Game Prediction
On Thursday, the Champions League traditionally passes the baton to other, less prestigious tournaments, including the Europa League. However, even in the Europa League, there are interesting matchups. One such clash to watch is between Bayer's young and promising manager, Javi Alonso, and the more experienced David Moyes of West Ham. Who will achieve success here? A prediction for this match on April 11, 2024, is available to the readers of the website.
Bayer can focus on the triumphant season's final weeks in European competitions
"The Aspirins" are having arguably their best season in history, which culminated in winning the Europa Conference League trophy, with Javi Alonso becoming the first manager to bring it to Leverkusen. They secured this trophy convincingly ahead of schedule, allowing them to channel all their energy and confidence into the Europa League. In March, the Germans surprised their fans (whose numbers have clearly increased during the 2023/2024 season), losing twice to Qarabag. However, they managed to draw the match in Baku and clinched a dramatic victory at home in regular time.
West Ham performs well in international tournaments
"The Hammers" confirmed their long-standing ambitions by winning the Europa Conference League in 2023. While it may not be the most prestigious of all European competitions, their last trophy before that, excluding a 1999 Intertoto Cup win, was the FA Cup in 1980. The team is currently striving to perform at their best. They are also contenders for the 6th or 7th place in the Premier League. In the Europa League, they topped their group, even beating Freiburg for the top spot. Meeting the Germans again in March for the round of 16, the English side didn't falter after a narrow defeat in Germany, instead, they dominated their opponent at home.
Previous encounters: Last summer, the clubs met for the first time on the field in a friendly match, and Bayer thrashed West Ham 4-0.
