The hosts will look to bounce back after their 1-0 loss against Liverpool.

RB Leipzig will be back in Bundesliga action against SC Freiburg after losing 1-0 against Liverpool in their previous game in the UEFA Champions League. Apart from the recent setback, Leipzig are enjoying a great season so far. They currently sit in second place in the German top flight, level on points with Bayern Munich.

Die Roten Bullen have accumulated 17 points from their opening seven matches. They have five wins and two draws in the league so far.

SC Freiburg on the other hand have been exceptional as well. They are just two points behind RB Leipzig with 15 points from their opening seven games. Manager Julian Schuster took over the team back in March and has completely rejuvenated the squad.

After finishing 10th last season in the Bundesliga, the club are emerging as a big favourite to end up in the UEFA Champions League spots. The game between these two teams is looking very promising as it will feature two of the best German teams going head-to-head against each other.
