RB Leipzig vs Hamburger SV prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-10-17 13:30.
[p]RB Leipzig have a perfect home record in the Bundesliga this term, while visitors Hamburg are yet to even score on the road in the league.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Early fears of another underwhelming Bundesliga campaign for Leipzig following their opening day 6-0 defeat to Bayern Munich have dissipated, as they went into the international break unbeaten across their last five league games following a 1-1 draw at Dortmund (W4, D1). The Red Bulls, who ended matchday six in third place and five points behind leaders Bayern, will look to pick up where they left off here having lost just one of their last seven home league games (W4, D2), including winning both this term by two-goal margins. Beating Cologne 3-1 in their last home match also extended their streak of never losing against a newly-promoted Bundesliga club to 37 matches (W32, D5).[/p]
[p]Hamburg started the season poorly, failing to score in their first three league games (D1, L2) but have since improved to position themselves in mid-table. Both of their wins came across the last three matchdays (D1), but as they were also both at home, the Red Shorts are still to land any significant blows on the road. It’s an issue they’ll need to work on if they’re to maintain their strong league placing as they’re the only team in the division yet to score away from home in the Bundesliga this term (D2, L1).[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Leipzig have won four of the six previous H2Hs (D1, L1), the first and last of which were by the same 4-0 scoreline.[/p]
