Stuttgart vs RB Leipzig Preview
Stuttgart
Stuttgart are likely to meet their match on Wednesday when the two teams clash in the 17th round of the ongoing Bundesliga. They’re ranked in the 7th position with 26 points to their name. This means they still have an outside chance of qualifying for a European competition next season.
The hosts like to play in a rather unusual 3-4-1-2 formation, emphasising their strikers, Woltemade and Demirovic. The latter has been in fine form this season, having netted 7 goals already in the league. Attacking midfielder Millot is one of the more significant threats to Stuttgart. He’s scored four times and bagged a couple of assists in this campaign.
RB Leipzig
RB Leipzig are currently ranked 4th in the league table, three spots above the home side, with 30 points. They’ll want to improve their current performances to cement a Champions League berth next season. For that to begin, they’ll have to do well in this away game. Everyone knows how challenging it is to play in Stuttgart.
The likes of Sesko and Openda, who share 13 goals this season, will be the primary threats for Leipzig upfront. In defence, Orban, Seiwald and Klostermann will have to be on top of their games. Despite being a central defender, Orban has found the back of the net on four occasions this season and will want to keep going.
Bet hereStuttgart vs RB Leipzig Prediction
- Pick: Both teams to score
- Odds: 1.39 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Stuttgart 2-2 RB Leipzig
It’s somewhat surprising to note that Leipzig have done exceptionally well at this venue in the past, even though playing away against Stuttgart is usually tricky. In the 6 matches recorded between these two clubs at MHPArena, the guests have won or drawn on five occasions, with the hosts winning only once.
However, we expect both teams to score in this game. Despite the fact that they’re well-matched, it won’t be easy for them to stop conceding goals. Both sides have a lot of top-quality attackers in their ranks. In their previous four consecutive matches, both squads have gotten on the scoresheet no matter what.
Stuttgart vs RB Leipzig Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Total over 2.5 goals
- Odds: 1.43 (22Bet)
A total of over 2.5 goals is anticipated on Wednesday. The last three matches played between these two teams have seen it happen, and quite naturally, we expect the same again. What’s more, both clubs are in excellent form in front of goal.
Both Stuttgart and Leipzig have scored 11 goals in their last five encounters, and we expect that flurry to continue here. The home squad have been unbeaten in four out of their previous five games, whereas the visitors have lost two out of their last four. All things considered, these two are equally balanced and well-matched.
