RB Leipzig – 1899 Hoffenheim 16-04-2021

RB Leipzig and 1899 Hoffenheim will play in a a game of Bundesliga, Round 29 this Friday at Red Byull Arena stadium.

I think it will be an interesting match, in which both teams need a victory, as for RB Leipzig this match is very important for shortening or at least for keeping the difference of 5 points with Bayern Munich. The leaders in the standings have a match with Wolfsburg, who are 3rd, and then with Leverkusen, so Leipzig must use every opportunity to add valuable points to its assets if it wants to continue the fight for the title. The hosts are 2nd with 60 points, and from their last 5 games, they have 3 wins, 1 draw, and 1 loss. The stable defense of the team is impressive. They have the fewest goals conceded so far and at the same time do not score many goals, but here the point asset is important and even with a minimal victory, Leipzig will try to take this match and expect a good development in the remaining rounds of the championship. The coach of Leipzig will most likely bet on the attacking duo Christopher Nkunku and Dani Olmo, with the support of midfielder Marcel Sabitzer. There are 5 rounds left until the end of the Bundesliga this season and the task of Leipzig to melt 5 points ahead does not seem easy, but they will try to get closer and more likely to overtake the leader Bayern.

Hoffenheim is 12th in the standings this season. The team is unlikely to try to reach the top six, as it is 13 points behind the 6th Leverkusen, and here it is more likely to aim to consolidate its place in the middle of the table in the remaining matches. Each point is valuable, so, I think Hoffenheim can score a goal in this match and the draw should also satisfy them, depends on the form of both teams and the difference in standing this season. Bebou and Kramaric will probably lead the attack of the guests in this match, trying to surprise the defense of RB Leipzig.

Possible composition for the match LB Leipzig: Gulacsi: Konate, Upamecano, Orban; Adams, Sabitzer, Kampl, Angelino; Nkunku, Olmo; Sorloth

Possible lineup for the match 1899 Hoffenheim: Baumann; Posch, Grillitsch, Richards; Kaderabek, Rudy, Samassekou, Sessegnon; Baumgartner; Bebou, Kramaric
