Leipzig take on the visitors Stuttgart at the Red Bull Arena in the 5th tour of the Bundesliga. The match will be played in the eponymous city Leipzig on Wednesday, September 26th.
Leipzig are in the middle of the table on the thirteenth place with only five points to their credit after five tours. The team has been struggling a lot with their defensive line lately, they have already conceded eight goals this Bundesliga season. It`s worth noting that Die Roten have gotten most of their points recently in front of their home crowd. They have had two home fixtures, the first one has ended with a draw against Fortuna Dusseldorf for them and the second one with a win over Hannover 96. It`s a lot easier for the players of the team to play in front of their home crowd who motivate them all the time. In their last three matches Leipzig drew against Eintracht Frankfurt with a 1-1 score, lost to Red Bull Salzburg with a 2-3 score in their Europa League group stage fixture and beat Hannover 96 with a 3-2 score. The team of Ralf Rangnick has also had a friendly fixture recently where they have beaten Zaglebie with a 1-0 score. In their 1/32-finals fixture of the DFB Pokal they beat Viktoria Koln with a 3-1 score.

Stuttgart have been in a crisis lately. The team is on the seventeenth place in the Bundesliga with two points to their credit at the moment. Die Schwaben have been showing horrible performances lately conceding seven goals and scoring only three so far. However, in their last two fixtures the team of Tayfun Korkut looked pretty good and was able to get two draws. The coach of the team probably found some words to motivate his players. In their last three matches Stuttgart drew against Fortuna Dusseldorf with a 0-0 score, against Freiburg with a 3-3 score and beat Grossaspach with a 2-0 score in a friendly fixture. Die Roten have also had another friendly game recently where they have beaten Greuther Furth with a 3-1 score. In their 1/32-finals fixture of the DFB Pokal Stuttgart lost to Hansa Rostock with a 0-2 score.
Leipzig and Stuttgart have faced each other only twice in history. Both fixtures happened last season when Die Roten Bullen beat Die Schwaben with a 1-0 score in front of their home crowd and drew against them on the away field. Now the hosting side is levels ahead of the away side, they have been showing better performances lately so they should get the victory in the upcoming fixture.
Prediction for the match: Leipzig to win.
