Team News

RBL
Aston Villa
  • RB Leipzig are without no fewer than seven players due to injury for the welcome of Aston Villa.
  • Among those is Costello Lukaba, with Lukas Klostermann in line to deputise at the back.
  • Leon Bailey joins Jacob Ramsey on the sidelines having sustained a hamstring injury against Southampton on Saturday.

Prediction

  • RB Leipzig have won back-to-back matches following a six-game winless run as they look to make a late play for the Champions League playoff places.
  • Likewise, Aston Villa have won their last two matches following an eight-game winless streak and they'll look to get their European campaign back on track here.
  • With injury issues on both wings, Villa may struggle in Germany, with RB Leipzig potentially claiming their first Champions League of the season.
