Greuther Furth vs Bayer Leverkusen Analysis<\/h2>\n

Bayer Leverkusen travels to bottom-of-the-table Gruether Fuerth on Saturday in the Bundesliga with the visitors in desperate need of a win here as they look to stave off the challenge from a streaking Freiburg team for the last remaining Champions League spot.<\/p>\n

Just two wins over their last six games however hardly inspires much confidence ahead of this game, but Gruether Fuerth has secured just three wins all year, the last coming all the way back on February 12th.<\/p>\n

WIll Lightning Strike Twice for Leverkusen?<\/h3>\n

This isn\u2019t a new position for \u2018Die Werkself\u2019 to be in as they arguably choked down the stretch last season to miss out on Champions League football.<\/p>\n

Sitting second in the league behind Bayern Munich on New Year\u2019s Day last year, Bayer Leverkusen managed just four wins from their final 14 games of the season to drop out of automatic European contention.<\/p>\n

And Leverkusen appears to be following the exact same trajectory this season sitting in third position in the league just two weeks ago but now in danger of dropping out of the top five completely, should Freiburg and Union Berlin go on strong runs to close out the season.<\/p>\n

Must-Win Territory For Greuther Fuerth<\/h3>\n

Anything other than a win here for Gruether Fuerth on Saturday and it\u2019s game over for them in terms of staying in the Bundesliga for another year.<\/p>\n

With Union Berlin and Borussia Dortmund still on deck for Gruether Fuerth after this game, the damage is arguably already done and the Fuerth based team basically need a miracle to stay up at this point.<\/p>\n

However, with just two home games remaining on the season, they\u2019ll likely want to put on a show for their fans on Saturday and potentially delay their official departure from the Bundesliga for at least another while.<\/p>\n

Greuther Furth vs Bayer Leverkusen\u00a0Prediction<\/h2>\n

We like Bayer Leverkusen in this one at the current -1.25 handicap line here on Saturday.<\/p>\n

While Leverkusen has no doubt struggled of late, they\u2019ve been excellent against the bottom tier sides in the Bundesliga this season, beating the other relegation candidates VfB Stuttgart 7-3 over two games this season, Arminia Bielefeld 7-0 over two games this season also and have already beaten Greuther Fuerth 7-1, so we expect another similar display here on Saturday.<\/p>\n

This is must-win terrority for Bayer Leverkusen this weekend and we like them to deliver on the -1.25 handicap line on Saturday against Gruether Fuerth over in the Bundesliga.<\/p>\n
