Leverkusen vs Copenhagen Prediction and Betting Tips

Bayer Leverkusen and Copenhagen will square off in a friendly on Sunday (January 15).

The hosts are coming off a 2-1 victory in a friendly over Italian side Venezia last week. Florian Wirtz and Amine Adli scored to give Leverkusen a two-goal lead at the break before Andrija Movakovich halved the deficit in the 68th minute.

Copenhagen, meanwhile, have not been in action since a 2-0 win at Aarhus in the Danish Super Liga before the 2022 FIFA World Cup break. Lukas Larager and Victor Kristansen scored two late goals to help them climb up to third spot in their flailing title defence.

Leverkusen vs Copenhagen Prediction

Leverkusen have been consistent during the break and will want to build on this good run on their competitive return. They have been particularly potent in attack and might be sharper than Copenhagen, who have not kicked a ball in almost two months.

Both sides are attack-minded and are likely to play the game on the front foot, leaving space behind to be exploited.

Leverkusen have superior players, and home advantage also gives them an edge. Xabi Alonso's side should claim a comfortable win in a high-scoring game.
