Stuttgart will be looking to put pressure on Bayern Munich this weekend when they chase a fifth win in six matches. However, they will come up against a Wolfsburg side that have been challenging to beat since the winter break in the Bundesliga.
Bundesliga Preview
It has been a great season to this point for Stuttgart, and they appear to be on track to secure a Champions League spot this term. The German side currently sits third in the standings, and they have picked up victories in four of their last five matches. A victory this weekend could see them end the round within three points of Bayern Munich in the standings.
However, a return to form will be required this weekend after they were only able to play out a 1-1 draw last weekend. The equalising goal that they conceded in that fixture was against the run of play, as Stuttgart dominated proceedings and enjoyed 75% of the possession. But, a return to winning ways will be required on Saturday.
Wolfsburg have been a tough nut to crack in the Bundesliga in recent weeks after playing out draws in four of their last five matches. The German side have struggled for victories over that period after failing to claim maximum points and losing on one occasion.
That ensures that they remain toward the foot of the standings at this stage of the season, as they are just eight points clear of the bottom three places. However, a return to form could enhance their chances of finishing the season in the top half. A win this weekend against Stuttgart could see them end the round as high as tenth in the Bundesliga.
Wolfsburg vs Stuttgart Head to Head
Stuttgart landed a 3-1 win in the reverse clash between these sides this term, which ended a three-game winless run against their rivals. However, Stuttgart are without an away victory against their rivals since a 2-0 win in December 2021. Wolfsburg won this exact fixture 3-2 last term.
Wolfsburg vs Stuttgart Prediction
Stuttgart don’t have the best record in this fixture, but they have been incredibly difficult to beat throughout the season to this point. Therefore, it could be worth siding with the away team to claim maximum points in this fixture on the road to increase the pressure on second-place Bayern Munich.
