With two games to play, three points would see Leverkusen return to the Champions League. "Of course, our situation is good," declared the Swiss coach at the pre-match press conference on Friday afternoon. "But we're definitely not in the mood for a party. The team has been very focused this week and are looking to pick up the next win tomorrow."
The lead over fifth place is currently four points – also due to the convincing wins at SpVgg Greuther Fürth (4-1) as well as the 2-0 victory over Europa League finalists Eintracht Frankfurt. Seoane continued: "The team have recently done a lot right. Now we want to take the next step and seal qualification for the Champions League against Hoffenheim."
Good news:, In the match against Hoffenheim, where 1,500 Leverkusen fans will be at the game, the 43-year-old coach can call on the same line-up as in the home match against Frankfurt on Monday night. Seoane paid specific praise to winter signing Sardar Azmoun: "Sardar has developed really well and added a physical approach in recent weeks. Although he fulfils the number 10 role differently from Flo (Florian Wirtz, ed.), he has the ability for this role."
There is a question mark over midfielder Kerem Demirbay, who missed the Frankfurt game due to a toe injury, ahead of the final training session this afternoon.
The Werkself head to Hoffenheim keen to score goals: With 37 goals on the road this season Bayer 04 have equalled their previous best in the top-flight (37 in 2018/19). Only Bayern Munich have scored more in the current season in the Bundesliga.
TSG have not won in their last four league home games at the PreZeroArena (two draws, two defeats). Nevertheless, Seoane sees a major challenge against the team under his fellow coach Sebastian Hoeneß. The team in eighth place have a "very proactive and offensive style of play. Both teams have their targets in sight and want to impose their style of play on the opponents. It will be an equally balanced encounter."
