Their domestic campaign has started inconsistently with one win, one draw and one defeat, but European football could provide the perfect opportunity to build momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their previous Europa League league-stage record is particularly impressive. Leverkusen won all six group matches during their 2023\/24 campaign, while scoring at least four goals in each of their three home fixtures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their current matches have also been entertaining, with <strong>seven of their last eight competitive games producing over 2.5 goals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Celje arrives in Germany facing a considerably tougher challenge. The Slovenian champions enjoyed an impressive European adventure last season, reaching the UEFA Conference League round of 16, but their domestic title defense has started poorly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With three wins, two draws and three defeats in the Prva Liga, Celje have struggled to rediscover their best form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their defense is the bigger concern ahead of this trip. <strong>Celje have gone seven consecutive away matches without a clean sheet and conceded at least twice in four of those games.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Players: Patrik Schick vs Svit Se\u0161lar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Patrik Schick<\/strong> could be central to Leverkusen&#8217;s chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The striker has scored in each of his first four competitive appearances of the campaign, with his previous three goals all arriving after half-time. Against a Celje defense struggling for clean sheets, Schick should have opportunities to extend that scoring sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Celje will look towards <strong>Svit Se\u0161lar<\/strong>, who has scored three times in five league appearances. His ability to make an impact in European fixtures could be particularly important if Celje are forced to play predominantly on the counterattack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"701\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/tz\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-19-2.jpg\" alt=\"Bayer Leverkusen vs Celje Prediction: UEL Preview and Betting Tips\" class=\"wp-image-13850\" style=\"width:966px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/tz\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-19-2.jpg 701w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/tz\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-19-2-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/tz\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-19-2-149x93.jpg 149w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/tz\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-19-2-299x187.jpg 299w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/tz\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-19-2-323x202.jpg 323w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/tz\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images-19-2-695x434.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo Courtesy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bayer Leverkusen vs Celje Betting Prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everything points to Leverkusen controlling possession and creating most of the chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Celje should not necessarily be dismissed as an attacking threat, however. The Slovenian club has <strong>scored in 13 consecutive competitive away matches<\/strong>, suggesting they possess enough quality to trouble their hosts if Leverkusen becomes careless defensively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The major difference could come at the other end.
