THE PREDICTION

RB Leipzig come into this opening weekend on the back of a 3-5 Super Cup loss at the hands of Bayern Munich. Defensively, they were ripped apart by the German champions and will need to improve here in Stuttgart. A dramatic late goal from the hosts kept them out of the Bundesliga bottom three on goal difference the final round of fixtures last season. Unfortunately for them, the likelihood is that they will start this campaign on the back foot, with Leipzig a formidable opponent when factoring in the all-round quality within their squad. Expect Domenico Tedesco’s men to record three points here on the road.
