Eintracht is the reigning winner of the UEFA Europa League, allowing them to play in the Champions League. It is difficult to say how they have managed to win the continent's second most crucial club competition since they can be regarded as mid-table at the German Bundesliga level. Last season, the Eagles only finished in 12th place, and they made their debut in the current league with a resounding 1:6 defeat to Bayern. There were two 1:1 draws against Hertha and Koln, and the first win came only last weekend when the Red and Black beat Werder 4:3 to move up to 11th place in the standings.

Leipzig failed last season, but Domenico Tedesco was appointed head coach and produced a fantastic finish. The Bulls broke into the top-four in the Bundesliga and reached the Champions League, the semi-finals in the Europa League, and triumphed in the German Cup, winning the first major trophy's history. It seemed that the first entire season would be even more productive for the Red and Whites. Still, they made their debut in the domestic league with two draws against Stuttgart and Koln (1:1 and 2:2 respectively), then a 1:2 defeat by Union, before last week's 2:0 win over Wolfsburg.

Eintracht and Leipzig are historically balanced, with three wins each, and the most popular outcome for them is a draw, which happened on seven occasions out of 13 games (54%). Now, the most probable outcome seems to be a draw, which is unlikely to upset either of their opponents. So, we suggest betting on a draw for 3.84.

Eintracht and Leipzig are teams that are distinguished by high performance and open football, but in the upcoming match, we should not expect solid goal activity. The reason is that the Eagles and Bulls are about to begin their campaign in the Champions League and will try to be patient in their encounter. They cannot boast of the high productivity of their forwards, although they should be playing effectively according to their names. With this in mind, we suggest betting on a total under 2.5 for 2.315.

While Timo Werner is trying to remember that he can score a lot at the Bundesliga level and Andre Silva is waiting to be replaced by the ex-Chelsea player, Christopher Nkunku keeps scoring. He was the Bulls' leading scorer last season with 20 goals and 13 assists in 34 games. He has already scored five goals in five official matches this season, confirming his excellent form, especially against problematic opponents. In such a situation, we suggest betting on Christopher Nkunku's goal at odds of around 2.40.
