No “home advantage” in current Bundesliga says Bosz

Bayer Leverkusen manager, Peter Bosz says home advantage no longer exists in Germany’s Bundesliga, with matches now played inside virtually empty stadiums.
Matches in Germany’s top flight are currently being played behind closed doors following a resumption of action after a break occasioned by the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.
Only three out of the 18 played in the last two round of games have ended in victories for the home sides, with Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and Hertha Berlin emerging as the only sides to have won a home fixture over the past fortnight.
Bosz was quick to cite the absence of supporters as a likely factor in the rather unusual trend of results.
“I don’t think that’s a coincidence,” Bosz told the Bayer Leverkusen official website.
“It’s easier for the away teams when there are no fans in the stadium. Without spectators, it comes down more to the quality of players on the teams,” he said
Wolfsburg will be Tuesday’s opposition for Leverkusen, who have won six of their past seven games to surge to fourth in the table.
Bosz is up for the challenge and predicts a tough day in the office.
“Against Wolfsburg it will be tough again – we have to give 100 percent over 90 minutes and absolutely win the game,” he said.
