On Wednesday night, RB Leipzig take their Bundesliga title challenge to Hoffenheim, as Julian Nagelsmann’s team looks to move to the summit of the German top-flight table.
Hoffenheim are not in the greatest of shape to pull off a surprise in this clash, as the home team has won just one of their previous nine matches in the Bundesliga.
A 4-1 hammering at surprise league leaders Bayer Leverkusen means that Sebastian Hoeness’ team has won just once in their last nine league outings.
The defeat against Bayer ended a potentially promising run, as they headed into the clash on a three-game unbeaten streak in the German top-flight.
While the results may not have gone the home sides way of late, at least their games have offered good value when it has come to goals, as there have been over 2.5 goals scored in five of their previous six Bundesliga outings.
RB Leipzig are once again looking like potential challengers for the Bundesliga title. Julian Nagelsmann’s team are third-place in the German top-flight table, just a point behind Bayer Leverkusen.
A 2-0 home win over Werder Bremen made the visitors unbeaten in their last five matches in the German top-flight. The match also saw Die Roten Bullen score at least two goals for the fourth time in five league outings.
One facet of the visitors game that needs to improve if they are to win the German title is their away form, as Leipzig have won just one of their last five league games on their travels.
Rather unusually for Nagelsmann’s team their recent away matches in the Bundesliga have been low-scoring with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five away games.
Forebet predicts that RB Leipzig will continue their title charge by recording a victory in a high-scoring clash.
