RB Leipzig's inconsistent start to the season is a reflection of the team's mixed results. In their four wins, they have a dominant goal difference of 20 goals for and 0 goals against. However, in their three losses, including a 4-1 defeat to Como in the first Champions League match, their goal difference is a worrying 2 goals for and 9 goals against.

RB Leipzig's recent 6-0 win against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga is a stark contrast to PSV's 1-0 win against sc Heerenveen in their previous match. The choice of trainer outside the Red Bull philosophy has been a mixed bag for RB Leipzig. Martín Demichelis, who previously worked as a trainer for River Plate, Monterrey, and Real Mallorca, was appointed by RB Leipzig's board, advised by Jürgen Klopp, to bring new ideas to the team.

RB Leipzig's inconsistent form makes them an interesting but not unbeatable opponent for PSV in the Champions League.
