RB Leipzig impressed once again with a 3–1 victory over FC Köln, showing sharp attacking play and the kind of control that keeps them pushing at the top of the Bundesliga. In this episode, we break down the key moments and standout performances that secured the win, from the early breakthrough to the game-sealing finish. Looking ahead, the focus shifts to the upcoming clash with VfL Wolfsburg, a matchup that promises to test Leipzig’s momentum. We highlight two players to watch: Nicolas Seiwald, whose tireless work in midfield has become essential for Leipzig, and Christian Eriksen, Wolfsburg’s new creative spark who will be central to their attacking threat. On the injury front, Leipzig will have to cope without Kosta Nedeljković, sidelined for several weeks with a knee stress reaction, and Max Finkgräfe, recovering from a medial collateral ligament injury sustained in training. Both are expected back after the October international break. With confidence high but depth being tested, Leipzig fans can look forward to another big opportunity to prove their strength.
