RB Leipzig will return to Bundesliga action this weekend, as they chase a return to winning ways. The Champions League side will be on the road on Saturday, as they travel to Darmstadt, who are looking for a third win this campaign.
Bundesliga Preview
There will be competitive action in the Bundesliga this weekend, as RB Leipzig will be looking to close the gap on the top of the standings. The visitors come into this fixture after being held to successive draws before the international break, but a return to winning ways could leave them just two points off the top of the standings.
Leipzig have been unbeaten since the opening day of the season, winning four of their previous six matches in the Bundesliga. But, a response will be needed from the German giants this weekend, as they were held to a second straight draw before the international pause. Leipzig were disappointing at the Red Bull Arena on their previous outing, as they failed to find a way through against a compact Bochum side.
Darmstadt will have the home advantage in the Bundesliga this weekend, as they look to continue their pleasing start to the new season. The German side will be full of confidence ahead of the restart, as they won each of their previous two matches before the international break.
That was a fine response after going winless through their opening five matches this term, suffering four defeats and a draw. Darmstadt were in fine form in their previous match, as they registered a 2-1 victory on the road against Augsburg. They raced into a 2-0 lead after goals from Tim Skarke and Tobias Kempe, before Augsburg pulled an effort back late in the match.
Darmstadt vs RB Leipzig Head to Head
Leipzig dominates the previous encounters between the sides, as they have picked up five wins from the previous six matches. Over that period, they have scored ten goals, while Darmstadt has found the back of the net on just one occasion.
Darmstadt vs RB Leipzig Prediction
This should be an exciting match between these two sides, but it could be testing to overlook Leipzig’s chances of victory. The visitors have been in fine form since the opening day, and they look to have enough quality to safely secure maximum points on the road against Darmstadt.
