The German Bundesliga gears up for its second part following the winter break, and one of the main dishes will be an excellent game between RB Leipzig and Frankfurt.
The Red Bulls closed the year with a draw against a poor Werder Bremen. That tie cut short a small three-game winning streak and crippled their chance of finishing the year on the podium.
On the other hand, ‘Die Atler’ was on the rise as of late following their dramatic win over Bayern. However, they fell in a pothole and started to recover just before the end of the first part of the season, with two wins in the last three games.

Where Can I Watch it?
Why Bet on RB Leipzig?
The Red Bulls have a record of ten wins, three draws, and three losses. This resulted in 33 points in sixteen matches, accompanied by a goal difference of +21. These are excellent numbers, that could have you battling for the title in many leagues, but they have three remarkable sides in front. First, it’s the surprise of the season: Stuttgart, who just barely managed to finish the year inside the podium, but far ahead, we find Bayern and Leverkusen in a two-horse race for the title.
Whatever the case, if Leipzig maintains this level, it should be more than enough to guarantee another year of Champions League football to build upon. The Good news for them is that new additions Louis Openda (11 goals) and Xavi Simons (7 assists) fell like a glove in the team without needing major adaptation time.
Why Bet on Frankfurt?
‘Die Atler’ has been one of the most competitive German sides in recent years and is, alongside Bayern, the only club with international titles for the central European country this century. After a slow start, the team now boasts 6 wins, 6 draws, and four losses record, being the last team obtaining access to international competitions at 6th place. However, they are tied in points with Hoffenheim and Freiburg, so any slip could take them out.
The Egyptian Omar Marmoush has been the standout point of the team, as he boasts seven goals and three assists in just fifteen matches. Overall, they have a GD of +6, average for a midtable side.
Final betting analysis – RB Leipzig vs. Frankfurt
These two teams have faced just sixteen times (let’s remember that RB Leipzig is a young side with a short history in the first division), and the numbers show great equality. Five wins for the Red Bulls, four for ‘Die Atler’ and seven ties complete the record.
However, Leipzig has won the last two meetings between these teams counting all competitions, by 2-0 and 2-1. In this context, and considering that Frankfurt’s defense has been fragile in their away games, we predict a 3-1 victory for the locals is the most likely result.
Go for a victory for Leipzig at 1.471. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $47.10 for a total payout of $147.10.
