Wolfsburg - RB Leipzig predictions

Though Wolfsburg definitely have a shot at winning this match, they’ll need to work for it. RB Leipzig are somewhat stronger, but the home-field advantage may be what the hosts need to shift the balance in their favour.

From the present perspective, the situation is evident. Considering the strength of Wolfsburg and the fact that RB Leipzig are given 2.53 odds to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a remarkable surprise.

Wolfsburg’s previous Bundesliga clash came down to a single goal making the difference. Wolfsburg held well for the first 45 minutes but did not have enough gas in their tank to push through the entire match. In the end, a narrow Union Berlin home defeat is what they will be looking to bounce back from this Friday.

Team from Leipzig are here on the back of a noted triumph against Hoffenheim. They maintained an impressive lead throughout the match, which lead to a comfortable 3:1 home victory.

The home team is here on the back of two consecutive matches in which fewer than 2 goals were scored in total. That’s not the kind of trend you want to be on, though it does display a kind of consistency.

The Red Bulls and their strikers are well-regarded by experts and bookies alike – they managed to score more than 5 times in their previous 3 home games.

The away team are heading into this match with no clear favourites, but the stakes are quite high. They’re at 5th place in the standings, and the competition is bound to be fierce this late in the season.

RB Leipzig are more likely to win this game despite the issues they’ve had with Wolfsburg earlier in the season. They were the hosts the last time we saw these two teams clash, and yet lost the game to a considerable goal difference.

The home team’s lineup has been severely impacted by an unfortunate string of injuries. Specifically, Sebastiaan Bornauw, Mattias Svanberg, Bartosz Bialek, Mathys Angely, Konstantinos Koulierakis, Denis Vavro are all away due to injury-related reasons. This makes their chances of beating the visiting side even slimmer and should be a major consideration before choosing to bet one way or the other.

The best choice for this fixture is quite easy to figure out – an Under 2.5 Goals bet at the odds of 1. It’s an almost guaranteed win that’s not too bad in the value department either.
