Match Prediction: Wolfsburg vs. Leipzig
Ralph Hasenhüttl's team remains among the top six most prolific teams in the current championship, but Wolfsburg's scoring feats were mainly in the first half of the season. Now, scoring goals has become much harder: the club has not scored more than once in 7 of their last 9 Bundesliga matches. Moreover, the team has failed to score in three consecutive games, and the last time Wolfsburg had a longer goalless streak was in the 2021/22 season.
Leipzig scored more than two goals for the first time in 10 league matches in the last round. However, the team benefited from an opponent's red card, even though Zsolt Löw's side did not achieve an xG of two goals. Away from home, the club has not scored more than once in 6 of their last 7 Bundesliga games, and in the last 4, they have not managed a single goal.
No more than 3 goals have been scored in 6 of the last 7 head-to-head meetings between the teams in the league. This is another factor supporting the prediction: Total under 3.5 goals
