RB Leipzig Preview – Can Leipzig grind on?
Although the break in the Bundesliga season may have caused disruption to many other teams, not so for Leipzig who have seemingly rolled on regardless as the hosts have extended their unbeaten run in the Bundesliga from six matches prior to the lockdown, to 12 matches without defeat thereafter.
Post-lockdown wins against Mainz 5-0, Cologne 4-2 and Hoffenheim 2-0, all away from home, have helped maintain RB Leipzig’s claims for a top four finish and the promise of Champions League football next season, and they hold a six-point cushion over 5th placed ‘Gladbach prior to these midweek fixtures.
Any slim hopes of RB Leipzig making a serious challenge for the Bundesliga title though have been dashed in recent times as they’ve been held to four draws on the trot by Bayer Leverkusen, Freiburg, Hertha Berlin and Paderborn respectively, which steers us towards the goals markets; 10 of Leipzig’s 15 home matches have seen over 2.5 goals.
Fortuna Dusseldorf Preview – Can Dusseldorf move out of bottom three?
Recent results suggest not as Fortuna Dusseldorf have been handed defeats by Bayern Munich 5-0 away and a 1-0 loss at home to Borussia Dortmund which have meant that Fortuna Dusseldorf remain in the relegation play-off spot, and they face another tough fixture on Wednesday night away at a solid looking RB Leipzig outfit.
Indeed, with just one win out of their last eight matches overall in the German top flight, which came in the shape of a 2-1 home win over mid-table outfit, Schalke, the odds seem fairly stacked against Dusseldorf in this match-up with Leipzig.
The story doesn’t get any better when looking at results away from home either as Dusseldorf have captured just one win from their previous 14 outings on the road, so an away win here would seem highly unlikely; however, goals have featured on a regular basis with 10 of Dusseldorf’s 15 away matches resulting in over 2.5 goals.
