Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the UEFA Europa League match.
Bayer
Bayer have won 7 out of the 8 games played in spring. Only their away game against Qarabağ ended in a draw (2:2). This seems to be the only team that has managed to become a problem for Bayer as the German side has taken 28 points in the last 10 Bundesliga games, conceding only 5 goals. Bayer have won 7 out of the last 8 home games this year.
West Ham
West Ham beat Wolverhampton (2:1) on Saturday. This was their first win in the last 5 Premier League games. West Ham eliminated Freiburg in the previous stage (5:1 on aggregate). However, they lost their away game in Germany (0:1).
Bayer – West Ham prediction
After beating Union on Saturday (1:0) and due to the fact that Bayern lost some points, Bayer can become the champions in the next Bundesliga round.
Bayer and West Ham played a friendly match in August, prior to the start of the season. The German side won (4:0). Bayer will play actively on the opponent’s side of the pitch. The home team will win.
