Key Europa League Predictions For Leverkusen vs Monaco

Leverkusen hosts an in-form Monaco on the 16^th of February in the Europa League in hopes of getting a comfortable first-leg victory.

Monaco to Win

We have no idea what the bookies are thinking providing us with such amazing odds for a Monaco win on Thursday. Sure, Leverkusen are the ones with the home-field advantage but it certainly didn’t seem to matter much in recent matches for die Werkself.

They lost their last match at home versus Borussia Dortmund. The visitors pipped them 0-2 at BayArena. Furthermore, even Club Brugge got a goalless tie out of their visit here. Meanwhile, Monaco are on the other extreme. They even thrashed the almighty PSG last week and will undoubtedly do their best to defeat the far lesser Leverkusen side.

Wissam Ben Yedder to Score Anytime

Monaco’s 32-year-old captain is aging like a fine wine and it showed in the match against PSG on the 11^th of February. His lovely brace proved decisive as Monaco took the three points in the bag leaving Lionel Messi and his teammates in disbelief.

Wissam Ben Yedder is Monaco’s top scorer this season and with 14 goals to his name, he’s also one of the top scorers in Ligue 1 as well. Our key Leverkusen vs Monaco prediction this week favors him to slide it past Lukas Hradecky at least once.

BTTS

We can go all day about how amazing Monaco’s attack is this season but we have to be objective here and say that their defense is somewhat leaky. Sure, there’s nothing shameful about conceding a goal to PSG. After all, football superstars Lionel Messi and Neymar were threatening Lukas Hradecky’s penalty box last week.

What is puzzling, however, is seeing Monaco concede goals against the likes of Ajaccio and Auxerre.
