RB Leipzig

The Red Bulls have improved a lot this season. They are only four points below Bayern Munich. Christopher Nkunku is in great form for Leipzig this season despite the World Cup miss because of injury. He has 13 goals in the Bundesliga, which is only one goal behind the top goal scorer (Fullkrug). Leipzig are coming off a big 3-0 win over Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.

Manchester City FC

Manchester City are still unbeaten in the Champions League this season. The Citizens have conceded only two goals in six matches in the group stage, and they scored 14. Manchester City drew with Nottingham Forest on Saturday, which gives Arsenal a big chance of running away with the title race. Haaland is the top goalscorer for Man City in the Champions League with five goals, but his recent form is far from his best.

Leipzig vs MC: H2H

Red Bull Leipzig and Manchester City have only had two encounters, and they were in 2021. Each team had a win at home in their group in the Champions League. The Citizens qualified as first in that year, while Leipzig came in third (PSG was second) and went to the Europa League.

  • Leipzig 2-1 Man City (7 December 2021)
