Hot tip – BTTS

  • Both Young Boys and RB Leipzig have scored in their last six respective matches in all competitions.
  • The match finished 3-1 to RB Leipzig in the reverse fixture.

RB Leipzig are one of the most entertaining teams in Germany in terms of goals scored and conceded. In their last six matches, they have scored at least once and conceded at least once, which tells its own story of how open they like to play. This should benefit Young Boys who are by far the highest scorers in Switzerland this season.

RB Leipzig vs Young Boys team news

RB Leipzig

RB Leipzig manager, Marco Rose, has a couple of injury concerns ahead of the match with Young Boys. Dani Olmo, Timo Werner, Willi Orban and El Chadaille Bitshiabu are all unavailable while there could be further rotation due to qualification already being secured. As such, the likes of Kevin Kampl and Benjamin Sesko could start the match for the German outfit.

Young Boys

Young Boys have suffered a few serious and significant injuries already this season, with Kastriot Imeri ruled out for the season and Cedric Itten out until the new year. The club's star man, Jean-Pierre Nsame, is yet to score in Europe this season, so will be eager to get one under his belt on Wednesday night to build his confidence ahead of the Europa League knockout stages.

Predicted Lineup

Racioppi – Blum, Camara, Benito, Garcia – Niasee, Ugrinic – Males, Elia, Monteiro – Nsame

Player to watch – Benjamin Sesko

Benjamin Sesko has fallen out of favour at RB Leipzig this season but the big Slovenian is only 20-year-old so time is very much on his side. He will likely get a chance from the start on Wednesday night with Leipzig expected to rotate heavily.
