Bayer Leverkusen vs BK Hacken match preview
One of the more one-sided fixtures of the Europa League group stage’s opening round is set to play out at the BayArena, in Germany.
This comes as high-flying Bundesliga outfit Bayer Leverkusen prepare to play host to European minnows Hacken.
Beginning with the former, Bayer, for those not aware, have enjoyed a stellar start to the new campaign.
Sitting pretty alongside joint-top of the Bundesliga table, Xabi Alonso’s troops have rattled off three wins and a draw from four, finding the net on 13 occasions along the way.
Not only that, but, this past weekend, Die Werkself confirmed their title credentials, in emerging from a crunch top-of-the-table showdown with champions Bayern Munich with a share of the spoils.
After Harry Kane and Leon Goretzka guided Bayern into a 2-1 advantage at the Allianz Arena, Exequiel Palacios struck deep into injury time, to ensure that the points were shared.

The Swedish outfit, for their part, currently sit 3rd in the Allsvenskan, trailing leaders Malmo by just two points.
Most recently, the Gothenburg-based club bounced back from a costly defeat at the hands of Degerfors, to put Halmstad to the sword by three goals to two.
On the continent, meanwhile, Hacken battled their way through no fewer than four qualifying rounds to book their spot in the group stage of the Europa League.
Scottish outfit Aberdeen proved the latest victims of Per-Mathias Høgmo’s side, who followed up a 2-2 first-leg stalemate with an impressive 3-1 triumph at Pittodrie.
And yet, despite such impressive efforts, we at 101 find it difficult to see past anything other than a comfortable victory for hosts Leverkusen come the full-time whistle in North Rhine-Westphalia on Thursday night.
