Match Stats: Goals likely 

 

This is usually an entertaining encounter, each of the last eight head to head clashes between the sides have seen BTTS – with seven of these games seeing 3+ goals. The initial league meeting between the sides this season saw Leipzig run out 3-1 winners in a game that saw a combined xG of 3.58, from 30 shots in total.

The sides are evenly matched in a lot of areas, and that is reflected in the current league standings, with the sides level on points ahead of this game and locked in a battle for a Champions League spot next season.

 

It’s worth noting Stuttgart’s impressive home record in the Bundesliga this season. They’ve only lost one of their 12 home matches in the German top flight this term, winning nine of these games and scoring 21 goals in the process.

 

Predictions 

BTTS @ 1.4

Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.5 

BTTS & No Draw @ 2.5 

 

Shot Stats: Keep an eye on Diomande

 

Yan Diomande is one of the most exciting wingers to watch in football at the moment, and is capturing the attention of some of the elite clubs around Europe. He’s registered 15 goal contributions across just 19 starts in the Bundesliga this term, including registering a goal contribution in each of his last four matches in the Bundesliga.

 

He’s taken 42 shots in the Bundesliga this season (2.20 per 90), with 22 of these attempts finding the target (1.15 per 90). Only Christoph Baumgartner has registered more goal contributions for Leipzig in the Bundesliga this season (16) than Diomande, showing just how much talent the young winger has.

Predictions 

Yan Diomande 1+ shots on target @ 1.4

Yan Diomande 3+ shots @ 1.66

Yan Diomande to score or assist @ 2.0

 

Card Stats: Stuttgart more appealing for cards

 

Leipzig are quite a passive side, and have picked up the second fewest yellow cards in the Bundesliga this season (36). Leipzig also rank low for fouls (9.20 per game), so it makes sense to focus on Stuttgart for fouls and cards in this particular contest.

 

Stuttgart have picked up 49 cards across their 25 matches in the Bundesliga this season (1.96 per game), with their most carded player being Bilal El Khannouss, with five yellow cards to his name. I’d look at El Khannouss to commit a few fouls and pick up a card in this clash, he’s a very talented player but often can’t maintain his discipline for the 90 minutes.

Predictions 

Stuttgart 2+ cards @ 1.5

Stuttgart to pick up the most cards @ 2.1

Bilal El Khannouss 2+ fouls committed @ 2.0

Bilal El Khannouss to be shown a card @ 3.4
