Wehen Wiesbaden vs Leipzig Prediction & Betting Tips - DFB Pokal
by Devesh Jaganath | in DFB Pokal Predictions
The first round of the DFB Pokal will conclude with Wehen Wiesbaden facing RB Leipzig on Wednesday. The hosts are currently 14th in the 2. Bundesliga, while the visitors are fourth in the top flight. Wehen Wiesbaden have cracked an unlucky draw and are massive underdogs. They were beaten in their last match 2-0 by Elversberg. That result extended their winless run in the league to four games, including three losses and a draw. The hosts also conceded two or more goals in three of those matches. After seven league games this season, Wehen Wiesbaden have taken eight points. They are just one point above the relegation zone as it stands. While the odds are stacked against them, the hosts will hope that their opponent's likely rotation of players can work to their advantage. However, it is still going to be a tall order for Wehen Wiesbaden to progress in this one.
Meanwhile, RB Leipzig began the season by winning the Super Cup, beating Bayern Munich 3-0. Their only dropped points to date came in their opening match, where they lost 3-2 to Leverkusen. Since then, Leipzig have been flawless, recording four consecutive wins coming into this match. They also got their Champions League campaign started with a solid 3-1 win over Young Boys last week. As mentioned, with a league match against Bayern Munich to come over the weekend and Man City in midweek, we should see loads of changes in this one. Still, they should have more than enough in reserve to win this match.
