FC Bayern München vs VfB Stuttgart Prediction
Based on recent form and key stats, FC Bayern München come into this match as strong favorites, especially playing at home. Bayern have been dominant in possession, averaging over 70% per game, and with key playmakers like Harry Kane pulling the strings, their attack is likely to pose significant problems for Stuttgart. Bayern’s ability to score in crucial moments, particularly between 30-45 minutes, could give them an early advantage.
VfB Stuttgart, while positioned in 8th place, have shown they can be competitive, as reflected in their surprising 3-1 win over Bayern in their last meeting. However, Stuttgart’s tendency to concede late in matches (75-90 minutes) might allow Bayern to extend their lead. Stuttgart’s Ermedin Demirović will be a key player for the visitors, but Bayern’s depth and firepower should prove too much for them over 90 minutes.
Given Stuttgart’s record of BTTS in 100% of their games, there is a strong chance both teams will find the back of the net, but Bayern’s offensive firepower should be enough to secure a win.
Predicted Scoreline: FC Bayern München 3-1 VfB Stuttgart
Bayern’s attacking strength and home advantage should see them secure a comfortable win, though Stuttgart could make it interesting by getting on the scoresheet. Expect Bayern to pull away in the second half as they target Stuttgart’s late-game vulnerabilities.
