Borussia Dortmund

Let's start with the "Black and Yellows". Last season, once again, they clinched second place. After a promising start this season alongside Bayer and Bayern, the team has slightly slipped. They are now wrapping up the top-five list with 25 points. "Borussia D" exited the German Cup on the 6th, conceding 2 unanswered goals against Stuttgart. In the last Bundesliga round, they also played an away match against Bayer, with each team scoring 1 goal. Their last Champions League match resulted in a 2-goal advantage victory over Milan. It’s worth mentioning that the last time the lads played at home was two weeks ago. 

RB Leipzig

Next, let's talk about the "Red Bulls". Last season, they finished in third place. Currently, they hold the fourth place, with 26 points. After a disappointing loss to Wolfsburg (2:1), they migrated for another away Champions League game against Manchester City, ending up with a 3:2 loss. Nevertheless, they managed to recover last week and squeaked past Heidenheim on their home turf. As for injuries, Dani Olmo has been ruled out for several weeks due to a shoulder injury, while Willi Orban hang in the balance.

Head to Head

Out of their last five meetings, RB Leipzig managed to win four times, with Borussia Dortmund victorious once. In their latest face-off, on the 5th of April this year, RB Leipzig lashed out 2 unanswered goals.

Prediction

So, it's time to place our bets. We anticipate a heated match. Both teams are expected to put up aggressive performances. Personally, I believe that RB Leipzig is in better form and could potentially edge out the hosts. I propose a bet on the visitors' victory with a draw.

Total Goals Forecast

In this match, a proper shootout should be seen, as initiative flips back and forth. I'd wager the total goals will surpass 2.5.
