Liverpool vs RB Leipzig Prediction & Betting tips
Part two of one of the most organisationally remarkable European diptychs of recent years will be completed on Wednesday. Once again, the Puskas Arena in Budapest is the setting for the match between Liverpool and RB Leipzig. The British defend a 0-2 lead.
Liverpool:
Liverpool FC did good business three weeks ago in the first leg against RB Leipzig. Jürgen Klopp’s team took full advantage of Leipzig’s defensive shooter at the Puskas Arena in Budapest. Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane struck coolly after the break, which resulted in a 0-2 victory. Despite the fact that Liverpool actually got the two hits as a gift from the Germans, it was one of the better games of Klopp’s team in recent times.
In its own country, Liverpool has not made much of it in recent months. For years, Anfield Road was an impregnable fortress in the Premier League, but in recent weeks, team after team have suddenly managed to get the full booty, visiting the Scousers. Liverpool lost all of its last five league matches at home. Perhaps it’s not even such a big drawback that it was difficult to play at Anfield due to the Covid-19 restrictions. The same players are still in the rag basket at The Reds, although Klopp can still send an excellent team into the field.
RB Leipzig:
RB Leipzig had a decent hangover after the match three weeks ago. Qualitatively, Die Roten Bullen offered more than a good match, only after ninety minutes there was a hard verdict on the scoreboard of the stadium in Budapest: 0-2. The Covid-19 rules made it difficult for Leipzig to play in Liverpool. In itself, the Saxons were allowed to enter England, but they would have to be quarantined when they returned home to Germany, which would make playing league matches impossible. The solution that has now been found is not ideal, but it is workable.
After the defeat against Liverpool, Leipzig has by no means gone into a dip. In his own country, Julian Nagelsmann’s team has since won four times, three of which in the Bundesliga. Leipzig is, with only two points behind list leader Bayern Munich, certainly not without a chance for the national title. And Leipzig is also still active in the cup, so the team is still in the race for three prizes. “My players know that crazy things have happened in football,” Nagelsmann said this week. The task is of course difficult, the young trainer knew, but certainly not impossible. “We believe in it,” said the RBL trainer.
