Team News

Stuttgart
RBL
  • Alou Kuol is suspended for one game carrying over from last season.
  • Sasa Kalajdzic has an ankle problem.
  • Atakan Karazor has just spent six weeks on remand in Ibiza so is unlikely to be match fit for a while.
  • David Raum will be a useful addition to the ranks after his signing from Hoffenheim.
  • Yussuf Poulsen has a muscle injury and is ruled out.

Prediction

  • Stuttgart stayed up by the skin of their teeth last season with a last-gasp goal on the final day.
  • Leipzig will be looking to mount a title challenge after a strong second half to the season under coach Domenico Tedesco, helped by star man Christopher Nkunku.
  • Leipzig have not conceded in four games against Stuttgart, but the home side can push the visitors from eastern Germany all the way.
