Leipzig vs Koln
Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Mainz, Leipzig will be aiming to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Koln on Matchday 4. The Red Bulls continue life without important trio Sesko - Simmons - Openda, but new signings are slowly adapting to the new surroundings. With Xaver Schlager picking up a knock in the last league match, summer signing Ezechiel Banzuzi is widely expected to make his first Bundesliga start with Leipzig this weekend.
The Billy Goats, on the other hand, have been producing excellent performances in the early stages of the season, with the team beating both Mainz and Freiburg, while sharing the spoils with Wolfsburg. Koln, though, are not regarded as good travellers and with Leipzig quickly bouncing back from a massive 6-0 loss to Bayern Munich, home win should be considered. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of Saturday's encounter.
