Bayer Leverkusen, looking to build on their record-breaking achievements from last season, will face Feyenoord on Thursday evening in the Champions League.

Feyenoord, crowned Dutch champions for the 16th time in 2023, finished second to PSV Eindhoven last season, even though their final points tally was two points higher than when they won the title the year before.
