RB Leipzig beat Eintracht Frankfurt 6-0 at Leipzig Red Bull Arena on Bundesliga Matchday 5, a result that lifted the hosts to nine points from five matches. Ezechiel Banzuzi scored after only a minute, converting a chance created by Neil El Aynaoui, and the home side never looked back.
AI-assisted match report written from official match data.
Christopher Nkunku doubled the lead in the fifth minute, with Antonio Nusa providing the assist. Frankfurt, managed by A. Hütter, had barely settled when they found themselves two goals down. Nkunku struck twice more in the space of three minutes, in the 41st and 44th, to complete his hat-trick and send Leipzig in at the interval 4-0 ahead.
The second half was far quieter in terms of goals until Nusa added the fifth in the 54th minute from a Banzuzi assist. Frankfurt, who began the day thirteenth in the table with five points, found no way back. Tidiam Gomis completed the rout in the 89th minute, finishing from a Benjamin Henrichs delivery.
Frankfurt had more of the ball, holding 53 per cent possession to Leipzig's 47, and managed 18 shots to the hosts' 20. Nine of those efforts were on target, yet none found the net, and Leipzig's clinical finishing made the difference.
Christopher Nkunku scored a hat-trick, including two goals in three minutes before half-time, and earned a rating of 9.48. Maarten Vandevoordt, also on the home side, was rated 9.19 as Leipzig kept a clean sheet against nine Frankfurt shots on target.
Frankfurt enjoyed the larger share of possession, 53 per cent to 47, but it brought no reward against a ruthless Leipzig side.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave RB Leipzig 58%, the draw 25%, Eintracht Frankfurt 17%. It finished RB Leipzig 6–0 Eintracht Frankfurt.
RB Leipzig's rating edge carries it — RB Leipzig are the stronger side on our strength rating, and their control of the ball on top gives RB Leipzig a clear lead. The draw at 25% is about what a gap this size usually leaves.
Why RB Leipzig at 58%?
RB Leipzig sit 92 points higher on our strength rating — 1735 to 1643. Sides with a 80–160-point rating edge at home won 56.7% of 13,330 such games. RB Leipzig hold 7 more possession points (59 to 52 in recent games) across a 92-point rating gap. Control now carries a receipt beyond near-equals too: sides with this control edge at a 60–120-point rating gap won 42.6% of 8,609 such games where the class table expected 40.6%. The 300 most similar past games finished 54–24–22.
Why only 58%?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims RB Leipzig's column. Across 11,252 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.7%, with draws up 1.4 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why the draw at 25%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 24.8%. These teams' recent games average 4.5 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 16,847. The goals environment takes 2.1 points off the draw. Early-season fixtures add 1.4 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
RB Leipzig are unbeaten in their last 9 home Bundesliga games: 7 wins and 2 draws. The run began on 15 February 2026. Last recorded home league defeat: 31 January 2026 — RB Leipzig 1–2 FSV Mainz 05. Latest home league result: 13 September 2026 — RB Leipzig 5–0 Hamburger SV. Across 13,679 historical matches following an unbeaten home league run of at least six games, hosts won 56.0%, compared with 54.8% expected from team strength. Eintracht Frankfurt have rebuilt the eleven — fewer of last season's regular starters are still starting. Squad turnover reads dramatic but hasn't moved results once the rating is controlled: the busiest windows landed within noise across 5,368 games, rebuilt elevens likewise across 5,446, and even losing the most regular starters showed nothing (5,336). The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
