On Wednesday, starting at 20:00 pm, the Leipzig – Lyon match will be played in the Champions League group stage, Group G, 2019/2020 edition. The two teams have not met before in European competitions. Leipzig leads Group G, due to the victory in the first round, 2-1 at Benfica. On the opposite side, Lyon started the season only with a draw, score 1-1 with Zenit Saint Petersburg.
Leipzig has gone “clock” so far this season, until the “short circuit” of the weekend, 1-3 with Schalke, even on his own ground. The Germans defeated Benfica in the first round of the Champions League group stage and this success, score 2-1, allowed them to lead the group. The failure with Schalke could “hit” the morale of Julian Nagelsmann’s students, but he must recover quickly.
Lyon is a dangerous formation, with a certain offensive quality, which can “hurt” any defensive. The French have obtained a lot of draws this season, even in the Champions League, and in Ligue 1, they come after the defeat with Nantes, score 0-1 on their own ground. Most likely, both Leipzig and Lyon will manage to score on Wednesday night, and a draw would also thank the French.
PREDICTION: RB Leipzig to win @ 1,62
