On Saturday afternoon, RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt clash at the Red Bull Arena in a potentially massive game at the top of the Bundesliga.
Die Roten Bullen returned to winning ways last time out in the Bundesliga, as Marco Rose’s team recorded an impressive 3-0 win at Wolfsburg after two winless games in the German top-flight.

The victory means that Leipzig has now won seven of their previous ten matches in the Bundesliga. They are also just a point off the Champions League spots in the German top flight.
RB Leipzig has a stellar recent home record in the Bundesliga at the Red Bull Arena, having won seven of their previous nine home games in the German top flight.
A 2-1 home defeat against Union Berlin in their last league outing on home soil ended a ten-game unbeaten run for Die Roten Bullen in the Bundesliga on home soil.
The Eagles head into this game just a place and point below their hosts in the Bundesliga. Oliver Glasner’s team got back to winning ways in the league after a 3-0 defeat against Koln last time out by recording a 2-0 win over Werder Bremen.
The win keeps the visitors right in the race for a Champions League spot and maybe even the Bundesliga title.
Eintracht Frankfurt’s away form has been mixed of late, as the Eagles have failed to win in four away games in the Bundesliga. However, the 3-0 defeat at Koln ended a five-game unbeaten run on their travels for Frankfurt.
The Koln game broke a trend, as both teams had scored in Eintracht’s previous five away games in the Bundesliga.
Forebet predicts that these two teams will produce a high-scoring draw, which will do little to further either team’s chances of a top-four finish in the Bundesliga.
