Leipzig vs Real Madrid: prediction for the Champions League fixture
On October 25, RB Leipzig will host Real Madrid in the Champions League. What to expect from this fixture? Do the hosts have a chance? Here's our prediction.
Command Analysis
RB Leipzig
GermanyRB Leipzig lost the first two Champions League games, but they bounced back and defeated Celtic twice, which allowed them to climb to second in Group F. If the Bulls can overcome Real Madrid, they will have a chance of qualifying for the playoffs from the top line. Leipzig delivered six goals in the first four games but conceded seven.
In the domestic league, the Bulls are currently in 8th place with 16 points from 11 games. They had a very dramatic game last weekend - losing 0:2 to Augsburg, Leipzig scored two goals in the last minute, thus extending their unbeaten streak to seven games. In the first round of the German Cup, RB Leipzig crushed Hamburg (4:0).
The home team will be without Gulacsi, Klostermann, Werner, Laimer, and Halstenberg.
Real Madrid
SpainReal Madridhave already secured a ticket to the knockouts (for the 26th time in their history). The reigning champions of Europe are unbeaten in the current season - they haven't lost in 22 games. Galacticos defeated all their opponents in the first three Champions League games and then drew against Shakhtar Donetsk (1:1) two weeks ago. Los Blancos conceded only two goals in four matches.
In La Liga, Carlo Ancelotti's men top the standings with 31 points from 11 games. Last weekend, they beat Sevilla (3:1). The score was tied at 1:1 until Lucas and Valverde delivered two goals between 79th and 81st minutes.
Valverde, Benzema, Ceballos, and Diaz will not play against RB Leipzig on Tuesday.

Tip and bets
The visiting team is on top form. The likes of Benzema and Valverde will rest today, and Ancelotti will give a chance to his youngsters. We believe that Real Madrid will be able to defeat RB Leipzig in this game, but it might end in a draw, too. The Bulls have problems on the defensive, so we are not convinced they can beat such a strong opponent as Real.
Our prediction — Asian handicap (0) to Real Madrid
The Spanish side has an overwhelming advantage in the head-to-head, and we expect the team to get a confident two-goal victory here and secure the top-line finish.
Second bet — Real Madrid to win by 2 goals
