THE PREDICTION
Failure to break down a stubborn Schalke 04 last time out means that Niko Kovac’s Wolfsburg remain winless after three games of this season’s Bundesliga. Their prospects of picking up three points normally wouldn’t be seen as high away to RB Leipzig, but like the visitors, Leipzig are also yet to win in the league, accruing just two points. However, Leipzig’s only home league match played so far saw their game-plans scuppered by the first-half sending off of Dominik Szoboszlai and the expectation is that the outcome would have been different had they kept 11 players on the pitch for the duration of their 2-2 draw with Koln. It’s hard to see Leipzig losing further ground on the Bundesliga pace setters when taking into account the quality within their squad, so back a home victory in this one.
