Best Tip: RB Leipzig to win

As training goes on this week and the RB Leipzig players ready themselves for this fixture, the bookmakers are predicting a victory for them. The odds and our pre-match stats below suggest the same, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) data we take advantage of in our predictive algorithms. The Red Bull Arena has rarely been an easy place to go for Köln in the past, and we expect more of the same come Saturday evening. A win / draw / win home win is our tip.
