Leverkusen will face Hoffenheim in their opening match of the season, and I think that's a match Leverkusen should be able to win easily. On paper, Leverkusen is the clear favorite, Hoffenheim is a mediocre team that almost got relegated last season. Therefore, I think this is a great opportunity for Ten Hag to secure his first win, which would help him gain a lot of support from the fans at BayArena. However, if an upset were to happen, Ten Hag would immediately face sharp criticism from the fans.
Leverkusen is going to have their first match of this season with Hoffenheim. And the Leverkusen side is heavier than Hoffenheim. And i think it is the best chance for Eric Ten Hag to get some positive attention from the audience. He needs to make leverkusen win but not only win they should win with heavy margins. Because in this regard Eric Ten Hag will receive motivation from the team from the supporters and from himself too. Which really helps him to get rid of what he did in manchester united and the destroyed image of him. As the Opponent is not much strong and they are very easy to defeat. But if he failed to make a win this time this will be very drastic for the Eric Ten Hag. And i personally think if he does not do the same his career does not seem good or in fact it may face an end.
