Command Analysis

RB Leipzig

Current form
Leipzig is having a mixed start to the season. In the Bundesliga, the Bulls are among the leaders, but in the Champions League, they have not been able to score a single point in two rounds, although they could have easily taken points in each of the matches. In the first round in Madrid against Atletico, they managed to score in the fourth minute, after which the opponent equalized the score. It seemed that there would be a draw, but they conceded at the very end (1:2). Next came the home match against Juventus, in which the opponent, with the score 1:1, was left with ten men in the 59th minute. However, even with such a situation, Marco Rose charges managed to lose 2:3.
In the Bundesliga, https://rbleipzig.com/de target=_blank rel=noopener>Leipzig is doing much better – 17 points after seven rounds and second place in the table. Bayern is ahead only on additional indicators. Here we no longer see any lapses in defense, only two goals conceded. Not only goalkeeper Gulacsi, but also the defender pair Orban – Lukib deserve a lot of credit for this. On the eve of the European Cup game, the “bulls” beat Bochum 0:2 away in the championship.
In attack, the main threat to the opponents is Benjamin Sesko. It is the Slovenian forward who has scored all three goals for the team in the Champions League. There are currently active rumors about the player possible move to the Premier League.

Liverpool

Current form
Liverpool have been performing almost flawlessly since the start of the season in all tournaments. In the Champions League, the Merseysiders confidently dealt with two representatives of Serie A in the opening rounds - with Milan away (3:1) and with Bologna at home (2:0). In each of these matches there was a noticeable advantage, the victories were fully deserved, it was noticeable that at the right moment they managed to add, they allowed little to their opponents near their goal.
Eight rounds have passed in the Premier League, Liverpool is the sole leader, having collected 21 points. The gap with Manchester City is minimal, the whole fight is still ahead, but in general, Arne Sloth charges have made a bid for a possible title. So far, taking into account all official matches, the Reds have allowed themselves only one misfire, when they lost to Nottingham Forest (0:1). After that failure, the team has produced a series of seven victories in a row and clearly does not plan to stop there today in Leipzig. In the last round of the Premier League, Liverpool won 2:1 at home against Chelsea in a difficult match.
Mohamed Salah has been in incredible form since the start of the season. In the game against Bologna, he first made an assist and then scored a goal himself. Against Chelsea, the Egyptian converted a penalty in the first half, and in the second 45 minutes, Jones scored the winning goal from his assist.
Disqualifications and injuries
The worrying thing is that Diogo Jota was injured in the match against Chelsea. Alisson and Elliott are still injured and will not play today.
Interesting trends for betting
- Liverpool have won 1-0 in the first half of their last four matches
- Liverpool have scored at least two goals in eight of their last nine Champions League matches
- The Merseysiders have taken second-half lead in seven of their last nine Champions League games

In the first two rounds, Leipzig, despite a generally good game, did not score a single point. Individual failed periods, unclear actions in defense led to missed goals.

Liverpool is one of those opponents who are able to clearly realize their moments and take advantage of the mistakes of their opponents. We think that in a difficult battle, the guests will secure their third victory in a row in the tournament today.
Our prediction is a Liverpool win at odds of 1.84
