Match preview

An RB Leipzig outfit desperate for a return to winning ways are set to act as hosts, in a Bundesliga meeting with Mainz this Saturday, April 1st.

Marco Rose’s troops, for their part, will head into proceedings at the Red Bull Arena in the midst of a concerning recent spell of form.

This comes with Die Roten Bullen, prior to the international break, having fallen to defeat in three of their last four.

After bouncing back from a hard-fought defeat at the hands of Borussia Dortmund courtesy of a dominant victory over Borussia Monchengladbach, Leipzig appeared to have gotten things back on track.

Then, last time out, despite dominating in possession and chances created alike, Rose and co. were put to the sword by relegation-battling VfL Bochum.

Such woes have culminated in Leipzig slipping off the title pace, to the depths of 5th in the table.

Safe to say, then, that a return to winning ways this weekend would come as an altogether timely one for Die Roten Bullen.

In truth, though, such a result is unlikely to prove an easy one to come by.

This comes with upcoming opponents Mainz having enjoyed a more fruitful stretch of results of their own of late.

All told, dating back to January, Mainz have slipped to defeat in just one of their last eight.

This run includes no fewer than five victories, too, most notably at the expense of Bayer Leverkusen and Borussia Monchengladbach in successive gameweeks.

In their final pre-international break outing, meanwhile, Die Nullfunfer showcased their fighting spirit, in battling back to clinch a share of the spoils against Freiburg courtesy of Kevin Onisiwo’s equaliser a full five minutes into injury time.

Now back inside the top half of the table, Mainz will therefore make the trip to the Red Bull Arena quietly confident in their chances of emerging with something to show for their efforts.

And, owing to Leipzig’s heavy favourite status with the bookmakers, backing the visitors to secure precisely that on Saturday may well be worth a punt.
