VfB Stuttgart
VfB Stuttgart continue to enjoy one of their best seasons in recent years and are firmly in the top five of the Bundesliga table.
They lost just once in their last six Bundesliga matches, winning three times, and most recently drawing 3-3 against Heidenheim last week, which was a minor setback.
VfB Stuttgart came back from behind twice last week, scoring the equalizing goal just before the end, and proving how mentally stable they are. An impressive fact is that VfB Stuttgart has scored a whopping 15 goals in the last 15 minutes of their Bundesliga matches this season.
This game will have special meaning for VfB Stuttgart’s coach, Sebastian Hoeness, who will be in charge of his 100th Bundesliga match for VfB Stuttgart, becoming one of the rare club coaches to reach that milestone. Perhaps that will motivate his team even more to win.
Regarding home form, VfB Stuttgart is unbeaten in five at home, winning three and drawing twice. Another impressive fact – six of their last eight home wins came after they scored goals within the last 15 minutes of matches, including all the last five.
Wolfsburg
Wolfsburg is in trouble. Bad signs are everywhere, and they are moving closer to Bundesliga relegation every week.
They lost a very important game last week against Augsburg, even though they led 1-0 and 2-1, only to lose 2-3. That was their 9th Bundesliga game this season, in which they failed to win after leading, a Bundesliga record.
Wolfsburg have not won a Bundesliga match since mid-January, drawing twice and losing four times in their last six. Their current tally of 20 points is the lowest they ever had at this stage of the season, and now only the goal difference separates them from the bottom three.
Another negative fact – this is Wolfsburg’s first time ever to concede an incredible 49 goals in 23 games, making them the second-worst defensive team currently behind Heidenheim.
The Betting Verdict
VfB Stuttgart are the clear favourite here. Their strong recent form, especially at home, contrasts sharply with Wolfsburg’s struggles and poor away record.
VfB Stuttgart should control large phases of this match and are the likely winners. They did not have any trouble beating Wolfsburg in Wolfsburg 0-3 earlier in the season.
Goals may come from both sides given Wolfsburg’s defensive fragility, but the hosts should ultimately take this one.
