The last 5 meetings (RB Leipzig–Hamburger SV): 1–2, 2–1, 1–1, 0–2, 0–3. On a small sample the head-to-head is context, not a dominant signal — the model's depth carries the probability, not a handful of individual results.
What to watch
The model makes RB Leipzig the favourite at 51%, but at 44% draw is far from a write-off. The early stages often decide it: whoever sets the tempo first can swing the probabilities quickly. Watch whether the favourite asserts itself early or the game stays open — that is where the model's lean is won or lost.
