RB Leipzig, Recent FormIn their last match RB Leipzig enforced their superiority over Cologne with a 5-1 away win. In that game they had 67% possession and managed 22 attempts on goal, with 8 on target, compared to Cologne who had 10 attempts and 2 on target.
Manager Marco Rose will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 16 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 23 of their 26 games this season, and of the 13 games they have played at home, they've notched up 6 clean sheets.
They have had a good run of form at The Red Bull Arena recently, having won 4 out of their last 6 home games.
Goalscorer Loïs Openda will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 5 goals in his last 6 league matches for RB Leipzig.
Mainz 05, Recent FormMainz 05 will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 2-0 win in their home outing against Bochum. They achieved 51% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Bochum's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
Manager Bo Henriksen will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 14 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 7 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
An away win for Mainz 05 is just a distant memory, having not won on the road in 17 games.
On an individual basis, Jonathan Burkardt will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Mainz 05's last 6 league games.
It ended in disappointment and a 2-0 defeat for RB Leipzig last time they met Mainz 05 in the league, with Die Nullfünfer defying the odds to take the win.
Die Nullfünfer will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against RB Leipzig having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 7 meetings. During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league, RB Leipzig have been unable to break through Die Nullfünfer's defence and find the back of the net.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Mainz has taken all 3 points and has not lost to RB Leipzig in 3 games.
Yussuf Poulsen will be looking to get on the scoresheet for RB Leipzig against Mainz in this one, having netted 3 goals in the previous 5 encounters between the two.
There is only really one injury concern for the RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose ahead of this clash, with Lukas Klostermann (Thigh) missing out, which gives Rose a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Bo Henriksen has a number of injury concerns in his Mainz squad to contend with: Stefan Bell (Heart problems), Josuha Guilavogui (Head), Tom Krauß (Knock), Maxim Leitsch (Groin), Jessic Ngankam (Muscle) and Nelson Weiper (Knee surgery)
