RB Leipzig vs Greuther Furth Predictions

  • RB Leipzig have won three of their four home Bundesliga games this season.
  • Greuther Fürth have lost their last six Bundesliga matches in a row
  • At least three goals have been scored in each of Leipzig’s last six home games.
  • At least three goals have been scored in each of Greuther Fürth’s last five away games.

Cloverleaves on course for unwanted records

Greuther Fürth are in danger of breaking some unwanted record this season as another pointless weekend beckons for the Bundesliga’s bottom club when they travel to face RB Leipzig.

The last time they were relegated, in 2012-13, the Cloverleaves finished bottom with 21 points, but even that paltry tally looks a long way off now as they sit with just a solitary point from their opening eight fixtures.

With almost a quarter of the campaign gone, Stefan Leitl’s side are on course to equal their league-worst record of just four home points and potentially break Tasmania Berlin’s record of ten points in a season, which has existed since the 60s.

Like their last relegation season, Greuther Fürth aren’t scoring enough – with only five to show so far in a Bundesliga that has averaged over three per game for the past three seasons. Their 16-goal top scorer from last season, Branimir Hrgota, has managed just two so far and is getting little help from recent signing Cedric Itten (one).

Red Bulls bully lesser opponents at home

RB Leipzig have tended to get their goals from midfielders this season, but still have reliable Bundesliga forwards Yussuf Poulsen and Andre Silva to lead the line. And with few injuries to speak of at the moment, we would expect Jesse Marsch’s side to win this game comfortably.

The Red Bulls have lost only three home Bundesliga games in 2021, two to Bayern Munich and one to Borussia Dortmund, and dropped points only once to a team outside the top five during that spell.

The statistics suggests a home win with at least three goals scored is worth a wager, given the hosts’ last six at Red Bull Arena have featured plenty of goals – as have all five of Greuther Fürth’s away fixtures in 2021-22.

Our correct score selection of 3-0 to the hosts reflects their proven dominance over lesser Bundesliga sides in 2021 where they have averaged 2.2 goals scored and 0.3 conceded in ten outings.
