St. Pauli vs RB Leipzig Prediction & Betting Tips (22 September)

Last year, Sankt Pauli was finally able to achieve its goal of moving up to the Bundesliga. And in what way! The Hamburg-based club won the championship title by defeating Holstein Kiel to return to the elite after very long years of absence. Despite this and a fairly good summer preparation, the debut at the highest level is very difficult at the moment for this team which has not yet taken the slightest point after 3 days. The promoted side have just suffered 3 defeats against Heidenheim 0-2, Union Berlin 1-0 and Augsburg 3-1 and they logically already find themselves in the relegation zone. RB Leipzig, for its part, does not no shortage of ambitions in this championship where he is still trying to get his hands on the Meisterschale since the arrival of the Red Bull team at the head of the club.

Last year, RasenBall Sport failed again by finishing just off the podium, but it got back to work rather well at the start of the season. The Red Bulls have 7 points after 3 days after having won two victories against Bochum 1-0 and above all, against Bayer Leverkusen 2-3. On the other hand, they were held by Union Berlin 0-0 last weekend and they therefore fell 2 points behind the leader, Bayern Munich. This week, Leipzig begins its European campaign by traveling to Atlético Madrid.

Among the locals, the long-term injured Zoller and midfielder Metcalfe are missing, as are replacement goalkeepers Ahlers and Burchert. Recruited this summer from Lens, the rather disappointing Morgan Guilavogui also joined the infirmary last week. The promoted side already find themselves in difficulty offensively and only midfielder Boukhalfa has already found the net since the start of the season. The RBL will travel to Hamburg without the injured player. long-term player Schlager, and the hopeful Ouédraogo who are on the floor at the moment.

Good news, however, for coach Marco Rose who finds his defender Willy Orban who was suspended during the last two meetings. At the forefront, we will certainly find the former Lenois Openda who is already in good form at the start of the season with 2 goals scored in 3 days. His friend Xavi Simons is still looking for his first achievement this season.
