On Saturday afternoon, Wolfsburg host RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga, as the visitors look to continue their decent run of form in the German top-flight.

Wolfsburg head into this clash in a poor run of form, as the home side have won just one of their last nine Bundesliga games, including losing four of their last five outings in the German top-flight. Last time out, Wolfsburg suffered a 2-1 defeat at Hannover.

The home side’s poor recent run of form has left the Wolves 12th place in the table, just three points clear of the relegation play-off spots.

Wolfsburg have failed to win in their last five league games on home soil. In fact, the Wolves have won just two of their last 15 Bundesliga matches. Their recent home matches in the German top-flight have been high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in seven of their last eight games.

RB Leipzig are unbeaten in ten league games since an opening weekend defeat at league leaders Dortmund. Ralf Rangnick’s side has also won five of their last seven games in the Bundesliga. Last time out, Leipzig recorded a 3-0 home win over Bayer Leverkusen.

A formidable home record has been the key to RB Leipzig’s recent good league form, as the visitors have kept clean sheets in six of their last seven games, including their last five Bundesliga outings.

Leipzig are unbeaten on their travels in the Bundesliga in four away games, since that aforementioned opening weekend defeat at Dortmund. The visitor’s matches on their travels have been high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven away games.

Forebet predicts that the visitors will record a victory in a low scoring game to at least stay in touch with league leaders Dortmund.
