The Bayer Leverkusen team will challenge the Hacken team in a 1e ronde Europa League in BayArena Stadium, Leverkusen on Thursday, September 21, 2023. For streaming coverage of Bayer Leverkusen vs Hacken, preview and how to watch it, see in this article.
Leverkusen will host Hacken at the BayArena in the opening Europa League group match, Thursday (21/9) afternoon. The home team is ambitious to start with a win in European competition after an impressive performance in the Bundesliga.
Leverkusen managed to qualify for the Europa League group stages after finishing sixth in the Bundesliga last season. The aim of Xabi Alonso’s team in the new season is to compete for a place in the top four and try to progress as far as possible in European competition.
Leverkusen had a superb start to the Bundesliga by winning three games in a row, including a dramatic victory over RB Leipzig, then holding reigning champions Bayern Munich to a draw in the final game to stay top of the standings. Previously, they also destroyed Teutonia Ottensen with a score of 8-0 in the German Cup.
Tonight, Leverkusen will turn to European competition, where they will also be eager to achieve their best. Their first opponent was Hacken, the Swedish champion.
Hacken had to go down to the Europa League after being knocked out of the Champions League in the second round by KI Klaksvik. Then, they managed to beat Zalgiris (third round of Europa League qualifying), Aberden (play-off round) to get a ticket to the group stage.
However, Hacken has not had a good run of late, especially when it comes to away games. They have lost two of their last three away games and will face a lot of difficulties when they have to face Leverkusen.
Statistically, Bayer Leverkusen is more favored in this match. Leverkusen are in very high spirits after the success since the start of the season. They also have the advantage of playing at home and superior team quality to Hacken. If they play to their maximum ability, Leverkusen can fully achieve a big win.
