Best Tip: RB Leipzig to win

A Bundesliga victory in front of their own fans for Ole Werner's RB Leipzig team win in the win / draw / win market is our prediction. Stats suggest they have what it takes, and they should have too much for their opponents. The odds from the bookies suggest the same, and when that happens you've know you're not going against the market. A RB Leipzig win is our recommendation, but we wouldn't expect a whitewash.
