RB Leipzig are within touching distance of the Champions League places and also want to add to their tally in the next top match at FC Bayern Munich. "We are the hunters, and when we look at the table, we remain the hunters. It won't be easy in Munich, but we've shown that we can win there," said RB coach Marco Rose after the 2-0 win against Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday evening. The German soccer cup winners thus took advantage of Dortmund's slip-up in the 1-1 draw in Wolfsburg and moved to within one point of BVB and fourth place in the Bundesliga table.
"Of course, we're all aware of the Bayern situation," emphasized Rose. "But both teams still stand for good soccer and quality. We want to bring that to the pitch and of course - we've had good experiences in Munich in the last two games - we want to try and win there again." This refers not only to the 3-1 win in the league on 20 May 2023, but also the 3-0 victory in the Super Cup on 12 August, when Dani Olmo thwarted the German record champions in Munich with a treble.
