RB Leipzig vs Stuttgart Prediction and Betting Tips | August 25, 2023

RB Leipzig welcome Stuttgart to the Red Bull Arena Leipzig in the Bundesliga on Friday (August 25).

The hosts suffered a 3-2 defeat at Bayer Leverkusen in their campaign opener last week. New signing Loïs Openda scored on his Bundesliga debut, but it was not enough.

Stuttgart, meanwhile, got their league campaign off to a flying start with a 5-0 home win over Bochum last week. Serhou Guirassy and Silas Katompa Mvumpa bagged braces, while Dan-Axel Zagadou also got on the scoresheet, to move atop the standings.

Interestingly, it was the third straight season Leipzig went winless in their campaign opener, while Stuttgart extended their unbeaten record to three games.

Leipzig's eight-game win streak, including a 3-0 win over Bayern Munich in the DFL-Supercup final, got snapped. They are unbeaten against Stuttgaart and have a 100% record at home, so they will fancy their chances of returning to winning ways.

Stuttgart, meanwhile, have scored once in five games at Leipzig. Since Sebastian Hoeness took over as manager in April, they have lost twice in 14 competitive games, with one of them coming away.

While Leipzig have been the better side in this fixture, considering Stuttgart's form, expect a high-scoring draw.
