The German international was the protagonist of the first success of CL, 2-1 at Benfica. After that, Leipzig would lose surprisingly, at home, with Lyon, 0-2. We see that, in total, there are four games in a row without a win for Leipzig, but we must also analyze the conditions Рall the disputes were against strong opponents, and Nagelsmann still cannot be based on the whole lot. There were always three, four injured. Schick, Adams, Wolf and Konat̩ will not take part in this duel.

RB Leipzig vs Zenit St. Petersburg Picks
The two teams met in the finals of the 2017/2018 edition, and the Germans moved on after 2-1 at home and 1-1 away. But it is not at all surprising that Zenit has lost in travel. The Russians have given up 7 of the last 10 “out” duels in the Champions League. However, the current offensive urges us to believe in the next prognosis. Leipzig has shown some problems in defense, and the best attack in Russia can take advantage.
Our Prediction: Zenit scores
Odds: 1.44
