Stuttgart are in a relegation battle and face a Leverkusen side who may be distracted. I am still tipping Xabi Alonso’s side to win on the road.

Leverkusen won 2-0 when the sides met in the reverse fixture in November.

Stuttgart Form & Team News


Die Schwaben sit 16th in the Bundesliga table, in the relegation play-off spot. After 26 rounds, they were bottom of the log and five points from safety.

A 3-2 win at Bochum came after a run of one win in 12 matches. A 3-3 comeback draw vs Dortmund preceded a 1-1 draw at Augsburg.

After beating Borussia Monchengladbach 2-1, they lost 3-2 at home to Eintracht Frankfurt in the DFB Pokal. Their last match saw a 2-1 loss away at Hertha Berlin.

VfB Stuttgart will be missing defender Konstantinos Mavropanos due to injury. 

Winger Thomas Kastanaras has a broken ankle and misses out. On loan striker Sehrou Guirassy is the key man with nine goals.

Stuttgart Predicted Lineup


Bredlow; Anton, Zagadou, Ito; Vagnoman, Endo, Haraguchi, Sosa; Tomas, Millot; Guirassy.

Bayer Leverkusen Form & Team News


Leverkusen have lost their last two matches after a 14-match unbeaten streak. They sit sixth in the table with this match coming between two legs of their Europa League semi-final.

A 4-1 win at Royal Union Saint-Gilloise saw them progress 5-2 on aggregate in Europe. A 2-0 home win against RB Leipzig preceded a 0-0 draw at Union Berlin. 

A 2-1 home loss to FC Cologne ended their top four hopes. In midweek, they were beaten 1-0 at Roma in their Europa League first leg.

Striker Patrick Schick is out injured. Coach Xabi Alonso is expected to rotate his side. 

Odilon Kossounou went off injured in midweek so Mitchel Bakker could replace him. Right wingback Jeremie Frimpong took a knock in midweek and is set to be rested.

Bayer Leverkusen Predicted Lineup


Hradecky; Tah, Tapsoba, Bakker; Fosu-Mensah, Andrich, Palacios, Hincapie; Diaby, Hlozek, Wirtz.

Verdict

I am backing Leverkusen to win this match against the 16th-placed club.
