Leipzig vs Liverpool Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Champions League Prediction
The UEFA Champions League is back and a number of top matches are lined up as the second round commences, among them is Leizpig hosting Liverpool in Budapest. Travel restrictions in Germany mean this game couldn’t be played in the country, and both managers have stated they are okay with playing at a neutral venue. It is going to be the first ever meeting between these two sides and they’ve had mixed fortunes going to the game. Leipzig are coming from a 2-1 win over Augsburg despite resting five key players in preparation for the Liverpool game. That win made it four on the bounce for Leipzig. They have lost just two of their last 15 matches, and won 11. In four of the last five matches they’ve scored two or more goals. A total of 12 goals in the last five matches is a very good return for Leipzig, who have also been great in defence, conceding thrice in the five games. At the group stages, Leipzig won four of their six matches, but managed to keep just one clean sheet.
Liverpool, on the other hand, have been sloppy in recent times, and head here on three straight losses, and six in 10. They have no clean sheet in the last seven matches and have managed just one in the last 10. A long injury list isn’t helping, and it was made worse with three new confirmations on Saturday. At the moment, it is in defence that the injuries have really stung, while goalkeeper Alison Becker’s solidity has been in question with erratic performances lately. The team is coming from a 3-1 defeat to Leicester City; the second straight game in which they’ve conceded three or more goals. While they’ve failed to score in five of their last 11 matches, lately they’ve been somewhat consistent in attack. Liverpool have failed to score in one of the last five matches, but have eight goals in the five games. In the six group stage matches, they won four and lost one, while keeping four clean sheets.

Our Leipzig vs Liverpool Prediction
Leipzig rested key players in their weekend game and will have rested for a day more when they play Liverpool. The Germans are on a good run and will be favorites here, looking at Liverpool’s form. Leipzig have performed well in attack, and even better defensively in their last five matches and will want to take advantage of Liverpool’s dip. A win for the Germans is a good pick on this.
