Borussia Mönchengladbach vs VfB Stuttgart: Match Prediction
The home side can boast only one win in their last five league matches (one draw, three defeats), and that victory came against a relegation-threatened opponent. Even home advantage has not helped the team to collect points consistently this season: the aforementioned win is only one of two home victories. The side also struggle historically against VfB Stuttgart, failing to win in 9 of the last 12 head-to-head Bundesliga meetings.
VfB Stuttgart, on the other hand, have matched their longest unbeaten run in the current championship, and given the opponent’s form the chances of continuation are fairly high. It should be noted that during this run the team failed to score only against Hoffenheim, who rank in the top three for defensive reliability. However, there are defensive issues for the side coached by Sebastian Hoeness: the club conceded in 9 of their last 11 Bundesliga matches, so Borussia Mönchengladbach will have chances.
Given these facts, our prediction:
Prediction: VfB Stuttgart Not To Lose And Over 1.5 Goals
* The starting lineup shown for each team is from its previous match in this competition.
