THE KEY STATS
- RB Leipzig have won three of their last four Champions League group stage matches at home (L1).
- RB Leipzig have only failed to score in one of their previous 20 Champions League group stage matches at home.
- RB Leipzig have scored two or more goals in eight of their last 11 Champions League matches.
- Lois Openda has scored in seven of RB Leipzig’s nine home matches in all competitions this season.
- Young Boys are aiming to win successive Champions League group stage matches in the same edition of the tournament for the first time.
- Young Boys are without a win in their previous eight Champions League group stage matches away from home (D2 L6).
THE PREDICTION
Coming off the back of having won each of their last four home games in all competitions, confidence and expectations will be high within the RB Leipzig camp ahead of this one, as they aim to finish the group stage on a high. Under Marco Rose, the Bundesliga outfit have made the Red Bull Arena a real fortress and when taking into account the free-scoring nature of their squad, it’s hard to see Young Boys being able to keep them out, even if RB Leipzig were to rotate personnel. Even an under-strength home side should be able to dominate across 90 minutes and fashion plenty of opportunities, so back a comprehensive RB Leipzig win over Young Boys.
TIP: RB LEIPZIG TO WIN
