Form guide
RB Leipzig are a tale of two halves. At home they have won all four games this season without conceding: 3-0 against Gladbach, 5-0 against Hamburg, 6-0 against Eintracht Frankfurt and 1-0 against PSV. Away from home they have lost all five, including 6-1 at Bayern Munich last weekend and 4-1 at Real Madrid on Wednesday.
Elversberg are sixth in the Bundesliga with ten points from six games. Their games have been wild: they won 3-2 against Leverkusen, 4-3 at Gladbach and 4-3 against Augsburg last time out, and lost 2-1 to Bayern. Their only quiet games were a 0-0 at Schalke and a 1-0 defeat at Union Berlin.
Head-to-head
We found no previous top-flight meeting between the two clubs.
Team news
Leipzig are without Ouédraogo, Guiu and Baumgartner. Elversberg have four players out and three doubts, including defender Gyamerah.
Our prediction and why
Our main tip is over 1.5 goals. Leipzig have scored 15 in four home games, and Elversberg's games average almost four goals. Leipzig should bounce back at home after two heavy away defeats.
Other bets to consider
Over 2.5 goals is a bigger-odds option. All three of Leipzig's home league games had three or more goals, as did four of Elversberg's six. It carries more risk, so it is rated 73%.
