The match between Club Bruges and Bayer Leverkusen will kick off this coming Wednesday at Jan Breydel Stadion. This is a match in round one of the Champions League group stages this season.

Club Bruges are considered hefty outsiders for just about everything when joining the Champions League this season. Winning the title would be shock of the century when even a third place finish in the group look a stretch.

Bayer Leverkusen enter the Champions League as big outsiders for actually winning the title, when once again going up against the big guns. However, getting through to the knockout round is not beyond their capabilities, should they gain a bit of momentum.

Club Bruges scored 2.4 goals on average in their past ten matches, hitting the target 24 times. They conceded 13 goals, an average of 1.3 and pulled off three clean sheets.

Bayer Leverkusen scored 17 times in their previous ten matches, an average of 1.7 per game. They also conceded 16 goals for an average of 1.6 a game, pulling off two clean sheets in these.

Club Bruges vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction

In their last three outings, Club Bruges won 2-1 against Kortrijk, beat Sporting Charleroi by 1-3 and hammered Cercle Bruges 4-0. In their last six Champions League matches at home, Club Bruges have one win, while they've drawn two and lost three.

It is all or nothing with Bayer Leverkusen, who only triumphed once in their previous three outings. They were defeated 0-3 against Hoffenheim, before beating Mainz 05 0-3. Unable to build on that, they lost 2-3 against Freiburg. Bayer Leverkusen, meanwhile, won twice, while they've drawn two and lost two in their last six away in the Champions League.

While not quite trusting Club Bruges with the home win, we still find them a better betting option than an unimpressive Bayer Leverkusen team. We settled for the draw-no-bet or double-chance.
