Leipzig booked their place in the Champions League a week ago. The team is now on the hunt for a record on the final matchday.

RB Leipzig have scored 65 points so far this Bundesliga season. The club's own record could be broken on the final matchday. To do so, however, the Saxons must win at Europa League finalists SC Freiburg on Saturday (3.30pm/Sky). With 68 points, they would have surpassed the previous record from the Bundesliga premiere season by one point. And that is precisely the goal, having already achieved the overarching objective - Champions League participation - a week ago.

"The team would have deserved it because it is a special squad. I hope and believe that we can put the much-cited cherry on the cake with an appropriate performance in Freiburg," said coach Ole Werner. He will voluntarily do without captain David Raum in Breisgau, who will have an additional break for regeneration before the World Cup. Peter Gulacsi will probably be in goal for the last time as number one.
