Important game for the German team that needs to win and see what happens in the game between PSG and Manchester Unites since the group is like this.
Leipzig has had a very difficult group, even so I think it is up to them to get into the next round, and the first step is to win in Turkey. The German team is at a fairly good level, you just have to look at the Bundesliga table to see them 2nd with 20 points out of 27 possible, only 2 behind Bayern Munich.
Why did I enter the final break, apart from the simple victory being too low? Well, because this next weekend they face Bayern at the Allianz Arena, so it would be great to achieve a more or less comfortable victory here without suffering, without much wear and tear and thinking about Bayern. For this, it is important to you that they go out onto the field with clear ideas and with an offensive plan that advances them on the scoreboard to be able to play at leisure.
We are going to review a few numbers from both teams, and we start with the Turks who do not arrive here with good results, and they are conceding many goals.
They come from drawing 3-3 in their field against the second to last, who scored all 4 goals in the second half. Before that defeat 4-1 in Manchester, where the premises were winning 3-0 before the rest. Before that they visited Besiktas who won 3-2, with a 2-0 result in the first half. The day before they beat Genclerbirligi 2-1, which is second to last, and they went 0-1 winning at halftime.
As we can see they are not going out to the field very plugged, rather they are coming out cold and it is costing them early goals, and that against a team that attacks as well as Leipzig because it can happen to them again.
The Germans come from winning 2-1 at Bielefeld, winning 1-0 at halftime. Before they lost 1-0 in Paris, something understandable of course. Before that in bundesliga 1-1 with Eintrach and 3-0 with Freiburg (1-0 at halftime).
They have achieved 6 league victories and 5 of them have also been winning at halftime. In Champions only against this same team he would have been successful, since they won 2-0 with both goals before minute 20.
Taking these numbers into account, what is being played here and the fact of visiting Bayern this weekend make me confident that they will win, and with an advantage in the first 45 minutes.
