Leverkusen To Go 10 Points Clear After Bayern Drop Points

Victor Boniface and Nathan Tella’s Bayer Leverkusen could go 10 points clear over Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga this weekend.

Bayern Bundesliga title hopes took yet another significant blow as they were forced to a 2-2 draw by Freiburg on Friday night.

The struggling champions fell behind on Friday night but turned things around through goals from Mathys Tel and Jamal Musiala, as they looked set to battle to a narrow win.

But in the 87th minute Lucas Holer equalised for Freiburg to force the draw.

The draw saw Bayern extend a dismal run that has seen them win just one of their last five matches in all competitions.

Bayer Leverkusen, unbeaten this season, remain seven points clear at the top of the table, and have the chance to extend that advantage to 10 points on Sunday when they face Cologne.

Bayern have won 11 Bundesliga titles in a row, while Leverkusen are targeting a first in their history.

Harry Kane sits comfortably clear at the top of the Bundesliga goalscoring charts, with 27 goals, at least nine more goals than any other players has managed.

Meanwhile, Boniface is yet to return to action as he is still recovering from injury.
