Bundesliga 2022-23: FC Koln vs RB Leipzig: Predicted lineup, injury ... (Khel Now)

FC Koln host RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga on Saturday at the RheinEnergieSTADION. Here are the previews for both the teams.

Marco Rose’s side are unbeaten in the all competitions since September 2022, with a record of 17 wins and 3 losses since their last loss. Having sealed a free summer move to league leading rivals Bayern Munich, in the January 2023 transfer window, according to the Kicker, he’s matched the latest display with a man of the match effort to lead his side through to the next round. Any attempt to upset the RB Leipzig form train would require him to be at his absolute best this weekend. With an average match rating of 7.39, according to FotMob, he’s amongst the top 25 highest rated players this season, in the Bundesliga, with three assists and a goal notched to his name in 2022/23. They’ll be relying on the likes of Dominik Szoboszlai, and Emil Forsberg to deliver the goods away from home as they look to cope without the side’s top scorer Christopher Nkunku, who’ll be sidelined at the weekend with a knee injury.
