Top Bundesliga predictions for Monday
The model is leaning under 3.5 goals in Monday's match between FC Koln and RB Leipzig. RB Leipzig has been extremely inconsistent in its most recent outings. The Red Bulls dominated Mainz by a final score of 5-0 last Sunday before recording a disappointing draw at home against Hertha Berlin on Wednesday. RB Leipzig features one of the most potent offensive attacks in Germany, however the Red Bulls have scored more than one goal just twice in their last five Bundesliga matches.
FC Koln, meanwhile, is coming off a poor performance against Hoffenheim on Wednesday, losing by a final score of 3-1. FC Koln, who currently sits in 11th place in the Bundesliga standings, has also recorded five or less shots on target in four of its last five games. In addition, RB Leipzig bolsters a suffocating defense that has given up just four goals in its last seven Bundesliga fixtures, one of the main reasons the model is leaning towards the under on Monday.
