Leipzig vs. Young Boys Preview (What To Know Before Betting)

Leipzig vs. Young Boys

RB Leipzig is set to host Young Boys at the Red Bull Arena in Germany for their last Champions League Group G match this Wednesday.

They clash again for the first time since their encounter on matchday one in September, where Die Roten Bullen triumphed with a 3-1 win in Switzerland, marking the sole prior meeting between the two sides.

Leipzig heads into their final group-stage match already securing a spot in the last 16, amassing nine points from the initial five fixtures. However, their bid for the top spot in Group G slipped away with a 3-2 loss to Manchester City two weeks ago.

Despite holding a surprising two-goal lead at half time in the Etihad Stadium, Leipzig couldn’t maintain it, resulting in a turnaround by the Champions League holders in the second half. As a result, Marco Rose’s team is guaranteed to finish second in Group G.

Following that setback, Leipzig rebounded with consecutive victories in the Bundesliga – a 2-1 win at home against Heidenheim and a 3-2 away triumph against 10-man Borussia Dortmund last weekend, featuring an own goal from Ramy Bensebaini and goals from Christoph Baumgartner and Yussuf Poulsen.

What to remember – Leipzig vs. Young Boys

In this fixture, both teams are playing for pride, aiming to conclude the group stage positively. Young Boys, eager for revenge after their previous loss to Leipzig, adds an extra layer of motivation.

In seven of Leipzig’s last eight home wins in the Champions League, both teams found the net. We anticipate a similar scenario, with the German hosts likely to outscore their opponents once again, even if Marco Rose opts to make several changes to his lineup.
