Liverpool vs RB Leipzig Match Preview

Liverpool welcomes RB Leipzig at Ferenc Puskás Stadium, Budapest, for this second leg of the UEFA Champions League last 16 knock out stage

Liverpool has a great advantage after their clear 2-0 win in the first leg, which was also played at Ferenc Puskás Stadium. However, they seem completely out of form in their most recent matches, so I do not rule out an upset here.

They are coming from a huge negative streak in their Premier League campaign, actually, they have six home defeats in a row. They have moved down in the 8th place of the table and the European ticket will not be an easy task for them

RB Leipzig had a four-game winning streak before their defeat to Liverpool, followed by a similar streak right after the first leg. They seem to be in excellent form, ready to fight with Bayern Munich for the domestic title.

I expect a rather defensive approach from Liverpool here, undoubtedly their main goal is to qualify to the next round, so another win tonight is not essential for the Reds. RB Leipzig will definitely be a tough nut to crack, and they will fight until the end.

I will opt for the double chance X2 for the visitors in this second leg, RB Leipzig is definitely in better form than Liverpool and needs more this win.
