Tip and bets
Leipzig failed in the first match, dropping points against Mainz. It is obvious that Bulls will play for a win in hope to pick up the first points, so Stuttgart will have a hard time. Despite two successful matches at the start, Swabians are unlikely to put up a fight - they are not looking good on defense, so Leipzig should be able to record the victory.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1) on Leipzig
Leipzig is yet to gain form, plus new players need time to find communication, but Bulls are a clear favourite. Some of Stuttgart's players are unavailable, plus they are playing terrible against Leipzig, so we should expect a confident victory from the favourite.
Our second bet is on Leipzig to win by a two goal margin
