Direct passage is a huge boost
The Citizen
|February 01, 2025
Bayer Leverkusen are taking the belief gained from finishing in the top eight of the Champions League standings into the latter stages of their Bundesliga title defence.
-
Xabi Alonso's men, who sit six points behind leaders Bayern Munich in second place in the German top flight, host Hoffenheim this weekend, fresh from securing direct passage to the Champions League last-16 by beating Sparta Prague on Wednesday.
"That's why we play in the Champions League - to compete at the highest level," said Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah (above).
"We have shown that we can compete with anyone at this level."
Leverkusen have only lost one domestic match since the start of last season in a remarkable run.
