at home came in May 2023 in the Rhine derby against 1. FC Köln (2-1).

RB Leipzig have conceded at least once in each of their last 14 Bundesliga away games – a new negative club record. Across all competitions, they are without a clean sheet in their last 20 matches on their travels – another negative club record in professional football.
