Bayern Munich are set to play RB Leipzig at the Allianz Arena on Saturday in the Bundesliga.

A second-half goal from young Dutch midfielder Jurgen Ekkelenkamp proved to be a mere consolation for Hertha Berlin.

RB Leipzig, on the other hand, beat Florian Kohfeldt’s Wolfsburg 2-0 in the Bundesliga. Second-half goals from Hungary international Willi Orban and young Croatian centre-back Josko Gvardiol secured the win for Domenico Tedesco’s RB Leipzig.

Bayern Munich vs RB Leipzig Prediction

Bayern Munich, as expected, sit at the top of the league table, and look set to win the Bundesliga comfortably once again. Their efficiency and ruthlessness should be appreciated more.

RB Leipzig, on the other hand, are 6th in the league. It has been an inconsistent season for the club, with a poor start to the campaign seeing the removal of manager Jesse Marsch. They seem to have hit good form under Domenico Tedesco, though.

Bayern Munich should win.

Prediction: Bayern Munich 3-1 RB Leipzig
