Bayer Leverkusen Bundesliga performance

Overview

Bayer Leverkusen entered their 7th round Bundesliga fixture against Hoffenheim at the PreZero Arena following a period of high form. Prior to the match, Leverkusen held 4th place in the standings and maintained a winning streak of five consecutive victories across domestic and European competitions.

On October 16, 2026, Leverkusen secured a 2-1 comeback victory against SC Freiburg. Although Derry Scherhant opened the scoring for Freiburg, Ibrahim Maza equalized for Leverkusen, and Patrik Schick scored the winning goal in the 76th minute. With this goal, Schick became the first Leverkusen player to score in each of the first six matches of a single Bundesliga season.

However, Hoffenheim secured a decisive 3-0 victory on October 25, 2026, ending Leverkusen’s six-match winning streak and marking their first loss in eight matches. The game remained scoreless until the 79th minute, when a VAR decision awarded Hoffenheim a penalty after a foul by Edmond Tapsoba on Fisnik Aslani. Andrej Kramarić converted the penalty, which also marked the club’s 1,000th Bundesliga goal.

All three goals were scored within the final stages of the match. Following the penalty, Alexander Prass scored in the 89th minute but was subsequently sent off after receiving a second yellow card for removing his jersey during his celebration. Max Moerstedt added a third goal in stoppage time to finalize the score. The match was also marked by a heavy collision between Moerstedt and Leverkusen’s Loïc Badé, which required Badé to be carried off the pitch on a stretcher. Additionally, referee Daniel Siebert was replaced during the match due to injury.

With this result, Hoffenheim moved up to 10th place in the standings with nine points, while Leverkusen remained in 4th place with 13 points.
