Where they stand

Leipzig sit 32nd in the table with no points from one match, having lost their opener. A win here would lift them to three points from two, while defeat would leave them pointless from two. PSV's opening draw leaves them on one point from one; victory would take them to four from two, a draw to two.

The market implies a Leipzig win at just under 62 per cent, with the draw and a PSV victory each carrying a shade over 19 per cent. That confidence sits against Leipzig's recent domestic form: two wins from their last five matches, sandwiched between three defeats. PSV have won three of their last five, drawn one and lost one.

Recent meetings

No previous meetings between the two are recorded, so there is no pattern to draw on. Leipzig's two recent wins have been emphatic, 5-0 and 6-0, but those came either side of a 0-2 reverse. PSV's sole defeat in their last five was by a single goal, 2-3, and they have won three times in that span, including a 3-1 victory and a 4-1 win.
