Why Bet on Bayer Leverkusen?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bayer Leverkusen’s season was close to perfection , after winning the Bundesliga undefeated with 28 victories and six draws, and also winning the German Cup without losing, they were just one step away from being champions of the Europa League, but lost in the final to Atalanta (3-0). <\/strong>

It was undoubtedly a hard blow for the German team, but it did not take away the happiness of having won the first league title in their history and of having captivated the whole world with great soccer, led from the bench by Xabi Alonso and on the field by Florian Wirtz, a young player who also shone in the last European Championship with Germany.

They managed to keep practically the entire team from last season and added some very good players who stood out in their clubs, such as Aleix Garc\u00eda in Girona and Jeanu\u00ebl Belocian and Martin Terrier in Stade Rennais. The only painful loss is defender Josip Stanisic, who returns to Bayern Munich after his loan spell. They are also negotiating with Joel Matip.

The preseason did not go well for them, with a 2-1 win over weak Essen of the German third division, draws with Lens (2-2) and Betis (1-1), and a 4-1 loss to Arsenal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Bet on Stuttgart?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not at the same level as Leverkusen, but Stuttgart’s performance was also surprising, beating Bayern M\u00fcnchen, and finishing runner-up in the Bundesliga,<\/a> as well as qualifying for the next Champions League. <\/strong>

However, the performance of Sebastian Hoenes’ team is unlikely to be repeated, due to the important losses they suffered. Striker Serhou Guirassy (28 Bundesliga goals, only behind Harry Kane’s 36) and defender and captain Waldemar Anton left for Borussia Dortmund, while Japan’s Hiroki Ito went to Bayern Munich. <\/strong>

Bosnian Ermedin Demirovic, who scored 15 goals for Augsburg last season, has arrived to replace Guirassy, while Yannik Keital (Freiburg) and Julian Chabot (Koln) have been brought in to strengthen the defense. The Swiss youngster Fabian Reider, who arrives on loan from Rennes, is also expected to play a big role.

Although the opponents were not strong, they had a very good preseason, winning four games and drawing one. The match that stands out was the last one, where they crushed Athletic Bilbao 4-0. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
