We would see the German champions in action this Saturday as they travel to the Red Bull Arena to play RB Leipzig this weekend. Read on for our expert tips and predictions.

A Goretzka goal separated both sides the last time they met as the Bavarians picked up all three points. With that victory, RB Leipzig still hasn't won beaten the Bavarians since 2018- a run that has spanned across seven games.

Nagelsmann returns to Leipzig

Things haven't moved as fast for new coach Jesse Marsch as he leads the side into this game with just three points from their first three games. Having managed to put that opening day loss behind them with a 4-0 thrashing when they took on Stuttgart the week after, they fell short once again to the Mark van Bommel's Wolfsburg who picked up a 1-0 victory against them just before the international break. This has put them behind the pace in the early exchanges and as such, this game against the defending champions is of utmost importance. Would see Leipzig's young talents pick up at least a point?

FC Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann returns to his former home stadium this weekend, alongside Upamecano and Sabitzer with the trio switching allegiance to the Munich-based side. Although we probably wouldn't see both players in action this weekend, the newly appointed Bayern head coach would be at the dugout looking to build upon his side's impressive performance just before the international break. A Robert Lewandowski hattrick alongside a goal each from Musiala and Muller made sure of the victory in their most recent game against Hertha Berlin. It's now seven points from a possible nine for the defending champions who sit in third with just two points separating them from the league leaders.

RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munich Prediction: 1-2

RB Leipzig's talented squad should certainly give the Bavarians a tough time and with the visitors missing a couple of first-choice defenders, we at least expect them to make Neuer's net bulge. In the grand scheme of things, however, we don't see them toppling the defending champions who should just about do enough for maximum points.
