Leipzig vs Paderborn Prediction 

After winning 4-2 at Koln on Monday evening, Leipzig maintained their third position in the Bundesliga table but despite their free-flowing football at times, their defence was breached twice for the second successive match. The East German club are now unbeaten in eleven competitive games but return to the Red Bull Arena where they have drawn their last three domestic contests and where just one clean sheet has been registered in nine Bundesliga fixtures.

Visitors Paderborn will arrive at the venue with confidence badly dented after suffering a 6-1 home defeat by Borussia Dortmund in their latest match despite a goalless first half. Yet the Bundesliga basement team had drawn their three previous games and have produced some decent performances on the road this season. Paderborn squandered a three-goal lead at Borussia Dortmund before conceding a very late goal to share the points, while another late strike condemned the team to a 3-2 loss at Bayern Munich back in February.

Leipzig will justifiably start overwhelming favourites for this game, but Paderborn will be eager to erase the memory of that second-half collapse in their latest match. Having the proven ability to raise their game at times against quality opposition, Paderborn could test a suspect Leipzig test, but the visiting team will be vulnerable against a team with so much talent in attack. There could be a few goals scored in this game and the first of our Leipzig vs Paderborn bets is for a home win with Both Teams to Score.

Leipzig to Win and Both Teams to Score – 5/4 with bet365.

 

Leipzig vs Paderborn Correct Score Odds & Prediction

• 1-1 draw – 16/1
• Leipzig win 1-0 – 12/1
• Leipzig win 2-0 – 15/2
• Leipzig win 2-1 – 10/1
• Leipzig win 3-1 –   9/1
• Paderborn win 2-1 – 40/1

Although Paderborn have participated in two scoreless draws in away action since the resumption of the Bundesliga, they had netted in five of seven previous games on their travels. Victories were also claimed at Werder Bremen and Freiburg during December and January, and they have lost just twice in their five latest fixtures on the road. However, visiting Leipzig represents another significant challenge following their heavy loss against Borussia Dortmund.

Hosts Leipzig will hope to win a first Bundesliga home match in four attempts while Schalke are the only visiting German team to claim three points at the Red Bull Arena this term. It is also worth noting that Leipzig have scored in every domestic home fixture this season and could once again expose the opposition defence. With the reverse fixture ending in 3-2 away victory, more goals could follow in this game and so the next of our Leipzig vs Paderborn fixtures is for a 3-1 home win at odds of 9/1 with Bet365.

Leipzig vs Paderborn First Goalscorer Odds & Betting Tip

• Timo Werner – 15/8
• Patrik Schick – 9/2
• Dani Olmo – 5/1
• Marcel Sabitzer – 5/1
• Christopher Nkunku – 11/2
• Dennis Srbeny – 14/1

Having netted 25 Bundesliga goals already this term, it would be tempting to select Timo Werner as First Goalscorer in this game or the much more prohibitive odds of Anytime scorer. However, in a team blessed with much goal-scoring potential, Patrick Schick has also proved his worth in attack this term. He opened the scoring in the reverse fixture while also netting the first Leipzig goal in their win at Koln and the March 1-1 home draw with Bayer Leverkusen.

Therefore, at better odds than Timo Werner, our third and final bet is for Patrick Schick to be First Goalscorer.

Patrick Schick to be First Goalscorer – 9/2 with bet365.
