VfB Stuttgart vs Werder Bremen Prediction: Expect both teams to score

Stuttgart will want to snap a four-game losing streak when they play Werder Bremen on Sunday. Meanwhile, the visitors returned to winning ways with a 2-1 triumph against Wolfsburg last. With a new manager for the home team, the goal of the manager (Bruno Labbadia) will be to maintain Stuttgart in the top division after a somewhat challenging season. Werder, on the other hand, have had a mixed season. Stuttgart have the slightest advantage to win the match. However, BTTS is a safer bet. 

Stuttgart (WLDDLW)

Stuttgart put forth a spirited display despite losing 2-1 away to RB Leipzig on Friday after returning from the World Cup with two consecutive draws. Before this weekend's action, the hosts were unbeaten in 17 matches in all competitions under Marco Rose.

Bruno Labbadia secured his first win since re-joining the club with a 2-1 success away to SC Paderborn in the DFB-Pokal on Tuesday. Stuttgart is only a goal difference away from the bottom three heading into the weekend, but that may change if VfL Bochum or Hertha Berlin both win on Saturday. As a result, the Schalke will be keen to build on Tuesday's success by achieving a crucial league victory.

Werder Bremen (WLLLLW)

A win for Werder will cousin the team against relegation for a while. Further Bremen have conceded 21 goals in 8 away games. Werder Bremen have scored over 1.5 goals in about 60% of their away games played. The away form of Werder Bremen is not that encouraging with three loss in the last fiev matches played.

Expert Betting Tips

Considering the home form of Stuttgart, the away form of Werder Bremen, and goals conceded at home and away, Stuttgart seems to be the favourite to win the match. However, we expect Werder Bremen to also score at least a goal. The match will likely have over 2.5 goals as both teams will be playing for the win. Expect also to see more corners due to attacking play that will be on display.
