RB Leipzig vs Wolfsburg Prediction & Betting tips
RB Leipzig and VfL Wolfsburg are coupled in the eighth finals of the DFB Pokal. Who will conquer a place in the last eight?
RB Leipzig:
RB Leipzig has had two good matches in the Bundesliga behind them. A fortnight ago, Fortuna Düsseldorf was beaten 0-4 and last Friday Die Roten Bullen had few problems with Hannover 96. On a visit to Northern Germany, Leipzig won quite easily with 0-3. Because of these two wins, the club is more solid in the top-four, making the Champions League of next season seems quite feasible.
In the short club history of RBL there has been little cup success. Once the eighth finals were reached, which is the best achievement. Over the past two years, the cup adventure ended in the first and second rounds respectively. On the way to this round, Leipzig eliminated Vikoria Köln (1-3) and TSG Hoffenheim (2-0). Trainer Ralf Rangnick likes to rotate in his starting eleven. Wednesday’s game offers a great opportunity for that matter. However, those who get peace are difficult to say.
VfL Wolfsburg:
VfL Wolfsburg delivered a good game last Saturday. The green-orange won 0-1 at Hertha BSC. This is a good thing, since not many teams succeed in triumphing with the Berliners. Wout Weghorst was the only goal scorer in a not too good match. On the basis of battle and good defense, Wolfsburg dragged the three points over the line. Koen Casteels, the goalkeeper, also saved his team a couple of times, in a match in which Paul Verhaegh started in the starting line-up.
In the DFB Pokal, Wolfsburg narrowly won 0-1 near the small Elversberg in the first round earlier this season (Regionalliga Südwest, fourth level). In the previous round were Die Wölfe in a bad match with 0-2 too strong for Hannover 96. Weghorst also scored in that match. Just like Leipzig, some changes to the base could also be made at Wolfsburg. For example, the Croatian Josip Brekalo could be put in the base by his coach Bruno Labbadia.
