RB Leipzig vs Werder Bremen Prediction & Betting tips
Werder Bremen has a particularly difficult task in this round. The North Germans play a game against RB Leipzig. The Saxons are in a very good mood at the moment, after a successful European match.
RB Leipzig:
RB Leipzig delivered a great performance midweek. The team from Saxony knew it needed a victory to reach the eighth finals of the Champions League. Manchester United were the opponent on Tuesday. Leipzig started the game knowing that the first game against the English had been lost 5-0. But in Leipzig things went better for Julian Nagelsmann’s team. A quick 2-0 lead was extended to 3-0 by Justin Kluivert in the second half. In the final phase it became exciting, but RBL pulled the victory over the finish line (3-2).
Now the focus has to shift back to the competition. Last week, Leipzig played the top match against Bayern Munich. A spectacular game ended in a 3-3 draw. Just like in the match against United, Justin Kluivert was also accurate in the duel in Munich. Nagelsmann could choose to make some changes to his line-up on Saturday. Kluivert could start in the base.
Werder Bremen:
Werder Bremen has not been able to win seven league games in a row. Last weekend it went wrong for Die Hanseaten in their home game against VfB Stuttgart. Werder never really got into the game. Opportunities were rarely created, so there was not much to compete for the 1-2 defeat. Werder is currently four points above the relegation line. If the current lousy form continues, just like last season, they have to fight against relegation.
And now the tough away match against Leipzig awaits. Since that team’s promotion in 2016, Bremen has lost all of its four games in Leipzig. Last year, the green and white left the field with a 3-0 defeat. Davie Selke, who was under contract with Leipzig in the past, will probably not be able to play on Saturday due to an injury. Midfielders Kevin Möhwald and Jean-Manuel Mbom are available again.
