Bayer Leverkusen vs VfB Stuttgart Preview

Bayer Leverkusen

Leverkusen have dropped points for the third time in the last four matches. This downturn was unexpected because the club recently began to play more pragmatically. Against Bayern, for example, Xabi Alonso chose a very cautious strategy, aiming to keep things tight at the back.

Their defensive play raises questions, especially given last season’s standout success. In eight rounds, Leverkusen have already let in 15 goals. Only seven other Bundesliga clubs have conceded more.

In their recent clash with Elversberg in the DFB Pokal, over half of the regular starters were rested on the bench, though some saw limited laying time. Therefore, fatigue should not be a concern for the upcoming match and Xabi Alonso is likely to field the same lineup as in the previous Bundesliga round.

VfB Stuttgart

Stuttgart are feeling the weight of expectation after their excellent results last season. Similar to Leverkusen, the Swabians carelessly lost points, failing to press their opponents and conceding in the dying minutes.

Stuttgart quite quickly adapted to the loss of their key players this summer. The new pair of defenders have been playing quite solid, though consistency remains an issue.

In the offence, Deniz Undav has been clinical, already scoring five goals.El Bilal Touré also grabbed the spotlight last week, scoring match- winning goals against Juventus and Holstein Kiel.

Jeff Chabot was sent off in the last fixture, which rules him out for this match. He is likely to be replaced by Anrie Chase. As for the rest of the squad, there are no injury concerns.

Bayer Leverkusen vs VfB Stuttgart Prediction

  • Pick: Stuttgart or Draw
  • Odds: 2.38 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Bayer Leverkusen 2-2 VfB Stuttgart

Leverkusen generally hold an edge in H2H encounters. However, Sebastian Hoeneß has lost only once to Xabi Alonso in regular time, and that was in the DFB Pokal. Other meetings ended in a draw, with the Swabians pushing hard and coming close to a win.

After an invincible season, Leverkusen has started to lose points. Despite retaining their core players, this season Bayer have problems with consistency and the match against Werder clearly illustrated defensive discrepancies.

Neither side is in peak form right now. We think that the visitors have the resilience to challenge Leverkusen and aim for a positive result. Our prediction for this match would be Stuttgart or draw.

Bayer Leverkusen vs VfB Stuttgart Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Both Teams to Score
  • Odds: 1.57 (22Bet)

Both teams rely primarily on their attack, which can be seen in the results of their head-to-head matches. Under their current coaches, the clubs have never left the pitch without finding the back of the net.

Leverkusen’s main threat will come from Victor Boniface. The Nigerian striker continues to be the primary attacking force for the hosts. For Stuttgart, Ermedin Demirović and Deniz Undav will try to extend their goalscoring tally.

Defensively, neither team can boast of having an impenetrable defence. If we take a look at the bigger picture, 10 out of the past 11 matches ended with both teams scoring. We expect this trend to continue in this encounter. Our second betting tip for the match is both teams to score.
