Stuttgart managed to improve their game after a crushing 1:5 defeat by Crvena Zvezda, and the results came. After that failure in Belgrade, the Swabians went on an unbeaten streak of five matches in all tournaments, winning the last four. In the previous round in the Bundesliga, Sebastian Hoeneß charges did not experience any particular problems away from home with Heidenheim and won with a score of 3:1. Stuttgart moved up to sixth place in the standings, four points behind the top 4. It should be noted that the team suffered only one defeat on its home field.

St. Pauli

Current form
St. Pauli is quite expectedly fighting for survival and after 14 rounds they are coping with this task. The "pirates" have 11 points and are in 15th place, while the gap from the play-off zone is only one point. After an important victory over Holstein (3:1), Alexander Blessin charges suffered two defeats in a row from Bayer (1:2) and Werder (0:2). St. Pauli still has many problems in attack - they have scored only 11 goals, according to this indicator, together with Bochum, the team is the worst in the Bundesliga.
Disqualifications and injuries
The recent failures are largely due to the huge losses in the team. Today, Ahlers, Burchert, Zoller, Voll, Mets, Wagner, Metcalf, Saad and Banks will be unable to help their team due to injuries. In addition, Smith appearance on the field is questionable.
Interesting trends for betting
- St. Pauli have lost in the first half in three of their last four matches
- St. Pauli have lost five of their last seven away matches in the Bundesliga
Estimated line-up: Vasil - Val, Nemeth, Dzvigala - Saliakas, Bukhalfa, Irvin, Troy - Afolayan, Eggestein, Guilavogui.

11.00Tip and bets
Stuttgart have improved significantly recently, entered the top 6 and clearly do not intend to stop there. St. Pauli is experiencing significant problems with the squad, Blessin does not have much opportunity for rotation and for using various tactical schemes. In addition, the "pirates" are not very successful in attack, and without goals scored it is impossible to count on a positive outcome against the "Swabians".
Our prediction is a victory for Stuttgart with an Asian handicap (-1) at odds of 1.75
Bet on total
When choosing a bet on the total, we start from Stuttgart, which plays open football. Over the course of six matches in a row with the participation of the Swabians in all tournaments, more than two goals have been scored. We do not expect this series to be interrupted today.
The second bet is total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.67
Bet on corners
Stuttgart will clearly be the number one team on their home field and will spend a lot of time at the opponent goal. There is a high probability that the hosts will win with a margin on corners.
Prediction: Stuttgart win on corners with a handicap of (-2.5) with odds of 1.90
