Stuttgart - St. Pauli predictions

A quick look at the betting odds with some of the biggest bookmakers online is enough to tell you who the favourites are. Priced at 1.76, a home win seems the obvious choice. An upset is not quite impossible, mind you, which adds a small degree of risk but is ultimately food increasing profits.

The away team’s chances of winning this Friday are dubious at best. They are the clear underdogs in a matchup with Stuttgart, and the fact that they’re the visiting team isn’t making things any easier.

Stuttgart are coming on the back of a harsh 3:1 away defeat in the previous round. Both online sportsbooks and Bundesliga betting predictions saw them as the underdogs, however, so the fact that they were in the lead at halftime is more surprising than the final outcome.

The away team spent more than half of their previous Bundesliga match in a deadlock, but eventually narrowly won. That said, such an outcome was relatively predictable – the two teams were relatively close in terms of form, but St. Pauli had the advantage of playing at home.

The visitors are on a bit of a purple patch when it comes to scoring, with 5 goals scored in total in their latest 3 Bundesliga matches. If the trend continues, we’re bound to see a pretty exciting game here.

Friday's matchup will feature both teams at full strength, allowing for a fair and competitive game.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.72 odds offered at Pncl.
