RB Leipzig to boost title hopes against Werder
RB Leipzig vs Werder Bremen - 15/02/2020
3060
On Saturday afternoon, RB Leipzig host Werder Bremen at the Red Bull Arena, in what could be a massive game at both ends of the Bundesliga table.
The home side drew 0-0 at reigning champions Bayern Munich last time out. In truth, both sides had chances to win the vital clash, but in the end surprisingly neither were clinical enough in front of goal.
The draw at the Allianz Arena keeps Die Roten Bullen second place in the Bundesliga table, just a point behind Bavarian giants Bayern.
Julian Nagelsmann’s team needs to get back to winning ways to maintain their title bid, as Leipzig have now failed to win in their last three games in the German top-flight. A struggling Werder seems like the perfect opponents for Leipzig to face when in need of a win.
Despite their recent unconvincing run of form in the German top-flight, Leipzig still has a respectable recent home record in the Bundesliga. The home team are unbeaten in seven games on home soil in the German top-flight, having recorded five wins and two draws.
Werder Bremen are in dire need of a victory, as they look to move out of the relegation zone. Florian Kohfeldt’s team are four points from the safety of 15th place, although they are only behind 16th place Fortuna Dusseldorf by virtue of an inferior goal difference.
A 2-0 home defeat by Union Berlin last time out in the Bundesliga means that the visitors have now suffered defeat in seven of their last eight outings in the German top-flight.
Considering their position in the table it is unsurprising that Werder have been travel sick of late in the Bundesliga, winning just two of their last nine away games.
Forebet predicts that Leipzig will get back to winning ways in emphatic style to aid their title bid and dent Werder’s survival hopes at the same time.
