Leipzig are going well domestically as they are fourth in the Bundesliga, but they are 30th in the league phase table.
Their away form has let them down, but on home soil, they have been perfect.
Red Bulls manager Martin Demichelis is also a familiar name to Man City having played for them, and it is safe to say he has had a decent start after replacing Bournemouth-bound Marco Rose.
The Argentine may be without Maxime Esteve, who missed Leipzig's win at Schalke, but the hosts have no other concerns in their squad.
Antoine Semenyo continues to miss out for Man City, and other players need to step up after a turn of form.
The Cityzens are now winless in three games in normal time in all competitions (D1, L2), having beaten Brighton on penalties in the Carabao Cup.
The Seagulls got their revenge over Enzo Maresca's men though, and so they have fallen behind Arsenal in the Premier League table.
In terms of the Champions League, they are in a decent spot having collected six points from a possible nine, with their only defeat at home to reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain.
