RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich continue their dominant march towards the German Bundesliga title as they travel to RB Leipzig on Saturday.

The Bavarians have been almost unstoppable this season and also boast an impressive record in this fixture. They should have too much for the hosts, who have been slightly below their best lately.

RB Leipzig News

RB Leipzig are coming off a 2-0 home victory over Freiburg last time out in the Bundesliga, with Willi Orban and Romulo on target. That was a timely return to winning ways for Ole Werner’s team, who had lost their previous two matches.

Sitting third on the table, 15 points off the pace, the title seems like a long shot for RB Leipzig, who will be more worried about Stuttgart and Hoffenheim breathing down their necks. They have won four of their last five home matches, but a recent 3-1 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen suggests a vulnerability against the top sides.

RB Leipzig have quality going forward, but are often unconvincing at the back, which often makes for high-scoring encounters. Four of their last five matches across all competitions have produced over 3.5 goals.

Bayern Munich News

Bayern Munich have been the dominant force in the Bundesliga this season and remain unbeaten after 17 matches. They hold an 11-point lead at the top of the table and will be keen to open up a wider gap.

The Bavarians claimed a 3-1 victory at Cologne in their previous Bundesliga fixture, with Serge Gnabry, Kim Min-Jae, and Lennart Karl getting the goals. That result is also part of an impressive away record for Vincent Kompany's team, who have won their last five matches on the road.

At the heart of Bayern Munich's dominant campaign is Harry Kane, who has scored 20 Bundesliga goals this season. They are often involved in high-scoring encounters, with their last seven away matches across all competitions producing over 3.5 goals.

Head to Head

Bayern Munich have 12 wins while RB Leipzig have picked up three victories, with eight draws in the last 23 matches. The Bavarians are also unbeaten in the last five meetings and eased to a 6-0 home victory in the reverse fixture back in August

Verdict

RB Leipzig v Bayern Munich

It is usually a mismatch in this fixture, with Bayern Munich often dominant against RB Leipzig. Having also won their last five away matches, the Bavarians are expected to claim the upper hand in Saturday's clash.

Kane boasts a solid scoring record in this fixture and, having grabbed a hat-trick in the reverse fixture, could be set to find the net once again. With four of the last five matches between both teams producing over 3.5 goals, a repeat could be on the cards here.
