Following a week-long international break which saw Germany lose 3-2 to England and beat Italy 4-1, the DFB stars have returned to their respective clubs for the return of domestic competition. In the Bundesliga, the clubs have rounded the final corner and are preparing for a sprint finish. Can Dortmund catch Bayern before the end of the season? Who will secure Champions League football for next season? Whilst no one knows the answers to these questions, there is no doubting the importance of getting off to a good start.
The Bundesliga kicks off again tonight with a tasty encounter between Bayer 04 Leverkusen and VfL Wolfsburg. The two clubs find themselves in sixth and eighth place respectively, making this match crucial in the battle for a Champions League place. With just seven matches remaining, a loss tonight would be a massive blow and would serve only to increase the pressure in this important final period of the season. Wolfsburg will fancy their chances, having won each of their last four meetings with Bayer 04 in the Bundesliga. Having said that, they come up against a side that have won consecutive matches for the first time this year, and have a keeper who has not conceded in 304 minutes. With Wolfsburg having just won twice on the road so far this season, the Bayer 04 fans will be confident at the BayArena ahead of the game tonight. Kick-off: 20:30 CEST.
