Hertha BSC - Stuttgart betting tips and odds

The visitors are aware of the challenge that awaits them. To come out on top against Hertha BSC on their own field would be a major achievement, and it is always a tough task.

The visitors are not walking into an easy match by any means, but they should be able to come out on top. Winning this match will be a welcome boost to their rankings, though such an outcome is priced at 2.40.

The beginning of Hertha’s previous league match did not exactly offer tangible indication the match would result in a heavy defeat. Hertha BSC managed to keep it level at the break but the game ended in a Hertha BSC_LAST_RUND_AWAY beating they want to bounce back from immediately.

Stuttgart defeated Borussia M'gladbach in the previous round with a narrow 2:1 goal difference and a lead at both halftime and the final whistle. To be frank, this outcome wasn’t much of a surprise – top online bookmakers clearly favoured Stuttgart who also had the advantage of playing at home.

The biggest issue the hosts have is a lacklustre backline. They’re currently on a bit of a trend of conceding a lot of goals – over 5 across their 3 previous matches, to be exact.

Stuttgart can’t really boast a great record when it comes to playing as visitors. They conceded upwards of 5 goals in their most recent 3 away games. Considering they’re heading into another away game, that’s cause for concern.

Hertha BSC are currently occupying 18th and are 2 points away from exiting the relegation zone. The salvation points are much needed but knowing they are priced at 3.10 to beat Stuttgart this Saturday, the odds are against them.

We can rely on the teams’ previous meeting as a point of reference. Earlier in the season, Stuttgart won a Bundesliga match against Hertha BSC in a relatively close game. With that in mind, the 2.40 odds on the visitors winning make a lot of sense.

The home team’s lineup has been severely impacted by an unfortunate string of injuries. Specifically, Márton Dárdai, Stevan Jovetić, Marco Richter, Kelian Nsona Wa Saka, Kevin-Prince Boateng are all away due to injury-related reasons. This makes their chances of beating the visiting side even slimmer and should be a major consideration before choosing to bet one way or the other.

With no injuries to speak of on the visiting side, the favourites will be heading into this fixture with full force.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 1.96 at Betway.
