Bundesliga Betting Preview: RB Leipzig vs St. Pauli
Third-placed RB Leipzig clash with second-from-bottom St. Pauli at Red Bull Arena, with kick-off set for 09:30 on Saturday 9 May.
Leipzig are likely to beat St. Pauli and we think there’s merit in backing the favourites at -1.5 on the Asian Handicap at -116. It’s well within their capability to claim a victory by two goals or more here.
RB Leipzig have won four home games on the bounce. Away at BayArena in their last game, they were beaten 4-1 by Bayer Leverkusen. The Red Bulls had 45% possession and totalled five shots on target, with Christoph Baumgartner scoring the goal.
St. Pauli have been defeated in back-to-back Bundesliga games. They were recently beaten at home to Mainz 05 by a 2-1 scoreline at Millerntor-Stadion. Alexander Blessin's team had 51% possession and managed three shots on goal, with Abdoulie Ceesay finding the net.
