Leipzig will face Graz for the last time this season in the Champions League. However, the match will take place neither in Leipzig nor in Graz.

RB Leipzig's farewell from the Champions League will be a double away game. The Wörthersee Stadium in Klagenfurt is not the home arena for either the Saxons or Sturm Graz on Wednesday (21:00/DAZN). The Austrian champions will have to travel to the arena a good 150 kilometers away, as their own stadium does not meet the requirements of the top flight.

In sporting terms, both teams have already been eliminated. Both Leipzig and Graz are on three points after seven matchdays. Reaching the top 24 of the 36-team league is out of the question. Leipzig could still move up two places, which would have an impact on bonuses.
