After Real's performance: victory against Darmstadt a must for Leipzig

In the race for the Champions League, a win against bottom club Darmstadt 98 is a must for RB Leipzig. The Saxons will host the team in last place in the Bundesliga on Saturday (3.30 pm/Sky) and, in contrast to Wednesday's Champions League match at Real Madrid, are clearly the favorites. "I like the way we're handling the tasks at the moment. The courage and the desire to defend - I think that's good. We need a lot of energy against Darmstadt," said coach Marco Rose. The 47-year-old only has to compensate for the absence of defender Lukas Klostermann.
