SV Sandhausen vs RB Leipzig Prediction 16 August 2025
Added on 14 August, 2025
In the 1/32 finals of the German Cup, Sandhausen will face RB Leipzig in a clash that heavily favors the visitors.
Just a few years ago, Sandhausen competed in the 2. Bundesliga, but they have since tumbled to the fourth tier of German football—a dramatic decline for the Black and Whites. Their struggles have continued into the new season, with losses to FSF Frankfurt (1-2) and Stuttgart Kickers (2-3) highlighting their weakness.
RB Leipzig, while also coming off a disappointing 2024/25 season that saw them miss out on European competition, remain far stronger. Over the summer, the Red Bulls lost key players but performed well in friendlies, beating Santos (3-1), Moizelwitz (3-0), and Toulouse (7-0), though suffering narrow defeats to Atalanta (1-2) and Lens (1-2).
Given the gap in quality, RB Leipzig are clear favorites. Even without exerting maximum effort, they are expected to secure a comfortable two-goal victory against an overmatched Sandhausen side.
