Good day, dear friends! Tomorrow, Bundesliga matches are taking place, which will undoubtedly thrill us with interesting moments and outcomes. I would like to examine with you the 12th round match between "Wolfsburg" and "RB Leipzig". The match will take place at the "Volkswagen Arena" and will kick-off at 17:30 GMT. Let's see in what form the teams are at the moment, and try to make an informed decision on what bet to place to build up our bank. Let's get started!
"Wolfsburg": Casteels; Lacroix, Jenz, Zesiger; Baku, Svanberg, Arnold, Maehle; Cerny, Majer; Wind.
"RB Leipzig": Blaswich; Henrichs, Simakan, Lukeba, Raum; Simons, Schlager, Kampl, Forsberg; Openda, Sesko.
Let's take a look at the state of the "Wolves". Last season, "Wolfsburg" finished 8th. Currently, the club is seated 11th on the league table. They have earned 13 points from 11 games. Their form over the last month isn't exactly inspiring... they've secured only 1 point from 4 Bundesliga rounds. This came from a home match against "Werder", which ended in a tie (2:2). In their latest game, they suffered a crushing defeat against "Borussia M" on the road, conceding 4 goals. Wolfsburg will miss striker, Lukas Nmecha, as well as Patrick Wimmer.
Let's talk about the "Red Bulls". Last season, the squad finished in the 3rd place. At present, they sit at the 4th position with 23 points to their name. The club had faced a bit of a slump, but quickly recovered. After a shocking defeat to "Mainz" (0:2), the team managed to secure a home victory over "Freiburg" (3:1). In the Champions League, "RB Leipzig" managed to clinch victory over "Red Star" twice: the first at home with a 2-goal advantage, and the second by the barest of margins away. As to the injured players, Dani Olmo will continue to be absent following his knee issues. Centre-backs Willi Orban and Ellyes Skhiri also have knee issues, so they won't be available for the game.
This calendar year, "RB Leipzig" has consistently won the head-to-head encounters, barring the very last match. A month ago, the teams met on field in the context of the German Cup. "Wolfsburg" struck first in the 14th minute and managed to hold onto this advantage throughout the entire encounter. The dismissal of Poulsen early in the 2nd half also worked in their favour. An interesting fact to note: despite the dismissal and ultimate score, "RB Leipzig" still displayed superior ball possession (67%).
So, let's make a decision on what bet to place considering all the aforementioned. I will say that Wolfsburg’s games preceding the break were less than stellar. Therefore, it’s safe to assume the brief respite would have done them some good. The hosts will also be buoyed by their German Cup victory over the opposition. However, the form of "RB Leipzig" still appears more stable and reliable. I can't say they have any problems in away games, and their attacking unit consistently carries out its duties. Therefore, I'll propose you trust in the success of the visitors and bet on their win.
On average, the "Red Bulls" make 1.7 goals during away games. Less fruitful matches have only been against very strong opponents. The hosts may not launch the most aggressive attacks, but they usually play more assertively on home turf. Overall, I don’t believe this will be a dull, low-scoring match and suggest betting on a total of over 2.5 goals. Best of luck and enjoy the game, dear friends!
