Prediction: 1-3
Leipzig
After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with Freiburg, Leipzig will be looking to return to ways in the Bundesliga when they take on Mainz at OPEL ARENA. The Red Bulls do not want to give up on their title dream, but they would be happy with a top-four finish as well. Anyhow, Leipzig are likely to stick to their attacking style of play against Mainz.
In the first half of the season the Red Bulls outclassed die Nullfunfer 8-0, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the trip to Rhineland-Palatinate. The hosts did well to hold Koln to a 2-2 draw in their first game after the coronavirus break, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Leipzig. Seeing that die Nullfunfer cannot rely on the 12th man effect (no spectators), we are tempted to put our money on the title-chasing side.
