Lech Poznań are scheduled to host Bayer Leverkusen at 23:45 Vietnam time on 15 October in Europa League matchday two, Bongda24h reports. Lech seek their first points after losing 4-0 to Crystal Palace, while Leverkusen beat NK Celje. The fixture remains forthcoming at daytime publication.
Domestic form differs from the European opener
Lech passed three qualifying rounds before entering the competition. They conceded three first-half goals against Palace and lost Radosław Murawski to a second yellow card, leaving him suspended for the next match.
Niels Frederiksen's team subsequently recorded domestic wins of 4-1 against Śląsk and 5-1 against Radomiak Radom. The source cites six successive home victories across competitions, with nineteen goals and four clean sheets. That sample differs from the away defeat in Europe.
Leverkusen began their Bundesliga season with a 3-2 loss to Elversberg, then won four and drew one of the next five games. Their latest cited result is a 4-3 Mainz win featuring four different scorers. The earlier Europa League opener brought a 2-0 victory over Celje.
Availability notes do not confirm selections
Lech are missing injured João Moutinho, Alex Douglas and Ali Gholizadeh alongside suspended Murawski. Leverkusen's listed absentees include Eliesse Ben Seghir, Montrell Culbreath and Guela Doué. Detailed medical claims and predicted starting places are not expanded.
These records explain the original preview's positive assessment of the visitors without guaranteeing victory. The evening's actual result still depends on the match being played.
