RB Leipzig

RB Leipzig played a goalless draw against Borussia Monchengladbach last weekend, but they are still the second-best team in Germany.

Winning in four of their last six games overall proves their good form, but an even more impressive fact is that RB Leipzig have won all five of their home games so far, conceding just three goals and scoring 12.

Quality offense and strong defense should be decisive against mediocre 2.Bundesliga teams like Magdeburg, who are going through a crisis.

Magdeburg

Magdeburg is stuck at the bottom of 2.Bundesliga, losing 10 of their 14 games. They were on a series of three straight defeats until winning 3-0 against Nurnberg this last weekend.

That win should raise their morale a bit, but they are still a class below RB Leipzig in all segments.

Magdeburg is the weakest scoring team in 2.Bundesliga and also the worst travellers (five defeats in seven road games).

The Betting Verdict

This looks like a banker home win, although I rarely use that term.

Still, the difference in quality is huge, so unless RB Leipzig is having a really bad night, this should be a comfortable home win.

We should also see some goals, so combine it with the home win for a slightly better payout.

The Pick :

RB Leipzig 3-0 Magdeburg
