Leipzig vs Liverpool Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Champions League Predictions
German side Leipzig find themselves in unfamiliar territory going into their Match Day 3 Champions League encounter at home to Liverpool. Die Roten Bullen are among the eight teams yet to pick a point after the opening two rounds. As they welcome the Reds for the Wednesday fixture, Leipzig will hope to stem their shaky home run in this competition. Still, bookies’ predictions favor the visiting team to win the match.
Leipzig suffered defeats at Atletico Madrid and at home to Juventus in the first two matches and will hope to slam the brakes on this run here. Domestically, they are doing well and will want to transfer that form here.
On the other hand, Liverpool are enjoying a good run both in Europe and at home. In this competition, they are among the teams with perfect starts after a pair of wins against Serie A sides; AC Milan and Bologna.

Leipzig - Liverpool: Form Analysis
Back in 2021 these two sides met in the Champions League and Liverpool won both matches with identical 2-0 score lines. That was at the round of 16 stage.
Leipzig will have their chance to avenge the losses here, as they also seek to salvage their European campaign. From the opening two rounds, the hosts remain winless, after a 2-1 loss at Atletico Madrid then falling 3-2 to Juventus at home.
This run leaves them with just one win in six Champions League matches – against a weak side in Young Boys. There’s definitely a need to rise, especially with Leipzig doing way better in the Bundesliga.
They claimed a 2-0 away win at Mainz before heading here.
Liverpool have a great record against German teams and beat Leipzig in the last two meetings.
Liverpool are coming here with all going well in their season. They lead in the Premier League and have won both matches in Europe this season. Also, the last time they faced German opposition, it was Leipzig, winning both legs.
Actually, their last seven matches against Bundesliga teams produced six wins and a draw and they are unbeaten in 12. In their last 19 away matches in the Champions League, Liverpool posted 14 wins, four losses and a draw.
Heading into this game, they beat Chelsea 2-1 to stay top of the Premier League. The Reds posted a 3-1 win against Milan, followed by a 2-0 victory at home to Bologna in the first two Champions League rounds.

Leipzig & Liverpool Squad Analysis
Belgian forward Lois Openda has been Leipzig’s most exciting player this season. So far he has scored four times for the club and will fancy his chances here.
Benjamin Sesko has been outstanding too, especially in the Champions League. In the opening two rounds, Sesko scored three times and he will hope to team up with Openda to ease Leipzig’s Champions League woes.
Some good news on the injuries’ front for Leipzig is the return of Benjamin Henrichs and Kevin Kampl.
However, David Raum and Nicolas Seiwald remain sidelined with ankle and groin strains. Assan Ouedraogo is back in training after battling with a knee injury.
Mohamed Salah has two goals in two matches against RB Leipzig.
Liverpool will be banking on more Mohamed Salah magic in this game. The Egyptian scored in both legs when these teams met in 2021.
He is also coming into this fixture on a good run, having scored on Match Day 2. He has five goals and as many assists in the Premier League.
Liverpool will be without goalkeeper Alison Becker for this match as he heals from a hamstring problem. Also ruled out is Harvey Elliot (fracture), who is joined on the sidelines by Federico Chiesa.

Our Leipzig vs Liverpool Prediction
It has been a faulty start to the Champions League for Leipzig, and going by their home form in this competition, things could get worse. They have no win in their opening two matches, while they have three losses in five home games in the competition.
Also, their visitors hold the advantage when it comes to head-to-head comparisons. Liverpool beat Leipzig in both previous competitive meetings between them and have a good away run in Europe.
In their last 11 Champions League matches on the road, the English side wrapped up nine wins. This points in one direction, and our prediction for Leipzig v Liverpool is for Liverpool to win.
Leipzig vs Liverpool - Other Interesting Predictions
Both teams to score.
While Leipzig haven't had the best of runs at home in the Champions League, their scoring form there isn’t in question. In the last 16 home matches in this competition, they failed to score twice.
Only one of those matches, however, returned a clean sheet. A majority of them had over 2.5 goals too. Our other prediction for Leipzig v Liverpool is for both teams to score.
