Leipzig – One win, three draws and two losses: RB Leipzig’s previous record at VfL Wolfsburg shouldn’t scare the wolves. All the better that Christopher Nkunku (25) will probably be back on the pitch on Saturday (3:30 p.m. / Sky).

94 days after his lateral ligament tear, the kicker was able to participate in the full training program again during the week. Very likely that he can at least step in as a joker.
And that would be important: the Frenchman scored both goals in the 2-0 first leg and was therefore instrumental in the fact that the wolves were defeated.
If the Saxons have their way, it can be like that again on Saturday. After all, the three points are urgently needed.
RB Leipzig first to VfL, then against City! But Wolfburg’s bogeyman is back!
After the 2-1 defeat by 1. FC Union Berlin, the Red Bulls are in danger of falling behind at the top.
With Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund, the opponents don’t look easy in the next few weeks either. In addition, the towering favorite Manchester City is still waiting in the Champions League.
So you can already talk about the “all or nothing” weeks for the lawn ballers.
Luckily with and not without Nkunku.
