Bay arena will host today a very interesting UEFA Cup game between Leverkusen a good contender in Bundesliga,sitting currently on four place and Zenit from Sankt Petersburg who didn't start well this new edition in Russian Premier League (three games played wit one win a draw and a defeat,the last :Zenit Petersburg vs Rubin Kazan 1:3 !).
Both teams have made good games at home ground till this stage in UEFA and very probable their secrets to arrive at this stage this should be.
Examples:Bayer won at home against Galata clearly by 5-1 after 0-0 while Zenit made great games in a tipichal athmosphere at their home ground winning against Marseille 2-0 or Villareal 1-0 after defeats away.
So..the home ground is very important for both and for today the hosts will have a clear advantage.Also the past form speak on Bayer favour.About the squads..i don't know but i think that the balance is tie here.
Another interesting thing:the odds are dropping slowly but are dropping for the favourite here.And my favourite remain Leverkusen,at least for the first legg...
