RB Leipzig vs Freiburg Prediction & Betting Tips (26 October)

What if this season was the right one for Leipzig? In search of its first German championship title for several years now, RasenBall Sport has this time got off to an ideal start in this Bundesliga which allows it to be on par with Bayern Munich with whom it shares 1st place in the classification. Still undefeated on the national scene, Marco Rose's men won their last 3 league duels played against Augsburg 4-0, Heidenheim 0-1 and Mainz 0-2 last week, with great mastery. On the other hand, the Red Bulls got off to a very poor start to their European epic, losing on the first two days of the Champions League against Atlético Madrid 2-1 and Juventus 2-3. It will not be easy to bounce back this week against the Liverpool Reds. For their part, SC Friborg is also meeting expectations for the moment at the start of the season.

Everything is indeed going well for the Black Forest club which has settled on the 3rd step of the podium after the first 7 days, with only 2 units behind its opponent of the day and Bayern Munich who are leaders. Julian Schuster's players have even won 4 of their last 5 matches. And after experiencing just one big disappointment recently against Sankt Pauli 0-3, the Brazilians from Brigsau were able to revive by defeating Werder Bremen 0-1 and Augsburg 3-1 last week.

Defections are still legion on the Leipzig side. Indeed, the Austrian international midfielder Schlager, the hopeful Ouédraogo, the interesting midfielder Seiwald and the left back German international Raum are all forced to withdraw this weekend. Coming out injured against Mainz last week, Belgian striker Openda (4 goals) is not guaranteed to be present either. On the other hand, the Slovenian striker Sesko (2 goals) and the Dutchman Xavi Simons (2 goals, 2 assists) should be able to apply for a place in Marco Rose's 11.

As often, the too fragile Kyereh will not be able to hold his place this weekend. Playmaker Merlin Röhl, substitutes Gulde and Schmidt and the French defender Sildillia will also be forced to give up their turn for this poster. Nevertheless, Friborg will be able to count on interesting elements like the Austrian Adamu (2 goals, 1 assist), the Italian Grifo (3 goals, 4 assists assists) and the Japanese Doan (3 goals, 1 assist) who should all start.
