RB Leipzig vs Stuttgart Predictions
- Leipzig have won and both teams have scored in three of their last four Bundesliga games.
- Four of Leipzig’s eight Bundesliga home games this season have gone over 3.5 goals.
- Stuttgart have lost all four of their historical top-flight away H2Hs.
RB Leipzig can put the pressure on Bayern
After holding Bayern to a draw to restart the Bundesliga, they went on to destroy Schalke by a 6-1 scoreline last time out to cut Bayern’s lead at the top to just four points.Another win here will provisionally cut that gap to just one point and such a result is expected with the only blemish across Leipzig’s last six competitive games being that 1-1 draw with the ten-time consecutive champions.
Despite their scintillating form, both teams have scored in each of Leipzig’s last four league games, highlighting that they’re not quite infallible at the back.
Stuttgart must go for it
The visitors have looked solid, yet uninspired since the return of Bundesliga action, posting two score draws from as many games. Those results leave them sailing uncomfortably close to the drop zone, so ending a 100% loss record away to Leipzig now is the priority.Only two of the last six home sides have kept Stuttgart from scoring, and that run includes a two-goal haul against Bayern Munich. So even with a poor record across that stretch (D2, L4), getting on the scoresheet is rarely an issue for the visitors.
With the short odds on offer about the straight home win, we’re backing Leipzig to win and both teams to score at a much better value price. To complete our selections, a pretty workmanlike 3-1 result looks likely for smaller stakes in the correct score market.
