VfB Stuttgart
VfB Stuttgart are putting together a very strong campaign. A dominant 0-3 win away at Borussia Mönchengladbach last week kept Sebastian Hoeness’s side sharing the fourth spot at the table, and they now head into this round unbeaten in six Bundesliga matches (four wins).
Since their only slip-up in December against Bayern Munich, VfB Stuttgart have looked balanced, confident, and ruthless when given space.
Goals have become a regular feature in their games, with 3+ goals landing in 11 of their last 13 Bundesliga games.
At home, VfB Stuttgart have been particularly reliable, losing just once in nine outings – and that defeat came against Bayern Munich.
Add in Thursday’s 3-2 Europa League win over Young Boys, and VfB Stuttgart arrives with form, momentum, and belief.
SC Freiburg
SC Freiburg are trending upward again. Last week’s 2-1 comeback win over Koln extended their strong home run and moved them within touching distance of the top six.
Julian Schuster’s side have lost just once in their last six Bundesliga matches and are starting to look like a team capable of making a late run up the table.
That said, their schedule has been relentless. SC Freiburg edged through in Europe despite a late 1-0 Europa League defeat to Lille on Thursday, and fatigue could be a factor here.
Away from home, SC Freiburg won just once in their last six trips, although they have been competitive in most of them. Still, defensive lapses tend to creep in against high-tempo sides like VfB Stuttgart.
The Betting Verdict
None of the last six Bundesliga meetings between these two have ended draw, with each side winning three times.
VfB Stuttgart will be eager for revenge after losing 3-1 in the reverse fixture earlier this season, and their current form suggests they are well placed to get it.
With VfB Stuttgart’s attacking consistency and SC Freiburg’s willingness to play on the front foot, this looks set up for another open game.
VfB Stuttgart to edge it, with goals in the game, feels like the logical betting suggestion, and it pays decently.
