RB Leipzig in a duel against Hamburger SV: The acid test of the return!
On Saturday, October 18th, the teams from RB Leipzig and Hamburger SV will face each other in the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig. It's the 7th matchday of the Bundesliga and the omens could hardly be more exciting. RB Leipzig, having started the season successfully, would like to further consolidate their positive form with four wins and one draw from their last five games. The club is currently in third place with 13 points after six matches - right at the top is leader Borussia Dortmund, against whom they recently played a 1-1 draw.
In contrast, Hamburger SV has made its return to the Bundesliga quite challenging. After a seven-year absence from the top German league, HSV is currently in 9th place, with a form that is considered mixed. However, the last game against Mainz 05 ended with a pretty clear 4-0 win, which should give the team new momentum. This victory could encourage the players to prove themselves in Leipzig without pressure.
Direct comparison and forecasts
With a home advantage and great self-confidence, Leipzig goes into the game as favorites. The predictions point to a clear 4-0 win for the hosts. In particular, the return of Yussi, an RB legend, could provide additional motivation on the pitch, even if his playing minutes are still uncertain.
Live broadcast and viewer information
Fans who want to follow the game live can look forward to the broadcast on Sky Sport Bundesliga, which starts at 3:30 p.m. Preliminary reporting will also be offered from 2:00 p.m. The game is commented on by Hansi Küpper. The Sky Go app is also available for Sky customers, while the streaming service WOW will also show the game with a live sports subscription. However, only a few Bundesliga games are available on free TV this season, which is why the majority of viewers have to concentrate on the paid channels.
Overall, the duel between RB Leipzig and Hamburger SV promises to be an exciting event. While Leipzig are hoping for another home win, HSV can play with a relaxed style of play without pressure. One thing is certain: exciting football can be expected at the Red Bull Arena.
