Juventus vs VfB Stuttgart Preview
Juventus
Under the new head coach Thiago Motta, Juventus have gone unbeaten in Serie A and the Champions League. The hosts’ defence is especially worth noting. In 10 official matches, the Old Lady has conceded only four goals.
Motta managed to build a completely rejuvenated team. Juve can easily escape intense pressure from their opponents and achieve a lot of free space on the opponent’s half of the field.
However, Juventus are not efficient against defensive structures. This was confirmed against Lazio. While having a one-man advantage, they only managed to take the lead at the end of the match.
Five key players will not participate in the upcoming game. Bremer, Nico Gonzalez, Teun Koopmeiners, and Weston McKennie are all sidelined, while Michele Di Gregorio will miss the match due to a red card.
VfB Stuttgart
Stuttgart have grabbed only a single point in the Champions League so far, and the visitors are not in the best shape now. They are winless in the last four official matches and were thrashed against Bayern in their last Bundesliga fixture (0-4).
Stuttgart’s offence is proficient and diverse, as it was last season. The trio of Deniz Undav, Ermedin Demirović, and Enzo Milliot can decide the fate of any match single-handedly. However, their goalscoring rate has decreased recently.

One of the leaders of the last season, Chris Führich, is still absent due to an adductor muscle injury. We expect Jamie Leweling to start in his place.
Bet hereJuventus vs VfB Stuttgart Prediction
- Pick: Juventus to win (-1.5) Handicap
- Odds: 3.05 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Juventus 2-0 VfB Stuttgart
Stuttgart’s style is similar to Juventus’ previous two opponents in the Champions League. They are not fond of defending intensively and this makes them ideal opponents for Juventus.
Juventus are considered favourites in this encounter. The German team’s high pressing tactics are also ideal for the Old Lady. We think they will likely take advantage of the vast pace in the guests’ half of the field and create numerous chances.
At home, Juve always try to dominate the game from the first minute and we expect the same to happen in this match. Our pick would be Juventus to win with a handicap of (-1.5).
Juventus vs VfB Stuttgart Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Dušan Vlahović to Score Anytime
- Odds: 2.00 (22Bet)
The Swabians’ defence has become noticeably weaker compared to the previous season. They were unable to compensate for the loss of Waldemar Anton and Hiroki Ito.
Despite additions to the squad, none of the three centre backs have been able to show that they are up to the level of the Champions League so far. Stuttgart concede in almost every game and allow simple mistakes, making this an ideal chance for Dušan Vlahović to add another goal to his tally.

The Serbian forward has already scored seven goals in ten matches. He is one of the most crucial players for Thiago Motta and we expect him to get several opportunities in the offence. Our second betting tip for Juventus vs Stuttgart is Vlahović to score anytime.
