Predictions for Leipzig vs Borussia Dortmund

It has been hard for Leipzig and Dortmund to win in recent weeks. I predict a close match to end in a draw at the end of regulation time.

• Four of Leipzig's last five matches have ended in defeat.
• Six of Leipzig's last seven matches against Borussia Dortmund have ended in BTTS.
• Over 2.5 goals have been scored in Leipzig's last 7 matches against Borussia Dortmund.
• 4 of Dortmund's last 5 matches have ended in BTTS.
• With two draws in 15 matches, Dortmund has an 8-5 advantage over Leipzig.

Form Leipzig

A 2-1 defeat at Borussia Dortmund followed by a dominant 3-0 win against Borussia Monchengladbach has Leipzig in poor form. They have lost four of their previous five matches.

The Champions League campaign of Marco Rose's team came to an end with a 7-0 loss to Manchester City.

In Saturday's 3-0 loss against Mainz, Leipzig had 70% possession, but lost 1-0 to Bochum with 8-2 shots on target.

Injuries & Team News for Leipzig

Péter Gulácsi, Mohamed Simakan, Xaver Schlager, and Christopher Nkunku are injured.

Both Abdou Diallo and Yussuf Poulsen are doubtful.

Form of Borussia Dortmund

After 10 consecutive wins, Borussia Dortmund lost 2-0 in London to exit the Champions League Round of 16 after beating Chelsea 1-0 in the first leg.

After a disappointing 2-2 draw at Schalke, Edin Terzic's team came back with a 6-1 victory over Koln. Sébastien Haller and Marco Reus each scored two goals.

It was 4-0 down to Bayern Munich before late goals to Emre Can and Donyell Malen gave Dortmund some respectability.

Injuries & Team News for Borussia Dortmund

Mateu Morey and Jamie Bynoe-Gittens are injured.

There is doubt about Karim Adeyemi.

my Game Predictions

Both Leipzig and Borussia Dortmund have struggled to win in recent weeks, so I expect a close match and a better game from Dortmund here.
