Prediction published on 01/03/2023, 17:12  by Daniel Ngulu in Bundesliga Predictions

Borussia Dortmund have a big game at home, a Bundesliga clash against RB Leipzig in the 23rd round of matches. Going into this game, Dortmund have managed 46 points, in second place while Leipzig are fourth on 42 points. The home team knows that three points from this game could see them rise to the top of the league. They have a similar tally of points as Bayern Munich but only goal difference keeps them behind the champions. Across various competitions, Dortmund have nine straight wins. They have won all their matches in 2023, and coming into this game, they have three clean sheets in the last five matches. In seven of their last nine matches, Dortmund have managed to score two or more goals. Six of their last 10 matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

RB Leipzig are not in as good form as Borussia Dortmund, but they will be banking on history, having beaten Dortmund in each of the last three meetings. They beat Dortmund 3-0 in their first leg meeting and come into this game on the back of a 2-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt. That was their third straight undefeated outing but they have two wins in their last five matches. Just like Dortmund, Leipzig have a lot to play for – a win could propel them to third, but a loss could also see them drop out of the top four. Their away run has been impressive in recent weeks, Leipzig recording five wins in the last six matches on the road and they are unbeaten in nine. Four of their last five away matches have had over 2.5 goals.
