If Leverkusen remains in Europe this season, they must improve Atletico’s results against Porto in their final Champions League game on Tuesday.
Leverkusen’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League knockout rounds after a 2-2 draw at Atletico Madrid last week, with both teams exiting the competition in dramatic circumstances.
Meanwhile, Club Brugge knows that last week’s 4-0 home defeat to Sergio Conceicao’s side lost to Porto.
The Belgian Serie A champions have secured promotion to the last 16 after amassing an impressive 10 points from their opening four games. On a day of riots in Porto, they may have faced a more motivated team than they were. Book your spot with your opponent in the knockout stage.
However, things could have been very different had Noalom converted his penalty in the 51st minute after a foul by David Carmo, with the visitors subtly 1-0 as the game went on. Balance.
In the end, despite a tight scoreline, Club Brugge’s place in the next stage is secured, but they must win at Bayer Leverkusen to secure the top spot.
With Genk leading the Belgian Serie A by eight points, the Champions League represents manager Karl Hofkens’ best chance for a historical legacy from this season, albeit in some ways having passed them on in the competition so far.
There are likely to be plenty of goals at Leverkusen on Tuesday, and while there is still a loose finish in Group B, neither side is expected to have much momentum.
A lot depends on the outcome of the other game in the group, but we can imagine sharing the spoils, which may only be good for one team of the night.
