Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with relegation strugglers Paderborn, Leipzig returned to winning ways at the weekend as they defeated Hoffenheim on the road. The Red Bulls quickly got back on course, with the team moving one step closer to securing a top-four finish. Seeing that a win over Fortuna will see them book their place in the Champions League, we are positive that Julian Nagelsmann’s troops are going to adopt an attack-minded approach in the midweek clash.
Even though influential attacker Yussuf Poulsen is sidelined with injury, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts, who welcome key defender Dayot Upamecano back to the starting XI. Fortuna were on the verge of holding Borussia Dortmund to a goalless draw at the weekend, but Erling Haland eventually scored a late winner for Lucien Favre’s team. The visitors must be low on confidence ahead of the trip to Leipzig, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered.
