Bundesliga Matchday 7, Saturday, 19.10.2024 at 18:30
It’s that time of year again: The southern clash is upon us! FC Bayern will host VfB Stuttgart on Saturday evening (18:30). A favorite opponent… right? At first glance, yes, but my Bayern VfB Stuttgart tip is intended to show you how close the two teams are.
For this very reason, I believe that the clubs from Munich and Stuttgart will engage in an intense exchange of blows that will be anything but boring. I’m therefore leaning towards a very offensive affair, predicting over 2.5 goals with goals on both sides.
FCB are naturally under pressure after three competitive games without a win, but at the same time I’ll be analyzing the defensive problems of the visitors from the Neckar in detail. And how could it be otherwise, history also plays a certain role.
The Bayern VfB Stuttgart odds come to values that have been due in this duel for years: An average 1.35 meets a 7.40. But let’s be honest: The Swabians have also traveled with double-digit odds very often!
There is now a lot for me to analyze in my Bayern VfB Stuttgart analysis, because in terms of play, we could be in for an absolute cracker. And who knows, maybe the hosts will stumble!
The oddsmakers’ forecast?
It’s no surprise that FC Bayern is clearly favored, especially when playing at home. The odds for the current match are 1.35. This means that FCB are the clear favorites, but also shows: Beware of this opponent!
The club in question from Stuttgart is used to traveling to the Isar with much higher odds. Nevertheless, the guests will also know: An average of 7.50? We were usually well above that!
A draw perhaps? After all, that’s what they both like in this still young season. Should the points actually be shared on Saturday evening, odds of 5.20 can be seen with the betting providers.
KI prediction Bayern vs VfB Stuttgart: This is what ChatGPT
Of course, I also took a look at everything that ChatGPT spits out for this match. Bayern vs Stuttgart, that’s a real classic! One that is also ideal for a result bet.
And that brings me to the high-risk bet. Here the AI has come up with a 4:2 for the favorite. Realistic? Quite possible! The Swabians are very vulnerable defensively, but always score themselves. In addition, all head-to-head matches on Munich soil since the end of 2014 have featured at least four goals.
The medium risk refers to a home win despite a 0:1 handicap. Also possible! Although I’d stick to a maximum lead of two goals, a 3:1 or even 4:2 is possible.
I immediately agree with the low risk, because here the AI says: Both will score! Stuttgart have never been without a goal, and have scored at least twice in three of their last five head-to-head matches.
Analysis: Bayern vs VfB Stuttgart
The first crisis in Munich? Not in terms of play, but somehow in terms of results! Under new coach Vincent Kompany, the German record champions got off to a dream start, scoring goal after goal.
But now it’s 1:1 against Leverkusen, 0:1 in the Champions League against Aston Villa and 3:3 (equalizer in stoppage time) against Eintracht Frankfurt? Three wins in a row have not worked out!
Bayern are still top of the table, but RB Leipzig are now level on points. The 20 goals are of course still the absolute best, with three players netting three times or more.
I would particularly like to highlight the four goals scored by new signing Michael Olise, as he also scored a lot in the top flight. While many will certainly have Harry Kane in their sights for a goal bet, I’m with the young Frenchman.
Ratings analysis
There are plenty of betting options when Bayern and Stuttgart meet. One of them relates to the goalscorers. I have my eye on Ermedin Demirovic, who has already scored five times and also holds his nerve from the spot. If he nets on Saturday, odds of 3.50 are due at Bet365.
I also think it’s possible that the Swabians will surprise the record champions, go on the rampage and score the 1:0. An interesting bet, because the corresponding odds are 3.10.
Let’s start like a fire engine? Sure, but from both teams please! I can also recommend the bet that both VfB and Bayern will score before the break, a 3.20 would be the reward for this assumption.
Bayern vs VfB Stuttgart odds: Who will score the goals?
At Bet-at-Home, that would lead to odds of 2.55. But that’s not all, because there’s also an exclusive voucher waiting for you. It’s quite possible that Bayern will have to do without Jamal Musiala.
He is suffering from hip problems and is very doubtful to play at the weekend. There is also a question mark over Dayot Upamecano, as the French international could be ruled out with thigh problems. Should this be the case, Eric Dier will probably replace him.
Anyone who follows FC Bayern knows, of course, that they took a real beating in their most recent head-to-head against VfB Stuttgart, losing 3-0. Two wins from the last five games? The dominance in the south seems to be wobbling!
Who will be the first to score?
Two defeats since March 2010 actually reads like a lot, but recently the Swabians were no longer a real favorite opponent. The German record champions have only lost one league game at home since 1999.
I don’t really want to put too much weight on that, because it was matchday 34 in 2019 and Bayern already knew that they would win the trophy at the final whistle. There were plenty of goals here, by the way, with an average of 3.4 in all 160 games.
VfB Stuttgart will certainly not be traveling to Munich just to congratulate their southern rivals on their victory. Their own start was not as strong as the runners-up had hoped, and that was mainly down to their own performances
They squandered leads in both the 3-1 defeat to Freiburg and the 3-3 draw against Mainz (last-second equalizer) and made huge defensive blunders. Nevertheless: 3:1 against Gladbach and 5:1 against Dortmund, the attack compensated a lot twice.
Unfortunately, the team didn’t really want to get into a series. In the 2-2 draw against Wolfsburg, a defeat was avoided at the final whistle when Deniz Undav scored. And against Hoffenheim? The same thing happened there, and again through Undav!
VfB can’t go without conceding a goal, and have conceded at least two three times. Well, on the other hand, 15 own goals also means the third-best attack behind Leverkusen and FC Bayern.
1:3, 3:1 and 2:2? No, the three away games so far have been anything but boring! When it comes to FC Bayern, it is of course an advantage for any team to have the best personnel on board.
Chris Führung can’t be there in any case, which weakens Stuttgart considerably. The fans are also a little worried about their most important man Deniz Undav, who has been successful with the German national team.
He is suffering from muscular problems and it is not yet clear whether he will be able to take part in Munich and definitely make the starting eleven. He didn’t score in his club’s recent 3-0 win over Bayern, but he did score once.
My Bayern VfB Stuttgart tip:
Will FC Bayern win again? A win on Saturday is a must, but the runners-up are traveling from Stuttgart of all places. The Swabians stand for really spectacular games this season that never get boring.
The defense allows far too much, but with Ermedin Demirovic and Deniz Undaz they have an excellent attacking line. I probably don’t need to explain to you that Munich are always good for a few slip-ups at the back.
At the same time, however, Munich have the strongest attacking department in the 1st Bundesliga. Since the direct duels have also produced very wild results for years, I have decided on the following tip:
Both score and the 2.5 goals will be cracked!
