Leipzig vs Wolfsburg Match Preview

RB Leipzig are not playing very well in their most recent games before the international break. They are winless in their 3 most recent games in all competitions, including a 0-2 home defeat to Lyon in the group stage of the Champions League. Despite this negative streak, Leipzig are 5th placed in the Bundesliga, having the same points with four more teams and two less than first-placed M'gladbach.

Wolfsburg are the only team still able to maintain an unbeaten record in the 2019/20 Bundesliga. After 7 rounds, Wolfsburg have won 4, drew 3, sitting in the 2nd place of the table, having 1 point less than M'gladbach (15 compared to 16). Wolfsburg did not have a superstar, but have impressed with their discipline and their tight play in the defense. So, despite just scoring 10 goals, which is less than 12th place Bremen (12 goals), but thanks to only conceding only 4 times, the team of coach Oliver Glasner have bagged 15 out of 21  points. If they maintain their current form, Wolfsburg have the potential to finish in the top 4 of the German Bundesliga.

These two two teams showed very balanced strength in their previous h2h encounters. Leipzig are a bit better with the last 4/8 wins, and Wolfsburg have 3/8 wins. But the more positive sign for the home side is that they have won twice this year (2-0 and 1-0). Therefore, they will be more confident facing this opponent.
