Stuttgart – Young Boys Tip | Europa League, Matchday 8 on Thursday, 29/01/26 at 21:00 CET
The starting position on the last preliminary round matchday of the Europa League is clear. If VfB Stuttgart wants to finish in the top eight, a win against Young Boys Bern is imperative in the home game against Young Boys Bern. But even then, the Swabians are dependent on multi-part support.
VfB will therefore hardly be able to avoid the playoffs – problems that Bern would like to have. In 23rd place, the playoff participation of the Swiss is hanging by a thread. Realistically, YB must win in Stuttgart.
This is also the main reason why I have the classic “Both teams to score” in mind in my Stuttgart Young Boys tip. The odds of about 1.80 at Merkur Bets are an excellent deal in my opinion.
Stuttgart vs. Young Boys AI predictions:
Of course, our AI model doesn’t let VfB Stuttgart out of its sight for a second in the Europa League and provides you with further tip recommendations in its Stuttgart Young Boys AI prediction.
First, the digital brain expands my tip and builds the combination “Win Stuttgart & Both Teams Score”. The odds at about 2.60 are actually outstanding. Only the fact that VfB couldn’t approach the game with the very last consequence gives me a bit of a headache.
Predicted chance of winning:
| Victory Stuttgart |

Victory Young Boys |
| 70% |

10% |
Since Bern is forced into the offensive and VfB thinks offensively anyway, the bet “Over 2.5 goals” makes sense, of course. The odds at betting providers with PayPal scratch the 1.50 mark and are a clear safety-first approach.
The third selection of AI is interesting. “Draw at half-time” brings it to a strong odds of about 2.70 and could be something for a NEO.bet freebet. A 1-1 draw at half-time really wouldn’t surprise me.
