VfB Stuttgart vs RasenBallsport Leipzig: Bet on the Bulls' first away win

Despite the personnel problems, Leipzig is the favourite for the game against Stuttgart. Considering the Bulls' away statistics, the line looks a bit stretched, but let's not forget that RB started strongly in the second round. Leipzig needs to improve their away statistics for the final success and get into the Champions League zone.

The Reds finished 2021 with two defeats to Bayern and Cologne, while the Swabians side began the New Year with an away draw in Fürth. Before the start of the 19th round, Stuttgart is in 15th position, just a goal difference ahead of Augsburg, located in the danger zone. The home side has better home statistics than away: Stuttgart scored 11 points from 18 at the Mercedes-Benz Arena. Since then, the Swabian side has played two home games, played out a draw with Hertha and lost 0:5 to Bayern.

In their last two games, the Bulls picked up just one point in Augsburg, losing at home to Arminia. Leipzig started 2022 very confidently, with a 4:1 home defeat to tough Mainz. However, we should not forget that this team was entirely at home in the first round regarding RB. Away, the Bulls have only four points in eight meetings. Let's see if Tedesco has managed to change the mentality of his new team over the winter break.

Leipzig had no problems with Stuttgart in the first round; the Bulls beat the Swabians with a score of 4:0. In that game, the goals for RB were scored by Soboslai (double), Forsburg and Silva. There is no certainty that Tedesco will have a positive career at Leipzig. However, the coach has experience of taking a team to the Champions League, which is probably why the club bosses invited Herr Domenico. RB has an excellent chance of success. Here are our betting odds for the game: Handicap 2 (-0.75) for 1.61, Handicap 2 (-1.5) for 2.268, Correct score 0:3 for 11.00.
