RB Leipzig vs Hertha Berlin Prediction

 There was probably no more impressive team than Leipzig at the weekend when they won 5-0 at Mainz (who play Hoffenheim tonight) and their margin of victory could have been doubled such was the fluency of their attacking moves. That win followed a surprise 1-1 draw with Freiburg in their first game following the lockdown and ensured the East German club remain unbeaten in competitive action since early February. It is also worth noting that just two goals have been conceded by Leipzig in their latest nine competitive matches.

However, facing Hertha Berlin will be no easy task as the visitors have responded positively to the appointment of the much-traveled Bruno Labbadia as manager. 3-0 and 4-0 victories have been recorded since the resumption of activities, the latter of which was when producing a dominant second-half display as they hosted the Berlin derby on Friday evening. The capital city team were close to the Bundesliga relegation zone prior to the recent lockdown but have now secured a comfortable mid-table berth with those victories.

Leipzig will start overwhelming favourites for this game, but the visitors will be no pushovers based on their latest form. Hertha will have gained confidence from those victories and they have also scored twelve goals in their last four matches. Goals are anticipated in this game but with the hosts generally accepted as a more consistent outfit, the first of our Leipzig vs Hertha Berlin tips is for a home win with Both Teams to Score.

Leipzig to Win and Both Teams to Score – 6/4 with bet365.

 

RB Leipzig vs Hertha Berlin Correct Score Prediction

• 1-1 draw – 10/1
• Leipzig win 1-0 – 9/1
• Leipzig win 2-0 – 15/2
• Leipzig win 2-1 – 15/2
• Leipzig win 3-1 –   9/1
• Hertha Berlin win 2-1 – 22/1

A rejuvenated Hertha Berlin are expected to prove a threat to Leipzig’s current nine-match unbeaten sequence and they have won four times on the road since mid-December. Veteran striker Vedad Ibisevic has also netted in the last two games and will hope to maintain this momentum, but the Hertha players have generally lacked consistency for most of the season and only one visiting German team has won at the Red Bull Arena this term.

Hosts Leipzig will be wary of the dangers posed by their visitors but their performance on Sunday was particularly impressive against a Mainz team which never became downhearted. Head Coach Julian Nagelsmann has instilled a work ethic into his players with an ability to win the ball from opponents and with several options in attack. Hertha are likely to provide sterner opposition than Mainz but the next of our RB Leipzig vs Hertha Berlin betting tips is for a 2-1 home win at odds of 15/2 with Bet365.

RB Leipzig to win 2-1 – 15/2 with bet365.

 

RB Leipzig vs Hertha Berlin First Goalscorer Tip

• Timo Werner – 21/10
• Patrik Schick – 9/2
• Yussuf Poulsen – 9/2
• Dani Olmo – 11/2
• Marcel Sabitzer – 11/2
• Vedad Ibisevic – 17/2

When Timo Werner opened the scoring for Leipzig in the 5-0 defeat of Mainz, he ended a personal goalscoring drought dating back to February. In scoring another two goals, his odds for scoring anytime in this match shortened significantly and the rumours linking Werner with a transfer to Liverpool got even stronger. Yet he remains a decent price to repeat his First Goalscorer performance in a game which is expected to be a closer affair than the weekend contest. Werner has also scored 24 league goals this season bettered only by Robert Lewandowski in the Bundesliga goalscoring charts for this term.

Therefore, our third and final bet is for Timo Werner to be the first Goalscorer.

Timo Werner to be First Goalscorer – 21/10 with bet365.
