RB Leipzig form and stats

It's not happening yet for RB Leipzig on their Bundesliga travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Leipzig seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

There might be some fixture complaints from Leipzig as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Champions League match against Manchester City (3-6). Midfielder Christopher Nkunku was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.83. Nkunku scored three goals. As you can tell from the result, the match against Manchester City was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 9 goals, will the fun continue today? Mixed emotions for Leipzig's Christopher Nkunku who got on the scoresheet three times against Manchester City, but still walked off the pitch defeated.

A 1-4 loss hosting Bayern München before that.

0 goals so far away for RB Leipzig, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last eight meetings: two - two - four (Köln wins - draws - RB Leipzig wins). As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two had two or less.
