VfB Stuttgart vs RB Leipzig Preview

VfB Stuttgart host RB Leipzig at the MHPArena on Sunday evening in a Bundesliga fixture with European implications for both sides.

Stuttgart head into this one with mixed form. Their most recent result was a 1-2 home defeat to FC Porto in the Europa League knockout stage on March 12. Prior to that, they drew 2-2 away at Mainz in the league and won 4-0 at home against VfL Wolfsburg on March 1. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 home defeat to Celtic in the Europa League and a 3-3 draw away at Heidenheim complete a sequence that points to a side capable of big performances but inconsistent across competitions. Stuttgart have scored 50 goals this season with a goal difference of +16, but the Europa League has taken its toll on their league consistency.

Leipzig arrive in better domestic shape, having won their last two Bundesliga outings. Their most recent result was a 2-1 home win over FC Augsburg on March 7. Prior to that, they won 1-2 away at Hamburg SV on March 1. Earlier in this sequence, home draws against Borussia Dortmund (2-2) and VfL Wolfsburg (2-2) in February, and a 2-0 defeat away at Bayern Munich in the German Cup, round out a picture of a side that has rediscovered momentum at the right time. With 48 goals scored and a goal difference of +14 — virtually identical to Stuttgart’s — this shapes up as a closely-matched contest.

The head-to-head record strongly favours Stuttgart, who have won four of the last five meetings, with Leipzig claiming just one win. Most recently, Leipzig won 3-1 at home in November 2025 — but Stuttgart won 2-3 away at Leipzig in May 2025 and have claimed comfortable home victories of 3-1 in the German Cup in April 2025 and 2-1 in the league in January 2025.
