RB Leipzig
- RB Leipzig have won three and lost two of their last five games in all competitions, with two straight wins.
- Die Roten Bullen have won all three of their home Bundesliga 2026-2027 games without conceding a goal this season.
- Sixth-placed RB Leipzig (9 points from 5 Bundesliga 2026-2027 matches) play host to 11th-placed SV Elversberg (7 points from 5 matches) in Saturday's Bundesliga 2026-2027 fixture at Red Bull Arena in Germany.
- Martin Demichelis has got them playing a highly structured 4-3-3 system that controls the center of the pitch and attacks vertically while playing together in high pressing play.
SV Elversberg
- SV Elversberg have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five matches.
- Elversberg arrive off the back of a 0-0 away draw at Schalke and 1-0 defeat at Union Berlin, which shows that they are competitive and tough to beat, but not sharp enough in the final third.
- Vincent Wagner has set his team up in a bold 4-2-3-1 system that will use pace on the wings and a hard-running forward to try and exploit Leipzig.
Head-to-Head
- First Bundesliga meeting of two clubs on different paths.
- Sixth-placed RB Leipzig (9 points from 5 Bundesliga 2026-2027 matches) play host to 11th-placed SV Elversberg (7 points from 5 matches) in Saturday's Bundesliga 2026-2027 fixture at Red Bull Arena in Germany.
Key Players
- Christopher Nkunku is a live scoring threat for Leipzig with four goals from his last five appearances and 4/11 to score any time looks fair.
- Nkunku's strike rate this term is only matched by Antonio Nusa, who is Leipzig's top Bundesliga 2026-2027 scorer with two goals in four games.
- Elversberg's Maurice Krattenmacher is their only consistent source of goals with three goals in their four Bundesliga 2026-2027 matches and he has scored three of his side's five goals in their last five in all competitions (4/1 to score any time).
Betting Insights
- Backing Leipzig at 1.34 is the only way to play the game if you are planning on making some profit in the game, although it doesn't suit us at all.
- Die Elv (7.0) are a much higher price than we would feel comfortable with them being, while the 5.6 draw seems equally far fetched.
Prediction
- This game does have the potential to be a mismatch and we feel the value lies in Leipzig to win to nil.
- Die Roten Bullen have won all three of their home Bundesliga 2026-2027 games without conceding a goal this season, which supports the to win to nil angle.
