We will have to take stock at the end of the season, but this match against Stuttgart this Friday will perhaps be one of the rare ones in which Leverkusen failed to find the way to the net. As part of the 9th day of the Bundesliga, Xabi Alonso’s men were indeed hooked by the other sensation of last season (0-0), thanks to a great Nübel.
With this result, Leverkusen misses the opportunity to get back on the heels of Leipzig. The reigning German champions are 3rd, and remain 4 points behind Bayern and their runner-up, Leipzig, who play this weekend. Stuttgart, for its part, is 7th.
