Good Attacking Performance
Bayer will be pleased to have a good goal scoring record so far this season (23). This is largely down to the efforts of their stand-out attackers – Moussa Diaby (5), Jeremie Frimpong (5), and Kerem Demirbay (3). Teams that leak goals on a consistent basis, don’t tend to win anything, such is the situation with Bayer so far, having conceded 26 goals in their last fixtures so far.
