Wolfsburg vs Stuttgart prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-10-17 13:30.
[p]Wolfsburg have the perfect chance to put their miserable start to the campaign behind them against Stuttgart, one of their most favoured opponents in the competition’s history.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Appointed in summer, Paul Simonis has had a torrid start to life as Wolfsburg manager. Three successive defeats have contributed to a paltry five-point haul from his first six Bundesliga games in charge (W1, D2), with that the second-fewest anyone has collected in the club’s history across their first six top-flight matches at the helm. Such a poor start sees them begin this weekend just a point above the relegation spots, and having already equalled their club record run of 11 home league games without a victory (D7, L4), setting an outright negative record on Saturday could come with the added ignominy of ending the weekend in the bottom three.[/p]
[p]Stuttgart have dealt admirably with competing on three fronts so far this term, with the Swabians already signalling their intentions of regaining a place in the UEFA Champions League (UCL) for next season. Holding a spot in the top four after matchday six, the Swabians already have 12 points on the board (W4, L2) more than they’ve managed at this stage in 12 of their last 13 top-flight campaigns. Three successive league wins have hugely aided their positive start, and Sebastian Hoeneß’s side now have the opportunity to record a fourth successive Bundesliga victory for the first time since February 2024 – a season which ended with them securing UCL football. [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Wolfsburg have only won more Bundesliga games against Borussia Mönchengladbach (24) than against Stuttgart (23), but have won just one of their last four home H2Hs (D1, L2).[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Ahead of the round, Wolfsburg had been shown a joint-league low nine yellow cards.[/p]
[p]All three of Wolfsburg’s home games this term have produced over 10.5 total corners.[/p]
[p]Four of Stuttgart’s last five wins across all competitions came by a one-goal margin.[/p]
[p]Stuttgart’s league games this season have averaged one first-half goal per game, the second-lowest average in the league pre-round. [/p]
[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]Mohamed Amoura scored four goals across two games for Algeria in the international break, while he scored and assisted in both H2Hs against Stuttgart last season (G2, A2). Stuttgart goalkeeper Alexander Nübel is yet to record a clean sheet against Wolfsburg in six attempts (W3, D1, L2), conceding an average of two goals per game therein. [/p]
[p]Wolfsburg’s Maximilian Arnold picked up an injury in a friendly during the international break, while frontmen Ermedin Demirović and Jamie Lewelling are both ruled out for Stuttgart.[/p]
