RB Leipzig have torn teams apart at the Red Bull Arena this season, winning 6-0 and 5-0 at home, and they host a promoted Elversberg side who have made a bright start but tend to concede, kick-off at 2.30pm (UK time) on Saturday.
Anthony Eadson’s RB Leipzig vs Elversberg predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson expects goals at a ground where Leipzig have been ruthless, and fancies their leading scorer to be involved.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Christopher Nkunku to score anytime | 11/10 (Sky Bet) | Nkunku has been Leipzig’s main man with four goals already and is central to almost everything they do at home, where they have been devastating. The Red Bull Arena has staged 6-0 and 5-0 wins this season, and against a promoted Elversberg defence that has conceded 11 times, Leipzig’s leading scorer should find openings. With the hosts expected to dominate possession and territory, 11/10 with Sky Bet for Nkunku to get on the scoresheet looks a fair price on his current form. |
| Neil El Aynaoui over 2.5 fouls | 4/1 (Betfred) | El Aynaoui has started five of Leipzig’s six Bundesliga games in the holding role and has already been booked twice, so he is the man asked to stop Elversberg’s counters whenever Leipzig lose the ball. He has committed six fouls in those five starts, so three in one game needs a busier afternoon than usual, which is why the price is this big. Elversberg won at Borussia Monchengladbach by breaking quickly, and Betfred’s 4/1 is the biggest price around for over 2.5 fouls. |

How RB Leipzig go into the game
Leipzig are seventh but have been a different animal at home, hammering Frankfurt 6-0 and Hamburg 5-0 at the Red Bull Arena. Christopher Nkunku leads the scoring with four, with Antonio Nusa on three.
They come in off a 6-1 loss at Bayern Munich, which shows they can be got at away from home, but in front of their own fans they have been irresistible.
How Elversberg go into the game
Elversberg have made an excellent start to their first Bundesliga season, sitting sixth on 10 points after a home win over Augsburg and victory at Borussia Monchengladbach. Maurice Krattenmacher has caught the eye with three goals.
The promoted side carry a genuine threat but have conceded 11 times, and keeping out a rampant Leipzig on their own turf is a tall order.
RB Leipzig vs Elversberg head-to-head
Elversberg are newly promoted and have no Bundesliga history against Leipzig to call on.
