Match Overview
A big clash is on our hands on Saturday when Bayern Munich take on RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga. While Bayern will feel confident of pulling the game off somehow, Leipzig have the ability to make them feel at unease. With a mere eight points separating the two teams, it will become a big challenge to figure out which team emerges with the three points at the end of the evening.
Key Highlights
There was nothing to separate these two teams when they met earlier in the season in January. They had to settle for a 1-1 draw, and Leipzig will be hoping for much of the same on Saturday as well. Bayern, on the other hand, will desperately seek a win to avoid comparisons with their closest rivals Borussia Dortmund for the title race, which is getting hotter and hotter as the weeks go by.
Injury Report
Peter Gulacsi and Daniel Olmo are the only players of Leipzig who will not be available for selection in this game owing to injuries. Bayern, on the other hand, have a long list of injured players in their ranks which includes the likes of Manuel Neuer, Lucas Hernandez, Alphonso Davies and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting among others.
Prediction
Bayern Munich appear to be the downright favourites to win this game against RB Leipzig. However, they do not have a clear chance to do it. We expect both teams to score in this match. The home team will be boosted by the fact that they have not lost to Leipzig in the last eleven matches that they have played. This will go against RB Leipzig.
