THE PREDICTION
After falling four points behind in the title race last weekend, RB Leipzig need to keep up the pressure on leaders Bayern Munich ahead of the upcoming showdown between the two sides. Before last Sunday’s draw with Eintracht Frankfurt, the Red Bulls had won their last six Bundesliga matches, conceding just three goals in the process. Arminia Bielefeld have renewed confidence following their impressive 2-1 win at Bayer Leverkusen last Sunday, their first victory in eight matches and their first since Frank Kramer took charge. Leipzig should prove a step too far for the relegation battlers, though, and they remain the second-lowest scorers in the league, so another win to nil for the visitors is a distinct possibility.
