Leipzig (dpa) - Those responsible at RB Leipzig are clearly holding back verbally in the fight for the top of the table in the Bundesliga.
«We were autumn champions last season and third in the end.
That's why we're not calling for the championship battle, ”said CEO Oliver Mintzlaff on Friday in the ZDF morning magazine.
"It makes no sense to throw our season goal of Champions League qualification overboard and say we are attacking Bayern."
Leipzig was in second place seven points behind Munich, but is only two points behind the record champions before the 23rd matchday.
Leipzig meets Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday (6.30 p.m. / Sky).
Mintzlaff saved himself from bold announcements.
“We're not thinking about the top of the table, but about the important game against Gladbach.
There are empty phrases, but we only think from game to game, ”said the 45-year-old.
Bayern have already played against 1. FC Köln, so RB could take the lead in a surprise victory for the Rhinelander.
