LATE BOOKING
Diaby is cautioned for a late foul on Bensebaini.

AMIRI MAKES IT FOUR!
It's a fourth for Leverkusen but another nightmare for Sommer. A long ball comes from the left to Wirtz on the right of Gladbach's box, and he plays the ball into the middle to match Amiri's run. He volleys at goal and Sommer gets two strong hands on it, but can only parry the ball into his own net.
85'
NEXT HOFMANN CHANCE!
A mistake in defence hands another golden chance to Hofmann for a goal, but his shot goes straight at Hradecky after Wolf had stolen possession from Kossounou. Neuhaus then has a chance shortly
84'
NEXT CHANGE
Fresh legs into midfield as Baumgartlinger comes on for Aranguiz.
83'
HOFMANN HAS A GO
A shot on target for Gladbach as Netz finds Hofmann on the left of the Leverkusen box. He moves onto his right but his shot is a simple save for Hradecky.
81'
DOUBLE CHANGE
It's Florian Wirtz time, the 18-year-old coming on for his first appearance of the season. He replaces Demirbay, while Pohjanpalo is on for Schick.
78'
SO CLOSE AGAIN FOR SCHICK!
Superb again from Leverkusen as Demirbay slots Schick in from the left. He holds off Elvedi as he reaches the Gladbach area but the shot he fires across goal bounces just wide beyond Sommer and the post.
76'
WOLF BOOKED
A second yellow card in the space of a minute here as Wolf is cautioned.
75'
KRAMER BOOKED
A yellow card for Kramer's trouble here.

20 TO GO!
Luck has not been on Gladbach's side at all today but we're into the final 20 minutes now and they look set for defeat.
DIABY DELIGHT!

It's a debut for Andrich here, who replaces Palacios while Amiri is on for Paulinho.

ALMOST FOUR!
Schick hits the post from Frimpong's low cross as Leverkusen come close to a fourth.
64'
DOUBLE CHANGE
The bad luck continues for Gladbach with Plea and Ginter both coming off injured in this second half. That's four injuries today for Leverkusen.
63'
DIZZYING DIABY
Ginter appeared to be complaining of feeling a little dizzy as he leaves the field. With the way Diaby has been running at him and the Gladbach defence this evening, you would not need a qualified doctor to make an accurate diagnosis.
60'
BAYARENA BOUNCING
The atmosphere is truly electric in the BayArena after that third goal has put the hosts firmly in the driving seat. The fans are enjoying the way their team look on the attack too, with their swift breaks ripping the spectators from their seats with regularity.
57'
GLADBACH PUSHING
Gladbach had been pushing to find a way back into this game, but Leverkusen have taken a collective step back in a bid to preserve their lead, reducing the space in which the Foals can forage and looking to hit them on the break, just like they have done with Diaby.
56'
DIABY GOAL!
It took a deflection off the heal of Bensebaini, but Diaby's powerful low drive finds the back of the net. Unstoppable for Yann Sommer at the end of a textbook counterattack from Leverkusen.
48'
EARLY CARD
Paulinho has been cautioned early in the second half.

BACK UNDERWAY!
The ball is rolling again for the second half as we get back underway.

LAINER COMING OFF
The right-back won't be able to continue here as he is being brought down the touchline by physios. A second injury for Hütter's side to deal with.

HRADECKY SAVES!
Superb from Hradecky as he dives the correct way, down low to his left, but it was a poor penalty from Lars Stindl.

A check from VAR has handed Gladbach a golden chance to get back into this game.

LAINER DOWN
The Swiss right-back is down after that challenge from Bakker and taking treatment. Another first-half injury concern for the visitors.
41'
BAKKER BOOKED
He's done well so far, but a rash challenge on Lainer earns him a yellow card.
39'
SO CLOSE FROM SCHICK!
A long ball from the back causes confusion in the Gladbach defence as Ginter and Elvedi get in each other's way to let Schick through. He's one-on-one with Sommer and goes to meg him, but Sommer gets a slight touch on it to put it out of play behind his goal.

WING-PLAY WINNING THE DAY
All of Leverkusen's play is coming down the flanks with wing-backs Frimpong and Bakker having a lot of joy. Whenever Leverkusen have possession, their aim is to find those two out wide.
34'
DEMIRBAY BOOKED
The midfielder stops Gladbach taking a free-kick quickly and goes into the book.
33'
GLADBACH'S STRUGGLES
The Foals have managed three attempts on goal so far and two of them have come from 18-year-old Scally at left-back. Thuram's injury hasn't helped, but Gladbach really struggling to find a way through the Gladbach defence.
29'
BAKKER FLYING
The summer signing from PSG is having a lot of joy at left-back against Lainer. His Bundesliga debut at the BayArena going perfectly so far as his shot went in off Yann Sommer.
25'
SCHICK'S FOAL FAVOURITE
With his goal today, Schick has now scored in each of his three Bundesliga outings against Gladbach.
24'
BACK ON FOR NOW
The Frenchman is back on the pitch and we'll see how he looks as he continues for now.
22'
NOW PLEA IS DOWN
Things are going from bad to worse for Gladbach here as Plea has taken a knock to his right leg. Herrmann is getting ready on the bench in case, but he will look to continue. But for the Foals who are 2-0 down and without Thuram already, this is far from ideal.

