RB Leipzig need a sense of achievement. VfL Wolfsburg could be an opponent that brings calm to the Saxon club.

Leipzig (dpa) -

RB set a club record?

RB can set a club record with a win against VfL Wolfsburg. Coach Marco Rose's team have been unbeaten in twelve Bundesliga home games. The club record from the 2019/2020 season stands at 13 games, back then under coach Julian Nagelsmann.

Return of the first Bundesliga coach

Ralph Hasenhüttl is the first Leipzig Bundesliga coach to return to the Red Bull Arena. The Austrian was RB coach from 2016 to 2018. With 67 points - a club record to this day - the team finished runners-up in their very first season in the top flight.

Crack the 100 this time around?

Luck at the fourth attempt? Coach Marco Rose is still waiting for his 100th win as a Bundesliga coach. Most recently, there has been one draw and two defeats in the league. Rose won 33 times with Mönchengladbach and 22 times with Borussia Dortmund. Leipzig have won 44 times in the Bundesliga so far.

Wolfsburg arrive with renewed confidence

Wolfsburg have not lost in their last five competitive matches and have conceded just two goals - compared to 13 in the five matches before that. The club from Lower Saxony have also been particularly successful on their opponents' pitches. In five away games, they scored twice as many points as in the six home games (10:5).

Nusa as a beacon of hope

Antonio Nusa is RB's second-highest scorer after Lois Openda with two goals and three assists. The Norwegian scored all of his goals when RB took the lead.
