How long can Stuttgart keep it up and are Leipzig ready for another title challenge?

Steilcast - A show about the Bundesliga & German football

The Athletic's Raphael Honigstein is joined by Christoph Biermann and Oliver Trust to take an in-depth look at Bundesliga newcomers Stuttgart as they find themselves in 5th place after an impressive start.

Elsewhere we look at whether Leipzig have got what it takes to mount a genuine title challenge in the post-Werner world, and whether Thomas Muller's continued good form for Bayern is worthy of a recall to the national team.
