RB Leipzig hasn’t kept a clean sheet in their last 14 UEFA Champions League home games. The last time they kept a clean sheet at home was in October 2020 against Istanbul Basaksehir.

Real Madrid has performed well in away knockout games against German teams. They have won five out of their last six such games, with just one loss. This is a significant improvement compared to their previous record.

RB Leipzig had a strong attacking presence, with nine shots on target during the game. This is the most shots on target they’ve had in a UEFA Champions League knockout game. It’s also the most shots on target Real Madrid has faced since the 2022 final against Liverpool.

RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko was particularly active, directing four shots on target. This is one of the highest numbers of shots on target by a player in a UEFA Champions League game this season.

Vinícius Júnior made his 50th UEFA Champions League appearance for Real Madrid. He is the fifth youngest player to reach this milestone in the competition’s history.

Overall, it was a solid performance by Real Madrid, who managed to secure a crucial away victory. RB Leipzig will need to improve their defense if they want to overturn the deficit in the second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu.
