Union Berlin - Stuttgart betting tips and odds

Though Union Berlin are more likely to win this, an away win would only be slightly surprising. It’s a relatively balanced matchup, which usually means we’ll see some exciting football.

The matchup this Saturday is rather one-sided, with Stuttgart seen as the clear underdogs. Most bookmakers online have priced their victory at 4.00, which is enough to doubt such an outcome will happen.

Union Berlin’s latest performance against Eintracht Frankfurt brought a lot of confidence back to their fans. The match could have gone either way as far as betting predictions were concerned, and the half-time result was in line with this. However, top-notch play in the second half ensured a sound 2:0 victory for the home team.

The visiting team lost their most recent Bundesliga engagement despite playing it at home, though the Bundesliga betting odds implied that the game could have gone either way. The scores were at a relatively predictable deadlock for more than half the match, but Stuttgart eventually fell behind and had to settle for a 0:1 defeat.

No one has been able to get past Union Berlin’s defence on their home turf for at least three consecutive matches which is a good testament of strength for their back line.

These two teams already clashed this season, and Union Berlin walked away with a solid away win. It was fairly narrow, though, giving Stuttgart supporters some hope for this game despite the unfavourable matchup.

The hosts went through a slew of unfortunate injuries recently, rendering some of their players unavailable for the match this Saturday. Christopher Trimmel, András Schäfer, Jérôme Roussillon will not be playing, though the team is still considered likely to win.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the 888Sport priced at 1.61 odds.
