Leverkusen is currently the undisputed Bundesliga leader, with many of its key players drawing attention from larger and financially more powerful clubs. There's also speculation about Xabi Alonso's future beyond this season, and paradoxically, winning the championship could increase the likelihood of him seeking a new challenge.Despite these off-pitch concerns, Bayer Leverkusen has performed exceptionally well on the field. They are aiming for a record of not losing in 33 consecutive cross-competition competitive games, which is currently tied with Flick-Bayern from the 2019/20 season. Interesting info-Leverkusen faces Mainz on Friday, hoping to break the "Friday curse" that has seen them unable to win any of their last six Bundesliga matches on Friday evening. One interesting statistical oddity is that Leverkusen has scored in both halves of their last three Bundesliga games. On the other side, Mainz, under coach Henriksen, started well with a crucial 1-0 home win against Augsburg. However, they are still in relegation trouble and need to step up their game, especially in away matches where they have struggled this season. Mainz has not won in their last 15 Bundesliga away games. Mainz's tactical formation might be questioned in this away game, especially against Leverkusen's strong and dynamic center.Leverkusen is the clear favorite, but creative betting approaches, such as those based on Leverkusen's goal-scoring patterns or Mainz's away struggles, could offer value in this fixture. Therefore, bet falls on Bayer Leverkusen to cover -1.5 handicap and maybe win big.

勒沃库森目前是德甲无可争议的领头羊，它的许多关键球员吸引了更大、更有财力的俱乐部的注意。还有关于哈维·阿隆索在本赛季之后的未来的猜测，矛盾的是，赢得冠军可能会增加他寻求新挑战的可能性。尽管有这些场外的担忧，勒沃库森在球场上的表现却异常出色。他们的目标是在交叉竞技比赛中连续33场不输，这一纪录目前与弗利克-拜仁从2019/20赛季开始持平。有趣的消息:勒沃库森将在周五对阵美因茨，希望打破“周五诅咒”，因为他们在周五晚上的德甲联赛中六场比赛都没有获胜。一个有趣的统计数据是勒沃库森在最近三场德甲比赛的两个半场都有进球。另一方面，在亨里克森教练的带领下，美因茨队开局良好，主场1-0战胜奥格斯堡。然而，他们仍然有降级的麻烦，需要加强他们的比赛，特别是在客场比赛中，他们本赛季一直在努力。美因茨在最近的15场德甲客场比赛中没有获胜。美因茨的战术阵型可能会在这场客场比赛中受到质疑，尤其是面对勒沃库森强大而充满活力的中锋。勒沃库森显然是最受欢迎的，但创造性的投注方式，比如基于勒沃库森的进球模式或美因茨的客场挣扎，可能会在这场比赛中提供价值。因此，赌注落在勒沃库森，以覆盖-1.5的障碍，可能会赢得大。
