RB Leipzig will endeavour to claim their third successive win since the international break when they welcome FC Koln to the Red Bull Arena for a Bundesliga clash on Saturday evening.
While Die Roten Bullen are yet to lose on home soil this season, the visitors are still searching for their first away victory.
Indeed, a 3-1 Bundesliga victory away against Darmstadt last weekend was followed just three days later by a win via the same scoreline at home to Red Star, with club-record signing Lois Openda netting four goals across the two fixtures to increase his goal tally for the campaign to seven in 13 games.
Marco Rose's men are on course to secure a top-two finish in Group G of the Champions League, while they find themselves sitting fifth in the Bundesliga table after eight games, three points behind the top four and five points adrift of league leaders Bayer Leverkusen.
Leipzig will welcome a return to the Red Bull Arena this weekend as they are unbeaten in each of their last eight Bundesliga games on home soil, although their last two have ended as draws – not since March/April 2021 have Die Roen Bullen failed to win three successive home league matches.
