The UEFA Europa League returns to the fold with another round of matches this week as Bayer Leverkusen lock horns with AS Monaco in an important clash at the BayArena on Thursday.

The home side will head into this game in 8th position in the Bundesliga standings and they have been plagued with inconsistency throughout this season. They are currently with just 27 points and have struggled to find the back the back of the net this season while at the back, they have been very porous as they have shipped away 32 goals.

Monaco on the other hand have been very impressive this season and will head into this game in a very fine form. They sit in 3rd position in the Ligue 1 standings and have amassed 47 points this season with just 7 behind league leaders, PSG. In their last 5 games, Monaco have come out unscathed, and have cruised to 4 victories and one draw, showing just how good they are this season. On the attack, they have been very impressive and have scored 51 goals in Ligue 1, while at the back they have remained solid. Going into this game, Monaco will be very confident of their chances of taking something from this game.

Looking at the records have shown that the visitors have the clear advantage in this game. AS Monaco have an impressive record against Bayer Leverkusen and have won three out of the six European games played between the two teams, as opposed to Bayer Leverkusen's paltry one victory. Bayer Leverkusen have won only one of their last nine matches in European competitions and have failed to find the back of the net in six of these games. We are backing the visitors, Monaco, here as we expect them to do enough to avoid a defeat by either securing a victory or by earning a draw.
