Match Analysis

Leverkusen enters this match after a mixed bag of recent results, having secured two victories in their last three games, notably a significant away win against RB Leipzig. However, they experienced a setback with a loss to Augsburg. Their recent performances are underscored by an impressive average of 2.6 goals scored per game in their last five matches, while maintaining a solid defensive record by conceding only 0.4 goals on average. On the other hand, Stuttgart's recent form includes a comprehensive 4-0 triumph over Werder Bremen and a goalless draw against Hoffenheim, though they suffered a heavy defeat to Bayern Munich. Stuttgart has been prolific in front of goal, averaging 2.4 goals in their last five games, but their defense remains a concern, conceding 1.6 goals on average. Their ability to keep two clean sheets in the last five matches could provide a boost against Leverkusen's attacking prowess.

Final Prediction

Leverkusen's robust attacking form and sturdy defense give them a significant edge heading into this fixture against Stuttgart. Their higher expected goals and fewer goals conceded in recent performances back their status as favorites. A key factor to watch will be whether Stuttgart's defense can withstand Leverkusen's attacking onslaught, particularly given their vulnerability against top-tier opponents. Football fans can expect a thrilling battle, with Leverkusen likely to capitalize on their home advantage.
