Leipzig and Union will meet in the second game of the German cup semi-final.

In other words, Leipzig made it to the semi-finals not only of the German cup but also of the second most important European cup, while the Bulls are third in the national championship, three points ahead of Freiburg and two points ahead of Bayer, who were beaten in the last round. In the Bundesliga, Leipzig and Union have played five matches and only one encounter in this tournament was inconclusive, with all the others being drawn by TO (2.5). In a cup match, you have to make allowances for results, especially considering the stage, but we are expecting two goals from the opponents. After 3-0 against Hoffenheim at home, we doubt that Union will have any chance of success in the away game. The Bulls played five official matches in two tournaments in April. In the Europa League, Leipzig were stronger than Italy's Atalanta in a two-round clash, in the Bundesliga, RB thrashed Dortmund, and Hoffenheim, were stronger than Bayer in an away game. Leipzig and Union will meet in the second game of the German cup semi-final. The match will show whether the know-it-alls are right or not, but, indeed, Tedesco's team looks scarier in the second part of the season than even Bayern.
