LiontipsStuttgart vs Leipzig. Prediction and bets on the Bundesliga match
Command Analysis
Current form
Stuttgart secured a tough away win with a minimal score of 1:0 against Augsburg after the break. Despite the advantage in the game and a decent number of dangerous moments, it was not until the middle of the second half that Undav scored the only goal of the game. With 26 points scored, the Swabians are approaching the start of the 17th round in seventh place in the table and are only one point behind the European Cup zone. Overall, Sebastian Hoeneß charges have not demonstrated such a bright and stable game as in the past season. Even on their home field there are outright failures, as happened with St. Pauli (0:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Zagadou, Narti, Dil and Toure will not play today due to injuries.
Interesting trends for betting
- At least three goals have been scored in nine of Stuttgart last 12 home Bundesliga games
- In the Swabians' previous six home league games, no more than one goal was scored in the first half
Estimated line-up: Nübel - Wagnoman, Rouault, Chabot, Mittelstaedt - Milhaud, Stiller, Karazor, Leveling - Undav, Voltemade.
Current form
Leipzig, unlike its upcoming opponent, is in the top 4 on the eve of the start of the 17th round, occupying the coveted fourth place. The Bulls have 30 points, the same as third-placed Eintracht. After an obvious failure in November, Marco Rose managed to stabilize the game of his charges, the team won three victories in the previous five rounds. In the last game, the attack showed itself well, scoring four goals against Werder (4:2). It is worth noting that Simons, who was ill before and could not help his club, scored a double. So far this season, Leipzig has only had a complete failure in the Champions League, where the team has already lost any chance of making the playoffs.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lukeba, Henrichs, Ouedraogo and Schlager are injured. Haidara will not play due to a card accumulation.
Interesting trends for betting
- Leipzig are unbeaten in 11 of their last 14 Bundesliga away games
- Five of Leipzig previous seven away Bundesliga games have seen no more than three goals scored
Tentative line-up: Gulacsi - Seivald, Klosterman, Orban - Nusa, Vermeeren, Kampl, Raum - Simons - Openda, Sheshko.

12.00Tip and bets
Leipzig has noticeably improved its attack, where Sheshko, Simons and Openda now play the main role in the team. It is not easy for any opponent to cope with this trio. Plus, the Bulls successfully play away matches in the Bundesliga - they have not lost in 11 of the previous 14 away matches. Stuttgart has not been stable throughout the season, they have lost at home to Eintracht and St. Pauli, bookmakers are clearly seriously overestimating the hosts. Leipzig is quite capable of playing for at least a draw.
Our prediction is Leipzig will not lose at odds of 1.84
Bet on total
In the three previous head-to-head matches, Stuttgart and Leipzig scored at least three goals. The opponents are currently doing well in attack, and we have every right to expect another high-scoring match.
The second bet is total over three goals with odds of 1.72
Bet on the first half
It should be noted that in the last five matches Leipzig lost in the first half only to Bayern. It is unlikely that the hosts will be able to immediately show their advantage today.
Prediction - Leipzig will not lose in the first half with a coefficient of 1.55
