Command Analysis
VfB Stuttgart
GermanyCurrent form
As expected, the current season has not been easy for Stuttgart. After all, the squad was significantly renewed in the summer, now they have to play in a very tight schedule, and so far the Swabians have not achieved much success either in the Bundesliga or in the Champions League. In the national championship, Sebastian Hoeneß charges are in ninth place after 12 rounds, having scored 17 points. Stuttgart played their last match away from home against Werder and ended in a 2:2 draw, and were losing in the score until the 85th minute, but Demirovic accurate strike brought one point to the team.
It should be noted that the Swabians are successfully playing home matches in the national championship. Their only defeat was against Eintracht (2:3), which is having a bright season and is playing powerfully in attack. This week, in the German Cup, https://www.vfb.de/en target=_blank rel=noopener>Stuttgart won 3:0 away from home against Regensburg with class and made it to the quarterfinals.
In the Champions League, Sebastian Hoeneß team suffered a crushing 1-5 defeat in Belgrade against Red Star in the final round. After this defeat, Stuttgart fell to 27th place in the table and is not in the playoff zone. The gap is two points.
Disqualifications and injuries
Zagadou, Raimund, Undav and Toure are all out due to injury, with Al-Dakhil and Leveling questionable.

Estimated line-up: Nübel – Stergiou, Chase, Chabot, Mittelstaedt – Stiller, Karazor – Wagnoman, Milhaud, Fürich – Demirovic.
Union Berlin
GermanyCurrent form
Since the beginning of the season, Union has been among the leaders for some time, but over the long term, a decline has followed. This did not cause much surprise, since the team is very weak in attack, and it is difficult to play in the Bundesliga only due to a reliable defense. In 12 matches played, the Berliners have scored only ten goals. Incidentally, the same number has Bochum, who is at the bottom of the table.
In the last five rounds, Union has not won a single victory - three defeats and two draws. Seven goals have been conceded in this period. In the table, Bo Svensson team is currently in 11th place, with 17 points. In the last round, the Berliners lost to Bayer on their home field (1:2), and during the match they made only two shots on target. Before that, there was an away defeat 0:1 against Wolfsburg, then they managed to hit the target four times.
It should be noted that the defense in the last two matches allowed the opponents a lot at their goal. In some way, this is due to the absence of Portuguese defender Diego Leite in these matches, who plays an important role in Union defensive formations. Today, the Portuguese appearance on the field is in question.
Disqualifications and injuries
Stein and Ilic will miss the match due to injuries. Leite appearance on the field is in question.
Interesting trends for betting
- Union have not won in 10 of their last 11 away matches in the Bundesliga – four draws and six defeats
- In the last five away matches in the championship, Union have not scored a single goal
- In the last three matches, the Berliners played to a draw in the first half
Estimated line-up: Rennow - Duki, Vogt, Querfeld - Trimmel, Khedira, Kemlein, Rothe - Yehn, Hollerbach - Vertessen.

1.50Tip and bets
Union is in a significant slump, has not won in five rounds in a row, the attack is still not impressive, and the defense has started to fail regularly and is not as reliable as it was at the start of the season. Stuttgart, with the right attitude, is capable of dealing with any opponent on its home field. In addition, the Swabians play successfully against the Berliners, having won the three previous face-to-face matches. We think that the hosts will have some problems, but they will be able to get three points today.
Our forecast is Stuttgart to win at odds of 1.75
Bet on total
It is hard to expect a lot of goals in matches involving Union, given their style of play. Since the start of the season, more than two goals have been scored in away matches for the Berliners only once, and that happened in Munich against Bayern, where the opponent scored three goals themselves.
The second bet is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.94
Bet on the exact difference in the score
Stuttgart have won the previous three head-to-head encounters, winning the last two by one or two goals. It is unlikely that the hosts will win by a landslide today, given their opponents' strong defense.
Prediction: Stuttgart win by one or two goals with odds of 2.25
