RB Leipzig – Mainz : Preview & Prediction
As part of the 18th day, RB Leipzig receives Mainz. The locals are very disappointing this season, whether in the Bundesliga or in Europe. Indeed, RasenBall Sport is currently in 10th place, already 6 points behind the top 5 and quite far from qualifying places for the Champions League. After their defeat against Union Berlin (2-1), the Leipzig players recovered well in Mönchengladbach (4-1) before being held in check by Augsburg (1-1). Just before the break, Nkunku’s teammates were again surprised when they received Arminia Bielefeld (0-2).
