Leverkusen have a chance to win a historic treble
Bayer Leverkusen are the first team in history to go the full Bundesliga season without losing, so to say they are on the verge of greatness would be an injustice. They already have to go down as one of the greatest teams in German history.
With only Atalanta standing in their way of earning the club’s first continental title since winning the trophy in its former iteration as the UEFA Cup in 1988, Xabi Alonso’s team has the opportunity to become conquerors in Europe as well in Dublin.
Even though Leverkusen’s path to the championship game hasn’t been easy—they nearly lost their last-16 match against Qarabağ and needed extra time in the semifinal match against Roma—they will be the favourites to win the cup in Ireland.
With Florian Wirtz anticipated to return from a thigh injury that kept him out of the latest Bundesliga match in Bochum and Odilon Kossounou expected to recuperate from a condition that saw him replaced in that match, Alonso should have a complete squad available for selection.
Victor Boniface, who scored the most goals for them in the Bundesliga and the Europa League the previous season, might start the game as a substitute, with Patrik Schick getting the start. Matěj Kovář ought to start as the favoured cup goalkeeper in goal.
In 2023–24, Leverkusen won 42 of their 51 undefeated games while drawing the remaining nine.With 31 goals so far this season, Bayer are the top scorer in the league.
After Bayern Munich, Leverkusen are attempting to become just the second German team to accomplish a treble including a European trophy.