SHAKY SOMMER
Sommer dives out of goal to block a cross from Diaby, but only parries the ball loose in front of goal. Schick is lurking and gets to the ball first, but his effort goes wide from close range. A lucky escape for the Swiss shot-stopper.

EARLY CHANGE
Here comes Wolf, who replaces the injured Thuram after just 20 minutes.

KNOCK FOR THURAM
This is not what Adi Hütter will have wanted at all as the French forward is struggling with a knock here. He's just returned from injury, coming on from the bench against Bayern on the opening night. He has ice on his knee and will not continue.
13'
PALACIOS ON FORM
Superb reading of the game from Palacios in midfield to intercept a Gladbach pass and start a counter-attack. His form is why Demirbay is playing further up the pitch.
10'
TIME TO CATCH YOUR BREATHE
It's been a whirlwind opening 10 minutes and Leverkusen are well up for this one. They're matching Gladbach across the pitch, but the Foals have had their opening shot on target from Scally.
8'
LEVERKUSEN FLYING!
It's a second goal inside eight minutes for the hosts to double their lead, and Sommer can do nothing about this one. Diaby dances past Scally on the far side before racing down the flank. He cuts inside onto his left before laying the ball to Schick in the middle, and he turns out before curling the ball into the far bottom corner in style.
6'
FLICK IN THE STANDS
The new Germany head coach Hansi Flick is in the stands this evening, watching some of his potential call-ups for next month's internationals.
3'
BAD LUCK FOR SOMMER!
What a terrible way to go behind for Gladbach, but Leverkusen don't mind at all. It's Bakker who is afforded space to shoot from just outside the area and goes for the far bottom corner. Sommer is stranded as he watches it bounce off the post and toward him, but can't react quickly enough as the ball hits him and goes back over the line.

MOMENT'S SILENCE
As with every game across Germany this weekend, a moment's silence will now be held in memory of Gerd Müller who passed away last Sunday.
KICK-OFF COMING UP
We're less than 10 minutes from getting underway on this Saturday evening for a game that has been full of goals, drama and talent from both sides.
STINDL TO STRIKE AGAIN?
Stindl has scored (two), assisted (three) or both in his last three Bundesliga appearances in a row. He grabbed a brace in last season's corresponding fixture - a 4-3 defeat.

WELCOME TO YOUR NEW HOME, ROBERT
GOALS GALORE!
This fixture has witnessed 261 goals in 78 Bundesliga meetings at an average of 3.3 per game, with at least one in the previous 32. We don't want to jinx it, but we're expecting more of the same with the attacking firepower on show this evening.
SCHICK TO FIND SUMMER FORM
Patrik Schick settled matters when the two sides last met on 6 March, but has found the net just twice since and is currently eight Bundesliga matches without a goal. He was the joint-top scorer in the summer's Euros with five goals for the Czech Republic, and will be looking to bring his form with him into the new season.
LEVERKUSEN TEAM NEWS
Teenage sensation Wirtz has missed both competitive fixtures of this season with a groin injury, but he's back on the bench here. Right-back Frimpong misses out after pulling up during the week, while the club has been busy in the transfer market and signed midfielder Andrich from Union and teenage Ecuadorian defender Hincapie, but neither are included in the squad here.
GLADBACH TEAM NEWS
American Joe Scally was superb on debut last weekend playing on his unfavoured side at left-back. So much so that he's set to keep his place in the team even with Bensebaini back in the squad after three months out with a thigh injury. New head coach Adi Hütter - whose successor at Swiss club Young Boys was Seoane - has brought back Thuram and Hofmann into the starting line-up alongside captain Stindl and Plea, with Herrmann and Wolf dropping to the bench. Zakaria's lack of match sharpness means Kramer and Neuhaus continue in midfield.

HEAD-TO-HEAD
Leverkusen have won all three of the teams' most recent encounters, the latest of which was a 1-0 away triumph in March earlier this year. Overall, Bayer have taken maximum points from 30 of the 78 Bundesliga meetings to date, with Gladbach winning 22 (26 draws). However, the Foals have won three of their last five visits to the BayArena.
FORM - LEVERKUSEN
There's also a new face in the Leverkusen hot seat in Gerardo Seoane. His side likewise eased into the second round of the DFB Cup with a 3-0 win at Lokomotiv Leipzig, and they picked up a 1-1 draw away to Union Berlin last weekend, Moussa Diaby scoring a superb solo goal to cancel out the home team's opener. With the Bender twins, Lars and Sven, and Leon Bailey all leaving over the summer, it's something of a new-look Werkself team this term.

FORM - GLADBACH
The Foals come into this game in positive mood, having beaten Kaiserslautern 1-0 in the first round of the DFB Cup a couple of weeks ago, before holding Bayern Munich to a 1-1 draw in the Bundesliga curtain-raiser on Matchday 1. New head coach Adi Hütter has his side well drilled, with Lars Stindl looking sharp: the 32-year-old scored in the cup and provided the assist for Alassane Plea against Bayern. Check out highlights of that game below.
