Wolfsburg vs RB Leipzig Predictions

• Wolfsburg have only failed to score in one of their last eight home games.
• Leipzig have scored eight goals in three games this season.
• Both teams have scored in five of Leipzig’s last seven away games.

Expect goals at the Volkswagen Arena

RB Leipzig slipped to a surprise loss at Mainz in their first Bundesliga outing since Julian Naglesmann’s departure but bounced back with a 4-0 thrashing of Stuttgart last weekend.

New boss Jesse Marsch, who was assistant boss to Ralf Rangnick in the 2018-19 season at Leipzig, has made a few tweaks to the Die Rotten Bullen’s set-up but nothing too drastic and that loss to Mainz was perhaps just a blip rather than a sign of anything more serious.

Wolfsburg have started the season well with two wins in two Bundesliga games but Leipzig will be their biggest test yet.  VfL beat promoted Bochum 1-0 at home in their opener and then won at Hertha Berlin last weekend, but Leipzig can end that winning run on Sunday.

However, Wolfsburg were excellent at home last term and lost just three of their 17 games at the Volkswagen Arena in the league.  All three of those defeats did come in their final four home games, but they faced Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in that run and then lost their final game of the campaign at home to Mainz when they had already locked in a top four finish.

One market that does stand out here is both teams to score as Wolfsburg have only failed to score in one of their last eight home games, while Leipzig have scored eight goals in three games this season and both teams have scored in five of their last seven away fixtures.

Wolfsburg have scored at least two goals in five of their last eight home fixtures, and as Leipzig have been in good scoring form this season too a 2-2 result is my correct score selection.  Wolfsburg striker Wout Weghorst is a contender for an anytime goal, the Dutchman managed 20 Bundesliga goals in 34 games last season, has two in three games in all competitions this term and is his side’s penalty taker.
