After record successes last season, Bayer Leverkusen aims to make a strong impression in the Champions League, and the first step towards that is the game against Feyenoord. After winning the Dutch league title in 2023 for the 16th time, Feyenoord finished second to PSV Eindhoven last season, although they collected two more points than when they won the title the year before. The club from Rotterdam won the cup as a consolation, but coach Arne Slot left for Liverpool, and new manager Brian Priske came from Sparta Prague. The difference and problems in the game are already noticeable. After 4 rounds, they have 1 win and 3 draws and are already 9 points behind the leader PSV, which is too much in a league like the Netherlands. With this form, the game against Leverkusen could not have come at a worse time. In addition to form, the quality of the teams is also very important, as well as the league itself, which we could see in the duel between Juventus and PSV. Juventus, which has certain difficulties in the league, defeated PSV 3-0 without major problems, and PSV has been more than dominant since the start of the season in Holland. As for Leverkusen, they continued to play as they did last season. The most important players, as well as the coach, remained in the team, and the team was additionally strengthened by the arrivals of Terrier, Aleix Garcia and Mukiele, among others. About 20 days ago, they suffered their first defeat after 35 games in a row in the domestic championship. It happened rather unexpectedly, on the home field against Leipzig. But what followed after that best shows the mentality of this team. They visited Hoffenheim and more than certainly defeated them 4-1. Leverkusen arrives in Rotterdam without major injury problems, and Xabi Alonso will have all key players at his disposal. Both teams have a wealth of experience at different levels of UEFA competitions, so they will be ready to provide an exciting spectacle on the first day of the Champions League group stage. However, individual quality, current form and the depth of the bench are just some of the factors that indicate that Leverkusen will not have too many problems to achieve victory in this match.

在上赛季取得了创纪录的成功之后，勒沃库森的目标是在冠军联赛中给人留下深刻的印象，而迈向这个目标的第一步就是对阵费耶诺德的比赛。费耶诺德在2023年第16次获得荷兰联赛冠军后，虽然比前一年的冠军多拿到了2分，但上赛季仅排在埃因霍温之后，排名第二。来自鹿特丹的俱乐部赢得了奖杯作为安慰，但教练阿恩·斯洛特去了利物浦，新教练布莱恩·普里斯克来自布拉格斯巴达。游戏中的差异和问题已经显而易见。4轮过后，他们取得了1胜3平的战绩，已经落后领头羊埃因霍温9分，这在像荷兰队这样的联赛中实在是太多了。在这样的状态下，对阵勒沃库森的比赛再糟糕不过了。除了状态之外，球队的实力和联赛本身也很重要，我们可以从尤文图斯和埃因霍温的对决中看到这一点。在联赛中遇到一定困难的尤文图斯，在没有重大问题的情况下3-0击败了埃因霍温，而埃因霍温自本赛季在荷兰开始以来就一直占据着统治地位。至于勒沃库森，他们继续着上赛季的打法。最重要的球员和教练都留在了球队，球队还因为特里耶、亚历克斯·加西亚和穆基莱等人的到来而得到了加强。大约20天前，他们在国内联赛中遭遇了连续35场比赛后的首次失利。在主场对阵莱比锡的比赛中，这种情况出人意料地发生了。但接下来的事情最好地展示了这支球队的心态。他们做客霍芬海姆，并以4比1击败了他们。勒沃库森抵达鹿特丹时没有严重的伤病问题，阿隆索将拥有所有关键球员。两支球队在不同级别的欧足联比赛中都有丰富的经验，所以他们将准备在欧冠小组赛的第一天提供一个令人兴奋的场面。然而，个人素质，目前的状态和板凳深度只是一些因素，表明勒沃库森不会有太多的问题，在这场比赛中取得胜利。
