Stuttgart vs Bayern Munich prediction: GERMANY: Super Cup betting tips on match 2025-08-15 18:30.
[p]After missing out on the German Supercup for the first time since 2011 last season, Bayern Munich return for the renamed Franz Beckenbauer Supercup for this Saturday’s clash with Stuttgart.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Making their second successive appearance in the Supercup final, Stuttgart will be looking to avenge their defeat on penalties against Bayer Leverkusen 12 months ago. That final was held at Leverkusen’s BayArena, but Stuttgart have home advantage in this year’s final. That’s not necessarily a blessing though given the Swabians lost seven of their last ten home games (W3) to close out last season. With 90% of the tickets for this showdown, and having lost only Enzo Millot from their strongest side from last season, boss Sebastian Hoeneß will be looking to lead Stuttgart to a first Supercup success since 1992.[/p]
[p]There hasn’t been much of an off-season for Bayern, who returned to pre-season less than a month after their quarter-final exit from the Club World Cup in early July. That disappointment prompted Vincent Kompany to dip his toe into the transfer market and spend big to recruit Luis DĂaz from Liverpool. The Belgian boss will be hoping his new winger can help Bayern preserve their nine-match unbeaten domestic away run which dates back to December 2024 (W6, D3). Not only that, the record ten-time winners have added incentive to win the trophy for the first time since 2022 as it’s the first since it was renamed in honour of their legendary player.[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Bayern Munich have faced Stuttgart more often than any other side in the club’s history (162). They’ve also won a club-high 95 historical games against the Swabians (D29, L38), including four of the last five H2Hs.[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Stuttgart have not drawn any of their last 20 home games (W10, L10).[/p]
[p]Across 24 home games last season, Stuttgart kept only four clean sheets.[/p]
[p]Bayern scored 3+ goals in five of their last six domestic away games in 2024/25.[/p]
[p]Bayern have only kept one clean sheet across their last five visits to the MHPArena.[/p]
[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]Nick Woltemade has attracted interest from Bayern and ended last season by scoring in each of Stuttgart’s final four fixtures (W4) before contributing to nine goals (G6, A3) at the U21 Euros for Germany. Michael Olise closed out the 2024/25 campaign by scoring and assisting in Bayern’s last four domestic games. Including a goal on this ground in February, he’s scored eight of his last 11 club goals before half-time. [/p]
[p]Stuttgart will be without former Bayern youngster Angelo Stiller through injury. For Bayern, Jamal Musiala and Alphonso Davies are both long-term absentees.[/p]
[p]Betting Analysis[/p]
[p]With Stuttgart’s defensive frailties, backing Bayern to score 3+ goals, as they have in three of the last four H2Hs, looks a smart bet.[/p]
