On Saturday afternoon, Wolfsburg hosts RB Leipzig at the Volkswagen Arena as the visitors look to extend their recent solid run in the Bundesliga.
Wolfsburg form guideThe Wolves are currently in 11th place in the Bundesliga table after a poor recent run of form in the German top flight. A 4-0 home defeat by Monchengladbach last time out means that Niko Kovac’s team has failed to win in five league games, having suffered four losses.
One of the most significant factors in Wolfsburg’s recent poor league form has been a leaky defence, as they have conceded at least two goals in their previous five matches in the Bundesliga.
Even Wolfsburg’s usually solid home form has been inconsistent of late in the league, as they have won three, drawn one and lost two of their previous six home matches in the Bundesliga.
RB Leipzig form guideDie Roten Bullen are currently in fourth place in the Bundesliga table after a decent recent run of form in the German top flight.
A 3-1 home win over Freiburg last time out in the Bundesliga means that Leipzig have won three of their previous four games in the league, having scored at least three goals in all recent victories.
Marco Rose’s team has also been tough to beat in the Bundesliga, as they have lost just once in their previous ten games in the German top flight.
RB Leipzig have a solid recent away record in the Bundesliga, as they have won five of their previous seven games on their travels. A 2-0 defeat at Mainz ended a three-game unbeaten run away from home for the visitors in the Bundesliga.
What am I backing?The two teams' recent form is in stark contrast. Therefore, the bet I am backing is the away victory, as I believe Leipzig are in confident mood and could take advantage of Wolfsburg’s recent struggles.
