Stuttgart - Bayern München predictions

Stuttgart should not have bigger problems running away with three points in this match if they stick to their game plan. However, Bayern München can be a tough nut to crack and the home side need to be on top of their game.

Out of their home field and heading into this match as underdogs, The Bavarians would need to play their best to have a hope of winning. That said, even a draw would be a positive outcome, and all three results are quite possible.

Apoint is never as interesting as a punter would want it to be but Stuttgart will surely have been pleased with a Bayer Leverkusen draw from the previous trip in the Bundesliga. They return home for the Saturday clash feeling good about themselves after going level throughout both terms.

The Bayern Munich supporters were on pins and needles during the first 45 minutes of the last Bundesliga game as their team struggled to break in front against Eintracht Frankfurt. Even though they were made huge favourites to earn an easy win (1.50) it all came down to one goal that made all the difference in the world.

Stuttgart are on a bit of a streak when it comes to scoring. With more than 6 over their last 3 matches, fans are feeling fairly confident in their goal-scoring ability. Likewise, bookmakers online are fairly confident the Saturday match will yield Over 4.5 goals.

Our confidence that The Bavarians will manage to hold their composure in an away game is shaky. They have over 5 concessions on record in their latest 3 visiting games alone.

Stuttgart previously played this match as the visitors in a previous round of the Bundesliga and suffered a fairly narrow defeat. Most bookies believe things will end differently this time, pricing a home win at 2.18.

There’s an interesting development over at Mercedes Benz Arena. It seems both teams have been struck hard by injuries. On one hand, Lilian Egloff, Roberto Massimo, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Josha Vagnoman, Nikolas Nartey, Samuele Di Benedetto will not be playing for the hosts. Conversely, Jamal Musiala, Bouna Sarr, Matthijs De Ligt, Dayot Upamecano, Kingsley Coman, Konrad Laimer, Tarek Buchmann, Sacha Boey will all be unavailable on the away side. Both teams will have to deal with limited options.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.44, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
