A Clash for Form: Where to Watch Bayer Leverkusen vs Wolfsburg?

With the season coming to its business end, it is perform or perish time for both Bayern Leverkusen and Wolfsburg as they lock horns on Saturday afternoon in the Bundesliga. These sides are starving for victories, and a return to form will be most welcome as well. Catch this high-octane encounter through our Bayer Leverkusen vs Wolfsburg TV Channel guide.

In a space of just 10 days, Bayer Leverkusen's top-turvy season fell off a cliff. The Werkself are without a victory in five games as they sit sixth in the Bundesliga table with 46 points. Although the run had encouraging draws to Arsenal and Bayern Munich, the reverse leg defeat to Arsenal and the 3-3 draw to bottom-placed Heidenheim summed up how they have struggled season-long for confidence and form. With Frankfurt and Freiburg in their hot pursuit, another slip-up against Wolfsburg will drag them into a dogfight for the sixth and final European spot. Kasper Hjulmand was relieved as the international came at the right time for them. "The international break came at the right time for us. We've dropped points in matches we controlled, like the draw against Heidenheim.

There are no easy games when teams are fighting for their lives," he added.

The Saturday game could be the last chance for Dieter Hecking to save his job. His Wolfsburg side sits 17th in the table with just 21 points. They are three points adrift of a relegation play-off spot and are five points adrift of outright safety. Without a victory in 10 games, if Hecking's experience could not dig them out of this hole, they might be forced to turn to a fourth manager this season. For a club of Wolfsburg's stature, relegation is a cardinal sin.

With an unrelenting fixture run including games against Bayern Munich, Frankfurt, and Freiburg, and poor away form against them, Die Wolfe have to play by the skin of their teeth. "We are staring relegation in the face, and that requires a specific kind of mental toughness. Leverkusen are the favorites, but they have shown they can be vulnerable at the back. We need to be clinical and take the chances we create," Hecking added.
