RB LEIPZIG v INGOLSTADT
Saturday 29th April 2017 – Kickoff: 1530hrs
Football – Germany – Bundesliga Betting Tips
Surprise package in this season’s German Bundesliga, RB Leipzig, can take another big step towards an automatic Champions League spot on Saturday afternoon when they entertain second from bottom outfit Ingolstadt at their Red Bull Arena.
The controversial Leipzig that has roots from the former East Germany have really pushed perennial champions Bayern Munich in this campaign, and although they’re now eight points adrift of the league leaders, they’ve ruffled a few feathers in the upper echelons of German football this term!
Leipzig hold a great home record of 12-1-2 31/11 on home turf this season, and head into this encounter on the back of a five match unbeaten sequence which has seen them register wins over Darmstadt, Mainz, Bayer Leverkusen and Freiburg.
Visitors Ingolstadt face a mountain to climb if they’re to avoid relegation down to the Bundesliga 2 as they sit five points adrift of safety with a very difficult trip to Leipzig ahead of them this afternoon. Their situation looks to be against them as they’ve suffered back-to-back defeats to Wolfsburg and Werder Bremen ahead of this fixture.
Ingolstadt’s away record also hasn’t done them many favours this season with stats of 4-1-10 14/26 overall, while they’ve really struggled on the road away at top half opposition as their record of 1-0-6 6/17 suggests.
Ingolstadt have also managed just two clean sheets away from home all season (at Darmstadt and Frankfurt), but I suspect their defence will be breached here this afternoon as the hosts chase down a Champions League spot.
