RB Leipzig - Wolfsburg predictions

With the 1.68 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for Wolfsburg, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

It’s highly unlikely that Wolfsburg will manage to get some points this round. RB Leipzig are at a considerable advantage, so even a draw would be a success for the visitors.

The narrow 4:3 defeat at Hoffenheim was hardly good news for The Red Bulls, and the missed opportunity to earn some points is sure to hurt their Bundesliga campaign. They seemed to be on the verge of securing an away win as they took the lead in the first half, but misplays in the second half cost them the win.

Wolfsburg are coming on the back of a narrow 1:0 home win against Union Berlin in the previous round of the Bundesliga. The odds were in their favour from the get-go, though, with most online bookmakers pricing a home win at 2.25.

Team from Leipzig’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three Bundesliga matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Wolfsburg have been known to be especially dangerous when playing as visitors. They’ve scored more than 5 times in their previous 3 away games and should be taken into account for those of you who’d like to make a goal-related bet.

The league’s table positions are slowly settling in, and Team from Leipzig find themselves near the top. They are 8 points behind the table leaders, so this game will be a great chance to work towards taking the lead.

The recent history of this matchup reveals a good part of why the hosts are considered the favourites. A quick look at the stats shows a decisive victory over Wolfsburg. The most recent clash between the two squads is from last season, though.

With limited means at their disposal, both teams will have to make do with shortened rosters. We’re referring to the fact both teams suffered strings of injuries, rendering a good chunk of both squads unavailable for this match. El Chadaille Bitshiabu, Yussuf Poulsen, Xaver Schlager, Eljif Elmas, Xavi Simons will not be playing for the hosts, while Niklas Klinger, Kevin Paredes, Lovro Majer, Aster Vranckx, Jakub Kamiński, Bartosz Bialek will be missing on the visiting side.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
