RB Leipzig to Win

Reason for tip

RB Leipzig have been one of the Bundesliga’s stronger away sides this season and arrive in much better shape than Cologne. They sit five places and 13 points clear, have scored in eight straight league games, and have found the net in 18 of their last 19 overall. Cologne continue to look fragile defensively, especially at home, where clean sheets have been rare. Leipzig’s strong recent head-to-head record only adds to the case for an away win.

RB Leipzig 2-1

Reason for tip

A narrow Leipzig win makes sense. Cologne usually manage to get on the scoresheet at home, but their defensive record suggests they struggle to hold leads or protect tight games. Leipzig have seen both teams score in five of their last seven Bundesliga matches and tend to control games without running away with them. With Leipzig’s attacking consistency and Cologne’s defensive issues, a 2-1 away victory looks the most likely outcome.

Leipzig look set to strike again on the road at Cologne

Leipzig are enjoying a good campaign away from home and they look the best bet to get another win at Cologne on Sunday.

They are fifth in the Bundesliga, five places and 13 points above Cologne, with 11 wins, three draws and six losses from their 20 games this season. The hosts sit tenth, having won six, drawn five and lost nine.

The visitors will be confident of finding the net, with Leipzig having scored in eight successive Bundesliga games and in 18 of their last 19 league matches.

The home side have looked vulnerable at the back. Cologne have failed to keep a clean sheet in 17 of their last 20 Bundesliga home games.

Leipzig have lost on just one of their last seven Bundesliga visits to Cologne and have only suffered one defeat in the last ten head-to-heads with them.

With both teams having scored in five of Leipzig’s last seven Bundesliga games, a 2-1 away win for Leipzig looks like a decent correct-score bet.
