Xabi Alonso is praying for another Leverkusen win

Tobias Gourlay reckons Victor Boniface can fire Bayer Leverkusen to a quick win in the Europa League today


Bayer Leverkusen v Molde
Thursday 17:45 (Live on Discovery+)

In Belgium last night, Antwerp took the consolation prize of a 3-2 win over Barcelona and took our bet down.

It's the final round of group-stage action in the Europa League this evening and we're zooming in on Group H. Leaders Bayer Leverkusen (W5-D0-L0) could make quick work of their game with Molde (W2-D1-L2).

The German outfit are top of the Bundesliga after Bayern's shock recent defeat. Leverkusen are a combined W8-D1-L0 at home in the Bundesliga and Europa League this season.

In this competition, they have so far thrashed Haecken 4-0 and Qarabag 5-1. In all bar one of the eight wins, Xabi Alonso's men have been ahead at half-time.

If Alonso puts out a full-strength team, look for Victor Boniface to fire them to victory. The Nigerian striker has scored in all four Europa League games he has started this term, averaging 4.5 shots across those outings. He's also netted in 3/4 appearances across all competitions recently.

Check the team sheets when they come in, but we're ready to pull the trigger on a Bet Builder that pays out around 2.56/4 if Boniface nets and Bayer are winning at 45 and 90 minutes.
