Eagles Look to Extend Record Against Rival
Two of the division’s high flyers, last season’s DFB Cup winner RB Leipzig and the UEFA Europa League champion Eintracht Frankfurt, will play each other on Saturday. You can live-bet on the German top-flight league action by using our sportsbook.
RB Leipzig: Flying-High
Down in the 12th spot in the Bundesliga, Leipzig reached out to a local coach in an effort to reverse its fortunes and got its mojo back under Marco Rose, who oversaw a 12-match unbeaten run in the Bundesliga until Matchday 20’s disappointing home defeat to Union Berlin. No team picked up more points between Rose taking over from Domenico Tedesco on September 2022 and the end of January.
Leipzig immediately bounced back last weekend when it destroyed Wolfsburg on the road, 3-0, adding three more points to its season tally. The hosts are now sitting fifth in the standings, just four points behind leader Bayern Munich.
Better yet, talisman Christopher Nkunku marked his comeback after three months out with an assist from the bench for Konrad Laimer’s goal. On Wednesday, Leipzig managed to hold Manchester City to a 1-1 draw at home in the Champions League thanks to Josko Gvardiol’s superb goal.
Nkunku was on a run of seven goals in seven games before the World Cup break, which included a crucial goal in the famous 3-2 victory over Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League group stages. He has scored 17 times this season, 12 of those in the Bundesliga, so if you’re betting online, you should start backing him to contribute on the scoresheet.
Eintracht Frankfurt: Ups and Downs
A Frankfurt side superbly led by Randal Kolo Muani has netted 42 goals across the first 21 rounds, with the young Frenchman accounting for almost half of them with 10 goals and 10 assists. With 38 points to their name, the Eagles are sitting sixth in the standings, just one point behind Saturday’s opponents RB Leipzig.
Oliver Glasner’s charges are battle-hardened following last season’s UEFA Europa League triumph and have the added experience of Mario Gotze to call on. They bounced back from an interruption of a seven-match unbeaten run in Cologne on Matchday 20, beating Werder Bremen last week 2-0 on home soil.
However, Eintracht suffered in the Champions League, losing 2-0 to Napoli, with star Kolo Muani sent off in the second half. His link-up play with Mario Gotze has also been impressive to watch, and Oliver Glasner will hope that the red card from the Napoli game will not affect his striker’s mindset.
The club will now turn its attention to the domestic league, where it stands just five points behind the leader. The team will miss out on Junior Dina Ebimbe and Nacho Ferri, who are unavailable due to injuries. We love betting on goals, so we will continue to include Eintracht in our Bundesliga picks.

RB Leipzig vs Eintracht Frankfurt Picks and Prediction
The hosts enter this clash as favorites, priced at -145 on the three-way moneyline according to the latest Bundesliga odds, while the goal line is set at 2½.
Under Rose’s guidance, Leipzig has become an organized group that fights for one another, resulting in several superb performances. Its home record is amazing, and it enters this clash full of confidence after the 1-1 draw against Man City. Eintracht’s away record this season is questionable, but it still has the necessary weapons to find the back of the net, so we expect a high-scoring affair.
The Leipzig are listed at -145 in our Vegas soccer lines. This means that if you wager $100 on RB Leipzig, you have a chance to win $69. Eintracht is +375, offering a chance to win $375 on a $100 wager.
The implied probability attached to the betting lines gives RB Leipzig a 59.18% chance to win, with Eintracht Frankfurt at 21.05%.
