Julian Nagelsmann’s team didn’t get off to a good start against Mönchengladbach on the weekend. The Elf vom Niederrhein led by goals von Hofmann (6th, foulelfmeter) and Thuram (19th) early with 2:0. Although the bulls had their opportunities through Halstenberg and Olmo (each 8th), as well as Sabitzer (33rd), Kluivert (37th) and again Olmo (45th +1), the Saxons initially did not develop any real goal danger. This changed after the break tea with the quick 1-2 goal by Nkunku (57th). The home team increased the pressure now and earned the 2-2 from Poulsen (67th). The foal elf did not take place after the break. A free kick from Forsberg steered summer to the bar (77.). In the second leg, the highly-deserved 3-2 victory goal for Leipzig fell through a header by Sörloth (93rd). Leipzig is number one in the Bayernjäger table (50 points). The record master has two more counters in his account.
The Nagelsmann-Elf celebrated their fifth consecutive victory in the league and still has every chance of winning the first German championship in club history. The bulls are the best home team in the Bundesliga and are the second safest team in the defensive with 20 goals conceded. The Saxons have won the last four home games in a row.
In the DFB Cup, luck has been on the part of the cops so far. Although RB had to compete away for the first two rounds, they had 1. FC Nürnberg in round one (3:0) and in the second round with league rival FC Augsburg (3:0) also feasible opponents. In the final of the eighteen, the Saxons were allowed to play their first home game in the cup and did not allow the second league player and promotion candidate VFL Bochum a chance (4-0). Defense is also one of the best in ongoing competition without a single goal.
Dominik Szoboszlai and Konrad Laimer are out due to injury on Wednesday against Wolfsburg.

The VFL faced a defensively minded Hertha, who bet on countermeasures and the plan almost went off in the initial phase. In the 10th minute Tousart touched the bar with a direct decrease. Oliver Glasner’s team was visually superior, but could hardly get through the concrete wall. An offside goal from Weghorst was the best opportunity in the first half hour (23rd). Shortly before the break whistle the wolves then deservedly walked through Klünter’s own goal with 1:0 in the front (37th). In the second period, the Old Lady dared to do more and had the huge chance to equalise after just under an hour, but VFL-Schlussmann Casteels held brilliantly against Zeefuik (58th). The Lower Saxony had more room due to the more aggressive tactics of the guests, but the chances were on the opposite side – Cordoba (79th) and Piatek (84th, Post) gave huge chances. Wolfsburg then punished the weak opportunity in the final minutes and ended the game somewhat luckily with a 2-0 victory (89th, Lacroix). In the fourth minute of the replay, Pongracic flew off the field with yellow-red. VFL Wolfsburg ranks third in the table with 45 points.
The Glasner-Elf has been unbeaten for nine Bundesliga games and won six of the last seven Bundesliga matches. For the seventh time in a row, the Lower Saxony remained without a goal. Even in the last four away games there was no conceding goal to complain about. Only FC Bayern is more successful abroad than VFL. Better than the Munich team, however, are the wolves in the defensive (19 goals conceded) – best defense in the upper house.
In the cup competition, there was the only conceded goal in round one at the Fourth League Union Fürstenwalde (4:1). In the two subsequent home games in the second round against second division side SV Sandhausen (4:0) and in the eighteenth final against soon relegated Schalke 04 (1:0), the score was zero in the back.

The DFB Cup Quarterfinal between RB Leipzig and VFL Wolfsburg is completely open. Both teams are really well on their way to the Bundesliga and have been unbeaten for weeks. In addition, the two best defensive rows meet, so we don’t expect to see many goals in the Red Bull Arena in regular play time. In the current cup competition, neither of them met an elf who was on an equal footing and always fulfilled the favourite role. The Bundesliga game ended in the first lap 2:2. Similarly close, we also type this game, only with significantly fewer goals. A decision in overtime or even penalty shootout is very likely. Nevertheless, we believe that at least one goal will fall on both sides, so we recommend for this DFB Cup prediction the goal bets on the market „Hitting both teams? YES”. For this sports betting tip, the online betting providers provide betting odds on average around 1.70.
