RB Leipzig v BVB: Predicted line-ups | OneFootball

Before the “classic” against FC Bayern in their next home game, BVB faces a particularly tough hurdle. Away at fifth-placed RB Leipzig, they are aiming for another win to keep the championship race alive. A defeat could leave BVB nine points behind FC Bayern Munich. To avoid this, the following lineup is expected.

BVB will definitely be without Emre Can, Filippo Mane, and Niklas Süle. There is still hope that Nico Schlotterbeck might be fit in time for the evening kickoff. According to kicker, it is suspected that he will not make the starting eleven, which could look like this for Dortmund:

Gregor Kobel – Luca Reggiani, Waldemar Anton, Ramy Bensebaini – Yan Couto, Marcel Sabitzer, Felix Nmecha, Daniel Svensson – Karim Adeyemi, Carney Chukwuemeka – Serhou Guirassy

Sabitzer likely back in BVB’s starting eleven

Leipzig has won seven of their eleven home games, drawn once, but also lost three times in their arena. BVB, the second-best away team, is coming to town, with an away record of 6-4-1, their only loss on the road coming against FC Bayern.

The hosts, Rasenballsport, are missing four players. These are the following:

Things have been a bit bumpy lately in the Bundesliga, with RB Leipzig winning only two of their last five matches, drawing twice and losing once. RB also exited the DFB-Pokal, though that was away at FC Bayern. The following eleven players are expected to secure the next three points today, according to kicker’s predicted starting lineup:

Maarten Vandevoordt – Ridle Baku, Willi Orban, Castello Lukeba, David Raum – Nicoals Seiwald – Brajan Gruda, Christoph Baumgartner – Yan Diomande, Romulo, Antonio Nusa

Despite Borussia’s current run of six consecutive Bundesliga wins, Leipzig is considered a slight favorite for the three points by the bookmakers. The odds for a home win are around 2.00. For a BVB win, the odds range between 3.10 and 3.25.

Last season, both teams won their home games: Leipzig 2-0, BVB 2-1. This season, today’s hosts RB picked up a point at Signal Iduna Park with a 1-1 draw.
