Latest RB Leipzig vs Stuttgart team information

RB Leipzig are in a defensive crisis with Lukas Klostermann suspended, while Benjamin Henrichs and captain Willi Orban are both injured.

Castello Lukeba and Chadaille Bitshiabu are likely to play as centre-backs, while David Raum and Kosta Nedeljkovic will cover the flanks.

Midfielder Amadou Haidara is still recovering from a hamstring injury, so Nicolas Seiwald and Arthur Vermeeren could be handed starting spots in midfield.

On Stuttgart's side, they will be without a number of defenders including Ameen Al Dakhil, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Finn Jeltsch and Leonidas Stergiou.

In the context of personnel shortage, coach Hoeness can arrange a 4-man defense including Josha Vagnoman, Luca Jaquez, Julian Chabot and Maximilian Mittelstädt.

Key midfielder Angelo Stiller had to leave the field early in the match against Augsburg due to injury. Atakan Karazor and Enzo Millot are likely to take on the midfield roles in this match.

Latest football commentary RB Leipzig vs Stuttgart

RB Leipzig escaped unscathed against Werder Bremen in their last game, with the opposition missing six clear-cut chances. It was also Leipzig's first clean sheet in eight games, a period in which they conceded 15 goals. However, the home side have also failed to score in two of their last three games.

Interim coach Zsolt Low knows his team are currently level on points with Mainz 05 – who are holding on to a place in the Conference League – but their goal difference (+6) is only half that of Mainz, meaning that if Leipzig lose in the final round, they will almost certainly miss out on European football.

Leipzig's form has been very unstable recently. They have not won 4 consecutive matches, including 3 draws. At home at the Red Bull Arena, Leipzig have drawn their last 2 matches, but before that they had won 7/10 recent matches here and lost only 1.

On the other side, Stuttgart took advantage of the extra man advantage from the 12th minute against Augsburg – when they were leading 1-0 – and added a second goal in the 51st minute to win.

Notably, coach Sebastian Hoeness's team has kept two consecutive clean sheets - something they have not done since May 2024, in a series of 45 matches.

Stuttgart beat Leipzig 2-1 in the first leg on January 15, and they are currently on a streak of 3 consecutive wins against this opponent with a total score of 10-4.

Despite coming off back-to-back wins, Stuttgart have lost two of their previous three (drawing one). However, they have lost just two of their last 13 away games, winning seven in that time.
