LiontipsHolstein - Leipzig. Forecast (odds 2.85) and bets on the Bundesliga match
Command Analysis
Current form
Holstein is one of the main contenders for relegation. In 12 rounds played, Marcel Rapp charges have earned only five points, with which they occupy the penultimate place in the table. Behind them is only Bochum, which has two points. The team from Kiel won its only victory on its home field against Heidenheim (1:0). They were unable to build on that success, as they then suffered three defeats in a row with a total score of 2:8. In the last round, Holstein failed to cope with the far from formidable St. Pauli away (1:3).
Disqualifications and injuries
Kleine-Beckel, Erras, Becker and Bernhardsson are all out due to injury, while Knudsen and Schulz are questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- Holstein have been behind in the first half in their last three matches
- Holstein have conceded first in seven of their last eight Bundesliga matches
Tentative lineup: Weiner - Ivezic, Johansson, Geschwill - Porat, Gigovich, Remberg, Holtby, Puhacz - Skrzybski, Harres.
Current form
Leipzig ended a three-game losing streak this week. In the 1/8 finals of the German Cup, the Bulls won a confident 3-0 victory over Eintracht on their home field. Undoubtedly, such a success can give the players confidence in their own abilities. In the Bundesliga, Marco Rose men have not won in four rounds in a row and have already fallen to fourth place, although not long ago they were Bayern main pursuers. In the last round of the championship, Leipzig suffered a crushing 1-5 defeat at home to Wolfsburg.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bitshiabu, Lukeba, Raum, Ouedraogo, Elmas, Simons and Poulsen are all out today due to injury.
Interesting trends for betting
- In 15 of Leipzig last 18 away matches in the Bundesliga, there has been a bet on the exchange of goals scored
- The Bulls have not lost in 10 of their previous 12 away matches in the championship – seven wins and three draws
Estimated line-up: Gulácsi – Gertruyda, Orban, Klosterman – Henrichs, Haidara, Baumgartner, Vermehren, Nusa – Openda, Šeshko.

12.00Tip and bets
During the week in the Cup, Leipzig broke the losing streak and is quite capable of building on its success. However, the upcoming opponent is not only significantly inferior in class, but is also in a decent decline, having lost in the previous three rounds, conceding eight goals. We do not think that Holstein in its current position is ready to put up a decent fight against the Bulls even at home.
Our prediction is a Leipzig victory with an Asian handicap (-1) at odds of 1.85
Bet on total
Despite recent setbacks, Leipzig remains one of the best teams in the Bundesliga in terms of defense, as evidenced by only 14 goals conceded. We expect in the forecast that, as with Eintracht, the team will play to zero today.
Second bet - Holstein will not score with odds of 2.85
Betting on fouls
Note that in seven of their last eight Bundesliga away games, Leipzig have committed more fouls than their opponents. Accordingly, we recommend another betting option.
Prediction: Leipzig win by fouls with odds of 2.37
