Only one team can advance to the quarter-finals, with Bayern opening up a seven-point lead over Leverkusen in the league heading into this contest - but, Xabi Alonso has never lost any of his four meetings against Bayern as Leverkusen manager.
- Leverkusen are unbeaten in their last four meetings with Bayern
- Bayern have failed to beat a top five side in the Bundesliga this season
- Leverkusen are unbeaten in their last 11 games in all competitions
- Leverkusen have scored 12 goals in their last three games
- Patrick Schick has scored six goals in his last four games
Head To Head
Leverkusen have won two of the last four meetings between the teams, with the two games played at Bayern's Allianz Arena resulting in 1-1 and 2-2 draws.
Bayern Munich Form
Vincent Kompany has guided his team into a strong position in their quest to reclaim the Bundesliga title, with Bayern four points ahead of Frankfurt and seven clear of Leverkusen after winning nine of the opening 12 games.
However, in saying that, Bayern haven't really proven themselves against the elite sides so far this term. That's not to say they're flat-track bullies by any stretch, but they have failed to beat a top five Bundesliga side so far this term, drawing with Frankfurt and Leverkusen, while they also shared the spoils 1-1 with Dortmund this past weekend.
Throw in Champions League defeats against Barcelona and Aston Villa and it's not controversial to suggest that Bayern still have a lot of work to do in order to get back to their dominant best.
Bayern have also suffered a big blow for this encounter, with star striker Harry Kane set to miss the clash through injury.
Bayer Leverkusen Form
It was always going to be tough for Leverkusen to repeat their extraordinary season from last term, but so far, they're doing a solid job.
Leverkusen head into this encounter on the back of an 11-game unbeaten run, which includes a three-game winning streak in all competitions in which they've banged home 12 goals.
Leverkusen crushed Heidenheim 5-2 and Union Berlin 2-1 either side of a 5-0 Champions League demolition of Salzburg in that period.
Czech striker Patrick Schick has been on fire during that stretch, scoring in his last four consecutive appearances and netting six overall.

Verdict
As mentioned, Bayern haven't convinced against fellow top sides so far this season and Leverkusen are in great form heading into this encounter, while they won't be overawed in the slightest having won two of the last four meetings and avoided defeat in the other two.
Leverkusen looks the value bet here, while Patrick Schick can continue his red-hot goalscoring form.
