RB Leipzig vs Hoffenheim prediction and preview

RB Leipzig arrive into this game on the back of a massive 4-1 win over Werder Bremen at the Weserstadion. A brace from Alexander Sorloth and goals from Dani Olmo and Marcel Sabitzer ensured victory for Julian Nagelsmann's side. Meanwhile, Milot Rashica's second-half penalty for Werder Bremen proved to be just a mere consolation. With just five points separating RB Leipzig in second and Bayern Munich in first in the Bundesliga table, Nagelsmann will be well aware that every game from here on is a must-win if his side are to have an opportunity of winning their first Bundesliga title.

On the other hand, Hoffenheim have struggled for most of the season as they find themselves in twelfth place in the Bundesliga table. Sebastian Hoeneb's side are winless in their previous four league games (1D 3L) and were fortunate to get away with a draw against Bayer Leverkusen in their last game after failing to register a single shot on target. Considering the form of the two teams in the Bundesliga, our RB Leipzig vs Hoffenheim prediction is RB Leipzig 3-0 Hoffenheim.
