RB Leipzig vs Liverpool Preview: Predicted Lineups and Where to Watch and Watch Live
- Ahead of the UEFA Champions League game this midweek, with the movements of both teams, updates on players who are not ready to play, and predictions for the results of the competition.
- Liverpool have won their first two games while Leipzig have lost both of their last two games.
- The Reds have never conceded a goal against Leipzig in three meetings, scoring a total of nine goals.
RB Leipzig are in excellent form in the Bundesliga, unbeaten with five wins and two draws, and are level on 17 points with leaders Bayern Munich, but the competition is quite different, with back-to-back losses to Atletico Madrid and Juventus, leaving them 29th out of 36 teams after two games.
Premier League leaders Liverpool had to struggle quite a bit in the big match last weekend before narrowly beating Chelsea 2-1. In this competition, they have won both games in a row against AC Milan and Bologna to take 6 points and rank 5th in the table at present.

Arne Marco Rose’s side will definitely be without Assan Oudraogo, David Ram, Xaver Schlager and Nicolas Seiwald due to injury problems, while other key players including Benjamin Sesko, Lewis Openda, Xavi Simons and Antonio Nusa are all fit to play.

Predict the possibility and results of the competition
In the midweek UEFA Champions League game, Liverpool will visit Germany at the Red Bull Arena, home of RB Leipzig. Despite their excellent performance in the Bundesliga this year, they have not been very lucky in European football, losing narrowly in both matches to Atletico Madrid 2-1 and Juventus 3-2.
It is expected that both teams will prepare to set up an attacking game in their preferred style. The away team will focus on keeping the ball and not rushing to find a chance to attack, while the home team will focus on being careful and waiting for an opportunity to open up before using the speed of their attackers to attack. This is where the Reds need to be careful with the speed of the four attackers, Sesko, Openda, Nusa, and Simons.
If they compete one-on-one, Liverpool’s defenders will definitely not be able to keep up. Therefore, Slots must find a way to deal with the home team’s counterattack game. I believe this game will be close and will be a game of alternating attack and defense. If there is an early first goal, no matter which side, the game should be fun to exchange. The game has a high chance of ending in a draw, but if looking for a winner, I still give it to the visitors who may narrowly win again.
Score prediction: RB Leipzig 2-3 Liverpool
