RB Leipzig vs Juventus prediction: Bore draw in Germany
Key stats
- Our RB Leipzig vs Juventus betting tips take into account that three of the last five Juve games have ended 0-0.
- Both teams have scored in only one of Leipzig’s five Bundesliga matches this term.
- The German side have kept a clean sheet in all three of their home games so far in the 2024/25 campaign.
Correct score prediction: RB Leipzig 0-0 Juventus
Both sides have looked quite solid defensively, but at times lacked attacking spark this term. Two of Leipzig’s last four matches have ended goalless and they’ve not conceded in the Bundesliga since August.
Up against a Juve side that has only let in one goal all season, this should be a tight affair that could end level.

Vlahovic striking just after the break
