Stuttgart hosts RB Leipzig in round 14 of the German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Saturday, January 2nd at Mercedes-Benz Arena (Stuttgart)
The Swabians were forced to reboot by relegation from the elite and performances in the country's second-tier division. Pellegrino Matarazzo's charges returned to the Bundesliga with an accelerated pace. Stuttgart currently takes an intermediate seventh line in the standings and has real prospects of returning to European Cups. Let’s recall that Stuttgart has won five championships and three national cups. Now Stuttgart is a young team, where the average age of players is just over 24 years old. The Swabians have enough talented performers who make up the backbone of the team (Kobel, Anton, Kempf, Endo, Nicholas Gonzalez, Wamangituka, Didavi, Castro, and Kaladzic).

Many experts underestimated Red Bull Leipzig after starting successes in the Bundesliga, where the club instantly became a big force. Leipzig is in third place in the current standings. Moreover, the Bulls successfully made it to the Champions League playoffs. Nagelsmann's players demonstrate quality football, with the best defensive performance in the national championship. After the failure in the confrontation with Borussia from Monchengladbach (0: 1), RB Leipzig has not lost for seven matches in a row. The club has raised a whole generation of strong footballers who became stars in Leipzig. Such performers as goalkeeper Gulasci, defenders Upamecano, Klostermann, and Angelinho, midfielders Sabitzer, Kampl, Nkunku, Olmo, and Forsberg, as well as forward Poulsen, are the leaders of the modern Red Bull Leipzig. The team is pinning great hopes on two newcomers – Sorlot and Hwang (a potential replacement for Werner who left for Chelsea).
Both clubs have a reputation of away fighters. This is especially true of Stuttgart, which scored most of the points in the away matches. Leipzig is less dependent on the stadium because this team has enough class to realize its tournament ambitions. Nagelsmann's wards have every chance of adding three points to their asset.
Prediction for the match: RB Leipzig to win
