The Bundesliga enters its final two gameweeks of the season in what has been an incredible year in Germany’s top flight.
As we approach the end, let’s look at more football predictions where we group together the data to determine the win probability.
This game sees RB Leipzig and Werder Bremen clash with one another at the Red Bull Arena where Leipzig are aiming to secure Champions League football for next season.
They are currently three points clear of the Champions League finalists, Borussia Dortmund, with six points left on the table.
Leipzig will, therefore, need to win here and hope that Dortmund drop points in order to officially secure passage into Europe's elite competition in 2024/25.
However, fate is still in their hands, and they may even aim to track down Stuttgart in third, as the gap there is only four points.
Leipzig have put one foot back into the Champions League for next season after a recent win over Dortmund at the Red Bull Arena.
Lois Openda was back amongst the goals that day, as he scored his 24th Bundesliga goal of the season. He is, however, unfortunately well in the shadow of Harry Kane in the race for the top scorer title.
Benjamin Sesko also bagged a goal that day before Mohamed Saimakan and Christoph Baumgartner netted a finish each of their own.
Sesko was amongst the goals once more in the recent 1-1 draw away to Hoffenheim, as Xavi Simons received a red card which now means he misses this game.
As for Bremen, it's been another topsy-turvy season for them where there have been a few fears of relegation but also little hope of getting into Europe for next season.
The club are currently sitting in 11th in the Bundesliga after a 2-2 draw with Borussia Monchengladbach last time out that saw Nick Woltemade score twice in the second half.
Bremen are ahead of the drop zone by nine points and are safe for another season, while they are within three of the Europa Conference League spot.
However, despite being within touching distance of Europe now, they need many fixtures to go their way in the final two games of the season.
Bremen did get an impressive win over Stuttgart the other week, however, and they also beat Augsburg 3-0 two weeks ago. They are, at the very least, in solid form.
However, Forebet predicts a win for Leipzig and over 2.5 goals.
