German football giants Bayer Leverkusen are on the brink of securing a spot in the Europa League final as they face off against Italian side Roma in the semi-finals.

The unbeaten Bundesliga champions hold a commanding 2-0 lead from the first leg at the Stadio Olimpico, putting them in a prime position to advance.

Managed by Xabi Alonso, Leverkusen’s impressive season has seen them dominate domestically and in European competition.

The first-leg victory in Rome was highlighted by goals from Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich, showcasing Leverkusen’s attacking prowess.

Roma, on the other hand, have struggled recently, managing just one win in their last five matches, making a comeback against Leverkusen a tough task.

Leverkusen’s home record at the BayArena is impeccable, having scored 91 goals in 24 matches this season, setting the stage for a potentially high-scoring encounter.

One of Leverkusen’s standout performers, Florian Wirtz, has been instrumental in their success, with 18 goals and 15 assists to his name this season.

Wirtz’s form has been stellar, finding the net consistently in recent games and posing a significant threat to Roma’s defense.

Roma’s midfielder Leonardo Paredes and Brian Cristante will be key figures in trying to contain Leverkusen’s attacking threat, with Cristante already booked in the first leg.
