Why Bet on Leipzig?
Leipzig finished third in the last season of Bundesliga but didn’t pass the group stage of the UEFA Champions League with the giants Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain. Even with the elimination, Leipzig was one of the Champions League clubs to participate in the UEFA Europa League, getting into the semi-finals, but losing to Rangers in the aggregate.
The Spanish forward Dani Olmo is one of the best-renewed players of the team this season, alongside Christopher Nkunku and the defender Willi Orbán. These guys can help Leipzig achieve good things in the Bundesliga and we should keep an eye on their performances.
Nkunku scored the goal against Stuttgart with Dani Olmo’s assist. However, that wasn’t enough to finish the game with a victory. Leipzig will certainly need the connection of its forwards to seal their first win in the Bundesliga.
