- 5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
- 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Borna Barisic made 166 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering RB Leipzig that had 513 games and scored 719 goals.
- 20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Benjamin Henrichs suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' RB Leipzig started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 25.
- 30' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 35' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 0 times this season with winning -% of all matches.

- 60' It’s high time Giovanni van Bronckhorst made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.

- 69' Fashion Sakala is replacing Scott Wright for the Rangers FC side.
- 71' Another change for RB Leipzig made on 71 minute. Dani Olmo leaves to be changed by Emil Forsberg.
- 76' Supporters expect more eagerness from Glen Kamara, as he is very good at scoring at Red Bull Arena Leipzig with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
- 81' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
