Bundesliga 2024-2025: Stuttgart-Leipzig, the likely lineups
Stuttgart-Leipzig, the probable formations
Leipzig flies to Stuttgart for a challenge that smacks of Europe. The Red Bull team occupies the last place valid for entry into the Champions League and has a four-point lead over their rivals tonight, who instead occupy eighth place.
After an astonishing season last year, Stuttgart are trying to chase another Champions League qualification and many of their chances come through this direct clash. For tonight's match, coach Hoeness has chosen a 3-4-2-1 front-wheel drive with Millot and Woltemade behind the team's leading scorer Demirovic.
Rose’s Leipzig is having a very erratic season, but despite this the red bulls are in the middle of the Champions zone and tonight they want to find a victory to stretch over fifth in the standings. The former Dortmund coach will rely on a 5-man defense with the Openda-Sesko attacking pair (13 goals between the two in the Bundesliga) ready to strike at the opposing defense.
Probable lineups
Stuttgart (3-4-2-1): Nübel; Roualt, Chabot, Mittelstädt; Vagnoman, Keitel, Stiller, Führich; Millot, Woltemade; Demirovic. All. Hoeness
Lipsia (5-3-2): Gulacsi; Henrichs, Seiwald, Orban, Geertruida, Nusa; Baumgartner, Schlager, Vermeeren; Openda, Sesko. All. Rose
