RB Leipzig's Zsolt Löw will make his Bundesliga coaching debut against his former club TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. The 45-year-old played in Kraichgau from mid-2006 to the end of 2008. Leipzig will be his first time as head coach in Germany's top division; Löw was already an assistant from 2015 to 2018. "I'm delighted to be back at the Red Bull Arena. I had three very good years here," said the Hungarian ahead of Saturday's game (3.30pm/Sky).
Leipzig must win to keep their chances of competing in the Champions League alive. The Saxons are currently sixth, three points behind fourth place and also have a significantly worse goal difference than Mainz, who are surprisingly in that position.
