RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munchen: Predictions and Betting Tips

RB Leipzig

After one win and two defeats, Leipzig come into this game in tenth place. These two early defeats have left many doubting Leipzig’s ability to win the Bundesliga this season. The team have been struggling following the loss of some very important players.

Leipzig were the third best home team last season, with only two defeats in 17 matches. They also conceded the fewest goals, with 32 goals in 34 games.

Out of 12 total meetings between the two teams, Leipzig have won only once.

Bayern Munchen

Bayern come into this game on the back of two wins and a draw. The Bavarians are, once again, favourites to win the Bundesliga, and clear favourites at that.

After the departures of two important players, Jerome Boateng and David Alaba, both from the defensive line, Bayern reinforced their squad with the arrival of Dayot Upamecano in defence and Marcel Sabitzer in attack, both from RB Leipzig.

Across the last seven meetings with Leipzig, Bayern have conceded just four goals.

Key Stats:

• Two wins, one draw, and two defeats for Leipzig in their last five games
• Leipzig have only conceded three goals in their last five games
• Four wins and one draw for Bayern in their last five games
• Bayern have scored 24 goals in their last five games

RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munchen Predictions

Although, in theory, Leipzig are the second or third best team in the Bundesliga today (along with Dortmund), the start of the season has not been very good, and they are showing signs of weakness. Against a team of Bayern’s calibre, who have the ability to steamroll weaker teams, Leipzig could really struggle, and so we think Bayern will win this match.
