🗞️ Team News: RB Leipzig
Lukas Klostermann (Stomach flu), Assan Ouédraogo (Knee injury), Xaver Schlager (Cruciate ligament tear), David Raum (Ankle injury), Nicolas Seiwald (Muscle injury) and Xavi Simons (Ankle injury) won’t be playing for RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose.
We think that Leipzig should use a 3-4-2-1 formation this time with Peter Gulacsi, Benjamin Henrichs, Willi Orban, Castello Lukeba, Lutsharel Geertruida, Antonio Nusa, Amadou Haidara, Kevin Kampl, C. Baumgartner, Benjamin Sesko and Ikoma Lois Openda.
📰 Team News: Freiburg
Freiburg boss Julian Schuster has some current player fitness concerns. Merlin Röhl (Syndesmosis ligament tear), Manuel Gulde (Back problems), Daniel-Kofi Kyereh (Knee surgery) and Kenneth Schmidt (Injury to abdominal muscles) will not be playing here.
There’s a good chance that Freiburg could decide to elect for a 4-2-3-1 lineup, settling for Noah Atubolu, Lukas Kuebler, Matthias Ginter, Philipp Lienhart, Christian Guenter, Maximilian Eggestein, Patrick Osterhage, Ritsu Doan, Eren Dinkci, Vincenzo Grifo and Chukwubuike Adamu.
💡 Prediction
In our view, RB Leipzig will most probably be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
In contrast, Freiburg will not find it easy to make a breakthrough - but, we do see them getting enough chances to score, too.
Our tip is for a fairly comfortable 3-1 winning margin for RB Leipzig at the end of the match.
