RB Leipzig vs Hamburger SV

RB Leipzig have struggled recently, dropping their last two matches across all competitions, including a heavy defeat in the UEFA Champions League. Their domestic form is mixed, with a win over Borussia Mönchengladbach followed by a loss to Werder Bremen. Hamburger SV have faced a difficult start to their Bundesliga campaign, losing their opening two matches without scoring a goal, including a heavy defeat at home to FSV Mainz 05 last time out.

• RB Leipzig are without C. Baumgartner and R. Reitz due to injury.
• Hamburger SV have three players ruled out: A. Rossing-Lelesiit, K. Amoako, and S. Bornauw.
• RB Leipzig hold an advantage in the league table, sitting eighth compared to the visitors in eighteenth.
• Hamburger SV have had seven days of rest, while RB Leipzig played three days ago.

RB Leipzig look better placed to take points from this fixture given their stronger start to the league season and home advantage. While both sides are dealing with injuries and recent form issues, the disparity in their domestic points total suggests the home side holds the edge.

Our records hold no head-to-head history between these two sides.
