1) You shall not pass!
Leipzig have conceded just two goals in their four Bundesliga matches so far this season, and both of those came in a win over champions Bayer Leverkusen, meaning they have three clean sheets to boast. That’s the best record in the Bundesliga, and only four teams in Europe’s top five leagues have conceded fewer or equal, including Liverpool and Juventus themselves. However, Thiago Motta’s men have failed to score on three occasions this season, suggesting Leipzig may well have the better balance with their rock-solid defence.
