RB Leipzig to continue good form against Koln
2337

RB Leipzig are one of the genuine contenders to win the Bundesliga this season. Julian Nagelsmann’s team are currently second in the table, four points behind leaders Monchengladbach in the race for the title ahead of hosting Koln on Saturday evening.

After a slight dip in form in October, Die Roten Bull look to be back on track in the Bundesliga, having beaten Mainz and Hertha Berlin in their last two league outings. A return to form of Germany international Timo Werner has helped the home sides recent results, as Werner has scored five goals in his last two league appearances for Leipzig.

Unsurprising considering the style of play that Nagelsmann prefers, RB Leipzig’s recent Bundesliga matches have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven outings.

Leipzig have not been in great form at the Red Bull Arena of late, but the 8-0 mauling of Mainz in their last match on home soil ended a three-game winless run.

Bundesliga meetings between these two sides have actually been very close, as the pair have met on just four occasions in the German top-flight, with RB Leipzig winning twice, Koln winning once and the other game finishing all-square.

Koln have struggled for results on their return to the Bundesliga. The visitors are currently 17th place, three points from the safety of 15th place.

The visitors have won just twice this season against Freiburg and Paderborn. They head into this clash on the back of three straight league defeats. A 2-1 defeat last time out against Hoffenheim also means they have conceded at least two goals in their last three league outings.

Koln also have a poor away record of late in the German top-flight, as they have failed to win in their last four matches on their travels, suffering three defeats in the process.

Forebet predicts that RB Leipzig will record a victory in a high-scoring clash to add to Koln’s woes and boost the home sides chances of claiming top spot in the near future.
