On Saturday evening, RB Leipzig and Bayern Munich go head-to-head at the Red Bull Arena in a massive clash at the top of the Bundesliga.
Die Roten Bullen are on an excellent recent run of form in the German top flight, as a 1-0 win at Monchengladbach last time out means that Marco Rose’s team has recorded four straight league wins, having also kept three consecutive clean sheets in the Bundesliga.
Their recent winning streak has contributed to Leipzig’s current position of fourth place in the table, only a point adrift of the visitors, who are in their perennial top spot.
RB Leipzig has an excellent home record in the German top flight, having recorded six straight league wins at the Red Bull Arena.
They have been devastating in attack in those recent home matches, scoring at least two goals in five of their last six home games.
The reigning champions' strong start to the Bundesliga campaign continued last time out, as the Bavarians humiliated Bochum 7-0 at the Allianz Arena, with big summer signing Harry Kane grabbing a hat-trick.
Kane’s presence has only added to Bayern’s already strong attack, as the visitors have now scored at least two goals in all of their five league matches this season.
Unsurprisingly, Bayern have been strong travellers of late in the Bundesliga, recording four straight victories on their travels and winning six of their previous eight away games in the German top-flight.
A key to that recent away run has been Bayern’s attacking prowess, as Thomas Tuchel’s team has now scored at least two goals in all four straight wins.
Forebet predicts that Bayern Munich will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to maintain their position at the top of the Bundesliga.
