There will be huge pressure on Thomas Tuchel and his Bayern Munich side this weekend, as they look to quickly get back on track after a humbling loss against Eintracht Frankfurt last Saturday. However, Stuttgart could be primed to put on a good showing.
Bundesliga Preview
It’s fair to say that Thomas Tuchel has always been under pressure at Bayern Munich to succeed, and that pressure was intensified following a disastrous result on the road last weekend against Eintracht Frankfurt. That defeat means that Bayern are now four points behind Bayer Leverkusen, but they do still have a game in hand.
It was the manner of the defeat that was most concerning from a Bayern perspective last weekend, as they were swatted aside by their out-of-form rivals. They allowed three goals in the opening 45 minutes, before two further efforts were added in the second period. The only bright spark was the effort netted by Joshua Kimmich, but it counted for very little in the grand scheme of things.
Stuttgart presents yet another huge test for Bayern this weekend, as they come into the weekend in excellent form. They currently sit third in the Bundesliga standings, but they could move up to second in the standings if they are able to claim maximum points at the Allianz Arena.
Stuttgart picked up a hard-fought point in their previous match against Bayer Leverkusen, but they likely could have stole maximum points if they were more ruthless in the final third. Regardless, they have now won three of their last four matches in the league, and they boast one of the best defensive records having allowed just 16 goals this term.
Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart head to Head
Bayern Munich are unbeaten in their last eight league matches against Stuttgart, winning on six occasions over that period. However, each of the previous two meetings between the sides at the Allianz Arena have ended in entertaining 2-2 draws.
Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart Prediction
Stuttgart have enjoyed their recent trips to the Allianz Arena, and their recent form would give them huge confidence coming into this clash on Sunday. Therefore, we could see the points being shared in Munich this weekend, with a score draw likely to be a competitive betting angle.
