Aiming to make a big impact in the Champions League after last season's record-breaking achievements, Bayer Leverkusen take on Feyenoord tonight. The German champions meet last season's Eredivisie runners-up in their league opener, with a typically electric atmosphere expected at De Kuip.

The 1-0 loss at the "Stadio Olimpico" remains the only loss of the German team in the last 11 European matches as a guest, a period that also includes seven victories, reports KosovaPress.

After all, they are aiming to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League for the first time since 2017, while they will be under the guidance of Granit Xhaka in midfield.

The Swiss representative is expected to start the match from the first minute. These are the possible formations:

Feyenoord: Wellenreuther; Lotomba, Beelen, Hancko, Smal; Timber, Zechiel; Nieuëkoop, Nadje, Paixao; Gimenez

Bayer Leverkusen: Kovar; Tapsoba, Tah, Hincapie; Frimpong, Andrich, Xhaka, Grimaldo; Terrier, Wirtz; Boniface
