RB Leipzig Zenit betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This game places very similar teams at a technical level, but RB Leipzig have the great advantage of playing with the support of their fans. Thus, the home club should dominate and enjoy the best chances to score goals, controlling any offensive initiative on the part of the opponent. On the other hand, Zenit St. Petersburg must risk a lot in counterattacks, a transition in which it often creates a lot of danger. It should be noted that the Russians have scored 10 goals in the last 3 games played. That said and given these factors, it is interesting to risk in favor of goals at the end of the 90 '.

Analysis Leipzig

After 1 win and 1 loss, the home team comes to this 3rd round in the 3rd position of Group G, with 3 points won. In the previous round, they lost at home against Olympique Lyonnais by (0‑2), after they have won in their first group stage by (1‑2) in an away match against Benfica. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss in away matches, with 35 goals scored and 16 conceded; against 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 24 goals scored and 26 conceded.

They have conceded the first goal in 4 of their 11 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

RB Leipzig heads into this matchday with a 1-1 draw against Wolfsburg, adding their fourth official game without proving the taste of victory: Timo Werner's only goal was the team's only goal. It is important to remember that the Germans lost 0-2 to Olympique Lyon in the last match of the Champions League group stage. In this match against Zenit St. Petersburg, coach Julian Nagelsmann should keep the team in 4-3-3 favoring the ball circulation and organized attacks, especially through the right: Marcel Sabitzer is very fast and competent in the transport of the ball to the attack. German international Timo Werner is RB Leipzig's top scorer with 8 goals scored. For this match the home coach cannot count on Konaté, Wolf and Schick, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Péter Gulácsi, Nordi Mukiele, Lukas Klostermann, Willi Orbán, Dayot Upamecano, Kevin Kampl, Emil Forsberg, Konrad Laimer, Marcel Sabitzer, Timo Werner, Ademola Lookman.
