LEIPZIG VS MAN UTD MATCH ANALYSIS
After they put up a good fight in a 3-3 away draw at Bayern Munich that saw Leipzig leading twice, the German outfit will feel confident they can give Manchester Utd a better performance this time than the 5-0 trashing in the reverse fixture, which is Leipzig’s worst ever European result. A lot is at stake for them in this match, as only a win can guarantee them progress to the UEFA Champions League knockout stage. As for Man Utd, a draw will be enough to guarantee Man United progress to the knockouts, although that’s a result the three-time European champions haven’t registered in any of their last seven Champions League away games (W4, L3). On the other hand, a win can secure them a top spot in the group and an easier opponent in the first knock-out round.
Leipzig have a 100% record at home in all competitions this term (W7), which is exceptional form to bring into this clash. They are 2nd in the Bundesliga (21 points), only two points below Bayern. Interestingly, they won their only previous home match against an English side in Europe against Tottenham in March of this year. The German side has a talented manager in Julian Nagelsmann who will make sure that his side has learned their lesson against United at Old Trafford.
As for their most recent match, against Basaksehir, Leipzig squandered a two-goal lead before Alexander Sorloth's stoppage-time goal earned them a thrilling victory at Istanbul Basaksehir to set up a winner-takes-all showdown with United this Tuesday. The win moved Leipzig level on points with PSG and United ahead of the final group game next week, with one side set to drop down to the Europa League.
On the other hand, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side is heading into this match on a positive note, feeling confident after yet another comeback win against West Ham (1-3) in the Premier League. That was their 5th consecutive away league win despite conceding the opener each time – the first time it happened in the Premier League history. It is also a good sign of their mentality on the road, as this is probably the toughest test they have faced yet.
As for their most recent Champions League game against PSG, they left their UCL campaign hanging in the balance as two goals from Neymar and one from Marquinhos helped PSG secure the win at Old Trafford. With Fred’s sending-off, major question marks will hang over Solskjaer after this result. It would have been an obvious decision to replace Fred at half-time, as he looked like an accident to happen whenever he was involved in an incident. It was their fourth defeat in the past seven Champions League home games (W3), as many as in their previous 52 matches before.

Leipzig were beaten by five goals in their only previous meeting with Manchester United in European competitions, with that defeat coming on Matchday 2 in the reverse fixture of the upcoming game.
Manchester Utd have a poor away history in the competition against German clubs, as they have lost both of their last two games on the road against Bayern Munich in 2014, and most recently against Wolfsburg in 2015.
Leipzig have won each of their last three home matches in the Champions League, conceding only one goal in the process, while United have been inconsistent away from home, with a win and a defeat in each of their last six away games in the UEFA Champions League, losing their last such match against Basaksehir last month.
BettingKick’s prediction for Leipzig vs Man Utd match is: Over 2.5 goals

Tucker grew up in London, more precisely in West London. But, unlike many locals, he doesn’t like big and famous teams from that part of the city. Instead, ever since he was a kid, Tucker was passionate for lower divisions. This passion was born when his uncle from Reading took him to the local derby with Aldershot Town when he was 6 and since that moment football was running through his veins. He became a huge fan of the Royals for life, and whenever he could, he goes to Madejski Stadium to enjoy the game. Apart from being a job, his sports knowledge also becomes more than useful when he is betting live on high stakes which is also his passion.
