Today brings to us another day of the Week 3 of the UEFA Champions League League Stage as RB Leipzig will be hosting Liverpool at the Red Bull Arena Stadium 🏟️ in a thrilling matchup. Both sides are eagerly anticipating to play against each other and battle for the important points to proceed to a better place in this great competition.
RB Leipzig have struggled in the new league phrase format of the UEFA Champions League, having suffered 2-1 and 3-2 losses to Atletico Madrid and Juventus respectively. To compound matters, the German outfit opened the scoring in both those encounters and they'll be desperate to avoid becoming the first side in the competition's history to lose three successive games after netting first should they start fast here against Liverpool.
Despite those prior meetings, this will be Liverpool's first taste of Leipzig, Red Bull Arena, as both those encounters were played at the Pukas Arena in Budapest due to COVID-19 protocols. The choice of venue has hardly been the deciding factor when they played German opposition however, since they've won seven of their last eight UCL fixtures against Bundelisga sides (D1).
As both clubs are about to take the pitch, fans are to expect an intense fight filled with strategy and determination.
