RB Leipzig – Liverpool

In Leipzig, two attacking and high-scoring teams will meet

The most entertaining football in the third round of the Champions League general stage can be played on German soil. Even though Leipzig currently has a high profile in Europe, the standings suggest that teams of different levels will meet. Liverpool, who parted ways with Klopp in the off-season and now play under Slot, will take to the pitch as a representative of the leading group. The Merseyside club has gained the maximum number of points after two rounds and is not in first place only because of the worst goal difference with their rivals. In turn, Leipzig did not gain a single point for two game days, so in the home walls will be extremely motivated. Bookmakers have identified the guests as favourites for the upcoming meeting, offering odds of 1.86 on their victory. Leipzig has started the season in the German league quite well. After seven rounds, the team has no defeats, playing two matches in a draw and winning the rest of the meetings. Seventeen points, like the "bulls", scored only one collective - Bayern. It is with the Munich club that Red Bull now share the leading position. In the Champions League for Leipzig events are not developing in the best way so far. In the opening round, the German club scored first in Madrid against Atletico, but Griezmann and company not only got back, but in the end of the game they scored the winning goal. A separate tragedy was Leipzig's home defeat to Juventus. "Bulls" at the score of 2:2 played in the majority, but managed to concede the third goal and lose. Nottingham Forest became the only club to take away points from Liverpool this season. "Foresters" at Anfield defeated the wards of Slot, who were then heavily involved in preparation for the trip to Milan for the Champions League match against the club of the same name. In the elite European tournament Liverpool won two victories, except for the "rosso-neri", divided with another Italians - Bologna. A day before leaving for Germany, the Reds overcame Chelsea's resistance at their own stadium, picking up their tenth win in eleven meetings of the season. Both teams love and know how to attack, so Leipzig will not be limited to one or two goals.
