Liverpool FC - RB Leipzig ai prediction 10.03.2021 Champions League

Betting Tip for matchday 2 of the 2020/2021 Champions League between Liverpool FC and RB Leipzig.

Liverpool vs RB Leipzig, UCL 10.03.2021

Liverpool and RB Leipzig travel back to the Puskas Arena in Budapest for the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Wednesday evening.

The Reds lead 2-0 lead from the first leg, which was also held in the same venue, and will hope to put looking to put aside their poor form domestically and book a ticket to the quarter-finals.

We will take a look at Helabet bookie review for our tips for this game.

LIVERPOOL

Liverpool are in terrible form at the moment, incredibly losing six of their last eight matches in all competitions. The only wins in that run came against Leipzig in the Champions League and at Sheffield United in the Premier League.

That Leipzig win was the 2-0 first leg at this very venue which puts them in a good position to move on to the quarters if they can hold onto the advantage. The Reds will be optimistic as the past records show they have never before been knocked out of this competition after winning away from home in the first leg.

Although they are technically not playing at home Klopp and his players are probably happy to be away from Anfield which has been a disaster for them this calendar year. They have lost their last six games there which is their worst run in the club’s history.

RB LEIPZIG

Leipzig were left licking their wounds after gifting Liverpool two glorious goals from their own defensive errors. Despite that, they have shown great mental strength to bounce back from that loss by racking up four wins on the trot.

Bar that loss to Liverpool, Leipzig have otherwise been on an impressive run, winning eight of their last nine matches in all competitions. This run of form has seen them going toe to toe with Bayern in the Bundesliga title race.

LIVERPOOL VS RB LEIPZIG MATCH PREVIEW AND BETTING PREDICTIONS

Liverpool have been poor in their recent outings but they come here with the advantage firmly in their hand. Despite their dreadful form, however, they haven’t conceded a lot of goals. In fact, they have only conceded four goals in their last five outings. The problem is their attack has gone ice cold at the moment. They will need to rely on their defence here to hold on to the advantage from the first leg. We reckon this will be a different Liverpool performance from the one we have been accustomed to. It will be a more conservative approach and therefore we are likely to have fewer goal-scoring opportunities either way. Hence why we are backing Under 2.5 goals @ 2.40 as our first betting tip.

This is likely to be a dogfight to the bitter end. Leipzig will look to get back in the tie while Liverpool, given their problems in the domestic league, have pegged their entire season on this competition. We witnessed seven bookings in the first leg and given the stakes are higher this time, this market is of interest. French ref Clement Turpin who will take charge of this game has sent off six players in 20 games so far this season. 4-6 bookings also @ 2.40 looks solid for our last shout here.
