Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart Preview

Bayer Leverkusen

One of the standout teams in Europe from last season return to domestic action on Saturday, as Bayer Leverkusen compete in the Super Cup. Xabi Alonso’s side enjoyed a memorable 2023-24 campaign, landing the Bundesliga title for the first time in history. It also marked a first major honour since 1993, and their campaign ended on a high point with success in the DFB Pokal.

Emulating that success will be a huge order for Leverkusen this term, as a resurgent Bayern Munich will have their sights set on the Bundesliga title. 

It has been a mixed pre-season for Leverkusen, but they have added some quality players to the squad, including Spanish international Aleix Garcia. However, before making a Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart prediction, it is worth considering that they have failed to win their last three pre-season matches.

Stuttgart

Another of the surprise packages in Germany last term was Stuttgart, who concluded the 2023-24 Bundesliga as the runners-up. Sebastian Hoeness will be preparing for a return to the Champions League with the team for the first time since the 2009-10 season. 

Such was the level of their impressive performances, Stuttgart was the most represented team in the German squad for the EUROs.

However, emulating that feat of finishing second last term could be a tough ask after losing top-scorer Serhou Guirassy to Borussia Dortmund. Waldemar Anton also departed the club in the summer. But, Stuttgart have been active in terms of incomings, with big money spent on strikers Ermedin Demirovic and Deniz Undav

Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart Head-to-Head Statistics

Before making a Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart prediction, it is important to consider that three of the last four matches between these sides have ended in draws, including a 2-2 tie in April. However, Stuttgart have failed to beat Leverkusen in 12 matches. 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart Player Focus

Stuttgart’s influential Guirassy departed for Dortmund this summer, meaning that there will be pressure on Demirovic to lead the line for the German side this term. 

The 26-year-old looks more than capable of filling the void after enjoying a productive campaign with Augsburg last term, netting 15 goals in 33 Bundesliga appearances. 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart Tactical Analysis

This should be a competitive Super Cup showdown between Leverkusen and Stuttgart this weekend. However, Leverkusen’s defensive issues have been highlighted throughout pre-season to this point after conceding eight goals in four matches. 

Stuttgart have shown excellent attacking quality throughout the summer, and they come into the Super Cup after netting 14 goals across their last three matches. If Leverkusen are to have any hope of winning the Super Cup, they will need to be more defensively solid than they have been in recent weeks. 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart Prediction

  • Football pick: Stuttgart & BTTS
  • Odds: 5.8 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Leverkusen 1-3 Stuttgart

It has been a disappointing pre-season to this point for Leverkusen, and things may get slightly worse in the Super Cup this weekend based on their poor defensive record in recent matches. 

Stuttgart have looked incredibly efficient in the final third, and they were excellent when recording a 4-0 home win over Athletic Bilbao on Saturday. A promising start to the domestic campaign could be on the agenda for last season’s runners-up. 

Bayer Leverkusen vs Stuttgart Betting Tip

  • Football Pick: Robert Andrich Total Yellow Cards Over (0.5)
  • Odds: 3.5 (22Bet)

Both Stuttgart and Leverkusen like to play aggressively, meaning that the Super Cup will be played at an intense level this weekend. 

Therefore, a chance could be taken on Robert Andrich to be carded on Saturday. The German international picked up eight bookings across all competitions last term.
