The big match in the Bundesliga this weekend will see two of the top three lock horns. Bayer Leverkusen sit three points clear at the top of the standings, but Stuttgart could move to within two points of the top spot with a victory this weekend.
Bundesliga Preview
A sensational game in prospect awaits this weekend in the Bundesliga, as Bayer Leverkusen look to continue their red-hot start to the new season when they travel to Stuttgart. Leverkusen come into this tricky game on the road after dropping points for just the second time this term in their previous match, but they remain three points clear at the summit.
Leverkusen are one of just two sides in the Bundesliga that are still sporting unbeaten records at this stage, but their advantage at the top could have been wider had they landed maximum points in their previous match. Still, Xabi Alonso would have taken the positives from his side’s display at the BayArena last Sunday, as Leverkusen played out a 1-1 draw with Borussia Dortmund.
Stuttgart will present a very interesting challenge to the league leaders this weekend, as they currently sit third in the Bundesliga after winning ten of their opening 13 matches this term. It is a solid start for the hosts, and they currently hold a five-point advantage in the race for a Champions League spot in Germany at this early stage.
Stuttgart have bounced back to form after losing two on the bounce, as they have landed victories in each of their last three. Their most recent success was a professional display at home against Werder Bremen. Serhou Guirassy once again got on the scoresheet in the 2-0 win.
Stuttgart vs Bayer Leverkusen Head to Head
Leverkusen holds the advantage in the overall record between these sides, as they have won four of the previous five Bundesliga clashes. However, the latest match between the sides saw the points shared following a 1-1 draw in May. But, Stuttgart are without a win in eight against Leverkusen since a 1-0 away win in April 2018.
Stuttgart vs Bayer Leverkusen Prediction
Both sides come into this fixture in excellent form, and that should make for a competitive fixture on Sunday. However, Leverkusen’s healthy record against Stuttgart is very challenging to overlook, which means that we will be siding with a success for the away side this weekend.
