RB Leipzig are set to host Hertha Berlin at the Red Bull Arena on Saturday in the sixth game week of the German Bundesliga.
RB Leipzig's struggle in Jesse Marsh's era continued last weekend as the Red Bulls had to settle for a draw against Koln. The game ended 1-1 with Amadou Haidara leveling the scores for RB Leipzig after Anthony Modeste opened the scoring for Koln.
The draw at Koln means RB Leipzig have now failed to win any of their last three Bundesliga games and four in all competitions. They sit 12th in the table with four points from five games so far and will be looking to turn the tide against Hertha Berlin on Saturday.

RB Leipzig have won none of their last four games across all competitions conceding 12 goals in that period. Their only Bundesliga win so far came on home turf and they will be hoping to replicate that on Saturday.
Hertha Berlin have picked up form after a slow start and have won their last two games. RB Leipzig should however get the win when they meet at the weekend.
