RB Leipzig vs Stuttgart Prediction and Betting Tips | January 27th 2023
RB Leipzig will host Stuttgart at the Red Bull Arena on Friday night in another round of the German Bundesliga campaign.
The home side are enjoying life under manager Marco Rose and have now set their sights on a title challenge in the second half of the season. They carried out a 6-1 demolition of last-placed Schalke in their last game, with five different players getting on the scoresheet in an utterly dominant performance.
Leipzig sit second in the Bundesliga, with 32 points from 17 games. They will be looking to continue their good run of form when they play this Friday.
Stuttgart have endured a largely difficult campaign and currently find themselves just outside the drop zone. They played out a 2-2 draw against struggling Hoffenheim last time out and had looked set to come away with all three points after Wataru Endo's 77th-minute strike but came undone by a late leveler from Andrej Kramaric.
The visitors sit 14th in the league table, with just 16 points from 17 games. They will aim to shake off their latest results and get their campaign back on track this weekend.
