RB Leipzig vs. Liverpool Match Analysis and Prediction

After a poor run of form in the Premier League, Liverpool turns their attention to the Champions League last 16 ties against RB Leipzig. The match schedules for Tuesday at Red Bull Arena with kickoff at 11 pm.

It represents the first competitive meeting for both sides held at a neutral venue due to coronavirus restrictions. Liverpool will be looking to take advantage of Leipzig’s lack of a home fixture in their two-legged tie.

There have been many changes for both teams since both teams were in the last Champions League action in December. However, both teams are in current forms when it comes to their respective leagues.

Liverpool might have handed Manchester City a gate pass for the Premier League title after their 3-1 loss to Leicester City. On the other hand, RB Leipzig registered their fourth consecutive win in the Bundesliga following a 2-1 win over Augsburg last weekend.

Since their final group game, the six-time European champions have won just five of their last 15 games across all competitions. It is a stretch of six losses, including each of their last three outings.  Their loss to Leicester puts the side 13 points adrift of league leaders City who has one game in hand.

Since their infamous win over Manchester United, Hansi Flick has lost only twice in 13 games across all competitions with nine clean sheets.
