Stats for this game
Matchup VfB Stuttgart VS RB Leipzig
Leipzig set the baseline
Leipzig’s record gives them the stronger starting point, supported by wins in both venues and emphatic results such as 4–0 at home in August 2021. Their 3–1 victory over Stuttgart on 1 November 2025 at the Red Bull Arena reaffirmed that ability to impose a clear structure. The favourite’s advantage is real, but it is repeatedly tested rather than simply accepted.
Stuttgart’s answers carry weight
Stuttgart beat Leipzig 2–1 at home on 15 January 2025, then won 3–1 in the DFB Cup on 2 April 2025. They also won 3–2 in Leipzig on 17 May 2025 before the sides’ contrasting 2025–26 results. The pattern gives the fixture a useful tension: Leipzig can restore order through control, while Stuttgart’s intensity can make venue and momentum decisive. A future meeting can put that balance under examination. Leipzig’s control and Stuttgart’s willingness to attack the hierarchy give the fixture a question that can survive changes in personnel and competition context.
