THE PREDICTION

Following their shock 1-4 Champions League thrashing at the hands of Shakhtar Donetsk in midweek, the RB Leipzig hierarchy have immediately pulled the trigger and removed Domenico Tedesco from his role as head coach. This is the second season in a row in which Leipzig has sacked their boss during the campaign, although Jesse Marsch lasted three months longer which perhaps was a factor in this quick decision as Leipzig look to avoid an extended malaise with them sit mid-table in the Bundesliga. Marco Rose has already been appointed as Tedesco's replacement but and will take charge for the first time here against his former club. Borussia Dortmund meanwhile, were comfortably 3-0 winners in the Champions League and will no doubt sense an opportunity to capitalise on the current fragility of Leipzig. On the back of three straight wins and three consecutive clean sheets, Edin Terzic appears to have found the perfect balance between attack and defence at present which should serve them well at the Red Bull Arena. With that in mind, consider backing Dortmund to come out on top although when taking into account that Leipzig still contain numerous quality players within their squad, it would be sensible to do so via the draw no bet market.
