RB Leipzig vs Stuttgart prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-10-31 14:30.
[p]Two of the Bundesliga’s early season pacesetters meet on matchday nine when RB Leipzig host Stuttgart.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]RB Leipzig have not looked back since being thumped 6-0 at Bayern on matchday one, handing out the same 6-0 scoreline to Augsburg and thrashing lower-tier Cottbus in the DFB-Pokal to go eight games unbeaten across all competitions (W7, D1). New manager Ole Werner is no stranger to hitting the ground running, having won nine of his first ten games in charge of Werder Bremen four seasons ago, and his eighth win last weekend as Leipzig boss saw the club record their second-best start to a top-flight season after nine rounds. Their next task is to retain their 100% home record in this competition, with three wins from three at the Red Bull Arena boosting their early-term success.[/p]
[p]Stuttgart were also beaten on matchday one when they lost 2-1 at Union Berlin and, after suffering defeat in the Bundesliga only once since (W6, D1), began the weekend just one point worse off than Leipzig. Sebastian Hoeneß’ side made it five Bundesliga wins on the spin with victory at home against Mainz last weekend (2-1), making this their second-best start to a league campaign after eight matches since winning the title in 2006/07. The Swabians’ recent success includes back-to-back away wins, and they now have the chance to make it three consecutive Bundesliga wins on their travels for the first time since April 2024.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
