Prediction

  • Three-time Bundesliga champions Stuttgart slipped to their first defeat in five league games under new coach Sebastian Hoeness last weekend in a relegation six-pointer in the capital.
  • Meanwhile, Leverkusen slipped to their first defeat in 15 games under Xabi Alonso in the Rhein derby against Koln last Friday.
  • Both these sides have suffered five sending offs a piece this season, so team discipline will be a factor in this game.
  • Leverkusen may have to settle for a share of the spoils with one eye on their crunch Europa League semi-final return leg against Roma.
