Command Analysis

VfB Stuttgart

Current form
Stuttgart is having a weak season, although there were hopes in the betting tips that after relegation from the Champions League it would be possible to gain momentum in the Bundesliga. At the moment, the Swabians are winless in four rounds in a row, and the calendar, with the exception of the match with Bayern, was far from the most difficult. So, in this unsuccessful stretch, there were draws with championship outsiders Hoffenheim (1:1) and Holstein (2:2). Sebastian Hoeness's team has obvious problems defensively right now – they haven't been able to win back seven rounds in a row. For the upcoming match, Stuttgart is only in tenth place in the table, five points behind the European Cup six.
Disqualifications and injuries
Riddle, Chase, Narti and Raymond are injured. Stergiu will serve his suspension. The appearance of Al-Dakhil on the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In four of the last five matches, Stuttgart has been at odds with its rivals in the opening 45 minutes.
- In seven of Stuttgart's previous nine Bundesliga matches, both teams scored goals.
Approximate composition: Nübel – Wagnoman, Yelch, Chabot, Mittelstedt– Leveling, Stiller, Karazor, Fürich–Voltemade, Demirovich.

Bayer Leverkusen

Current form
Bayer couldn't match Bayern in the 1/8 finals, losing in two matches with the score 0:3 and 0:2, respectively. In between these matches, there was also a 0-2 home defeat to Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga. Thus, the series of failures reached three matches, and during this period it was not possible to score a single goal. In the standings, the wards of Xabi Alonso firmly hold the second place, breaking away from the nearest pursuer by eight points. The gap from Bayern Munich is nine points, but today, if they win, it can be reduced to six points, as the Munich team lost points with the Union in this round. It should be noted that Bayer is the only team in the Bundesliga that has not suffered a single defeat on the road since the beginning of the season – seven wins and five draws.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hermoso, Belosian, Terje, Tella and Wirtz will not play today due to injuries. Undoubtedly, the loss of Wirtz is noticeable, without him, as can be seen from recent matches, little is gained in attack.
Interesting betting trends
- In three of the last five games, Bayer has not lost in the first half.
- Bayer hadn't conceded more than one goal in six of the eight previous away matches in the Bundesliga.
Approximate composition: Hradecky – Mukiele, Ta, Inkapye – Frimpong, Jaka, Palacios, Grimaldo– Garcia, Adly – Chic.

9.00Tip and bets
Both teams are far from being at their peak right now, but let's give preference to the guests, who are the bookmakers' favorites. First of all, in our opinion, motivation can play a key role today. Bayern lost points in this round, and Bayer, accordingly, has a chance to reduce the gap from the leader to six points. Plus, the pharmacists have been playing away successfully throughout the season, and they haven't lost a single game in other arenas. It is unlikely that the current Stuttgart, with its defensive problems, will stand up even taking into account the home field factor.
Our betting tip is that Bayer will win by a factor of 2.34
Bet on the total
Stuttgart has obvious defensive problems, which the team is trying to compensate for by attacking. It is no coincidence that at least three goals were scored in four of the previous five matches of the Swabians. We think Bayer will break its scoring drought with such an opponent today, and score more than once.
The second bet is a total of more than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.72
Betting on corners
Let's pay attention to the stable trend in angular. In nine of the ten previous face-to-face matches on the Stuttgart field in the Bundesliga, the opponents played at least 10 serves from the corner flag, which we are waiting for this time.
Bet: the total number of corners is more than 9.5 with a coefficient of 1.80
