RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Predictions
- Five of Liverpool’s last seven games have featured over 2.5 goals
- Both of Leipzig’s Champions League games this term have featured over 2.5 goals and seen both teams score
- Leipzig have lost just one of their last five fixtures
- Lois Openda has scored five times in all competitions this season
Leipzig and Liverpool look to build on fine form
Two teams in red-hot domestic form clash when Leipzig host Liverpool in the Champions League on Wednesday and it could be a cracker.
Liverpool boosted their title hopes with a 2-1 win over Chelsea on Sunday, meaning they remain a point clear of Manchester City at the Premier League summit.
That was the club’s seventh straight win in all competitions and they have excelled since Arne Slot took charge in the summer.
Leipzig have also been in formidable form, though, having collected 17 points from a possible 21 in the Bundesliga this season.
They are level on points with juggernauts Bayern Munich and remain unbeaten in Germany’s top flight, having won five of their opening seven league contests.
End-to-end contest expected at Red Bull Arena
Marco Rose’s men kept their good start going with a 2-0 win over Mainz in the league on Saturday but they have struggled to carry their domestic form into the Champions League, losing both of their matches.
But they put in valiant performances in both their 2-1 loss to Atletico Madrid and 3-2 defeat to Juventus and, regardless of the result on Wednesday, Leipzig are unlikely to go down without a fight in front of their own fans.
The Red Bulls have their best players deployed in attacking positions with Lois Openda, Benjamin Sesko and Xavi Simons forming a front three and there is a top-heavy nature to the team.
And while their back three are no pushovers, they could be tested by free-flowing Liverpool.
Openda can find net in high-octane encounter
Liverpool found themselves behind after three minutes in their first Champions League game of the season against Milan and Leipzig will make it a fearsome atmosphere from the start for the Reds, so punters might not want to rush to back them.
Slot’s side have been great entertainers this season and this could be a high-scoring fixture with both teams to score and over 2.5 goals the appropriate bet.
That is a selection which has clicked in both of Leipzig’s league assignments against Juventus and Atletico Madrid this term but it also won in three of Liverpool’s last five games in all competitions.
On matchday two in the Champions League, Leipzig peppered the Juventus goal with 24 shots and they are a hard side to contain, especially on their own patch, so punters should anticipate a lively contest at the Red Bull Arena.
