RB Leipzig – Wolfsburg, DFB-Pokal Prediction

Leipzig managed to do brilliantly and appropriately in their last 2 appearances in the Bundesliga, where they beat 4-0 and 3-0 respectively Fortuna and Hannover. Still, Werner did not even take part against Hannover. Leipzig are out of Europa League, so there is no reason to save their strength and will play at full speed against Wolfsburg and at home they are one of the strongest teams in Germany as their only losses in all competitions are from Salzburg and Dortmund.

Wolfsburg, however, also returns from an extremely important victory against Hertha. Wolves have had some difficulties lately, but remain in the fight for even top 4, where they are at 6 points behind from Leipzig. The greens played very good in their previous two cup games and kicked out Hannover and Elversberg fairly easily before that. Wolfsburg has 4 wins in the last 5 away games.

Leipzig conceded a goal in 5 of their last 6 home games. Wolves in the Bundesliga have not scored a goal in just two games away from home and have scored goals in each of the last 8 away games. Upamecano didn’t take part in the last game and is doubtful for this one. This is the most important defender for the bulls. Leipzig has 4 games in the history of Wolfsburg at home and in all of them they conceded at least 1 goal. However, this is also a match for the cup, so the best prediction for this match is BTTS at 1.65.
