RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Player Focus
RB Leipzig plays with a 4-2-2-2 formation, which morphs into a 4-4-2 structure out of possession, depending on the work rate, pace, and dynamism of the front two of Loïs Openda and Benjamin Šeško.
The two attackers’ partnership will be crucial for RB Leipzig as they look to get their first win of their Champions League campaign after losing their opening two rounds of fixtures.

Liverpool have started in good form under Arne Slot, and they will look to extend their good run. Slot’s midfield has been the main reason for their good run of form, with the role of Ryan Gravenberch pronounced.
The midfielder will again be central for the Reds as they look to extend their good start to their Champions League bid this season to three consecutive wins.
RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Tactical Analysis
RB Leipzig will approach the match with a pragmatic shape, aiming to contain Liverpool’s attack and giving themselves the platform to attack with pace when they win the ball back.
They will defend with a 4-4-2 and attack with a 4-2-2-2; their fluidity will be crucial in advancing their ability to create chances.

Liverpool’s 4-3-3, which also morphs into a 4-2-3-1 formation when out of possession, will provide the platform for their approach at the Red Bull Arena. Attacking-minded fullbacks will offer width and support the attack, with two attacking midfielders providing support with runs from deep.
RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Prediction
- Football pick: Liverpool to Win
- Odds: 1.84 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: RB Leipzig 0-3 Liverpool
RB Leipzig and Liverpool will both look for the win. Our expert soccer predictions show that the home side, having gone two matches without a win, will be keen for the three points. On the other hand, Liverpool have the pedigree and quality to go all the way and secure the three points.
RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Betting Tip
- Football Pick: Both Teams To Score – No
- Odds: 2.59 (22Bet)
Liverpool have been the best defensive side in the Premier League. Under Arne Slot’s management, the Reds have been built around a well-organized and compact structure, which serves as the foundation for their attacking play.
Given RB Leipzig’s inconsistent form and Liverpool’s current strength at both ends of the pitch, backing Liverpool to win and potentially keep a clean sheet is a solid bet for this encounter.
