RB Leipzig’s stellar campaign to continue against Hertha Berlin

RB Leipzig’s stellar campaign to continue against Hertha Berlin
2787

On Saturday afternoon, RB Leipzig host Hertha Berlin at the Red Bull Arena in the Bundesliga, as the home team look to continue their good start to the campaign.

RB Leipzig are currently top of the Bundesliga table, having won three of their four games in the German top-flight this season, despite some major summer departures including Germany’s rising attacking talent Timo Werner.

Like every top coach does, Leipzig boss Julian Nagelsmann has found a solution to solve a problem like the exit of the highly-rated forward. In this case, it has been to sometimes play without a nominal striker. However, Danish international striker Yussuf Poulsen has also stepped up his game this season too when he has featured.

A 2-0 midweek victory over Istanbul Basaksehir in the Champions League means that Die Roten Bullen have won five of their last six competitive games.

While Leipzig have been relatively prolific of late, scoring at least two goals in their last three matches, they have also managed three straight clean sheets at the other end of the table.

This season could be a big one for Nagelsmann and his team as the young uber-coach looks to enhance his ever-growing reputation.

Hertha Berlin have made a poor start to the new Bundesliga campaign. Things have all gone downhill for Bruno Labbadia’s team since an opening weekend win at Werder Bremen, as the visitors have now suffered three straight losses against Eintracht Frankfurt, Bayern Munich and Stuttgart.

The 2-0 home defeat followed a worrying trend for Hertha, as they conceded another two goals, which brings their tally to nine goals conceded in their last three league outings.

Forebet predicts that RB Leipzig will continue their fine recent form and record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to maintain their place at the Bundesliga summit.
