VfB Stuttgart vs Bayer Leverkusen Betting Tips &— BTTS and Over 2.5 Goals
In an unexpectedly crucial match between two teams performing better than expected in the first half of the Bundesliga season, the third-placed team hosts the first.
Stuttgart is currently in excellent form, further bolstered by their 2:0 midweek win against Borussia Dortmund in the DFB Pokal. They have secured victories in their last four games overall, as well as their last four home games.
Indeed, Stuttgart has shown remarkable strength in the forward areas during their home games. The team, under the leadership of Sebastian Hoeneß, has scored at least two goals in all seven home league matches this season. VFB has scored a remarkable total of 22 goals in these seven matches, averaging over three goals per game.
Similarly, Leverkusen will come armed with a strong offense this Sunday. Xabi Alonso’s team has consistently scored at least two goals in all their six away games in the Bundesliga this season. On the road, they have scored a total of 16 goals, averaging over 2.5 goals per game. Given these stats, it’s not surprising that Leverkusen has garnered 16 out of the possible 18 points in their away games this season.
Considering the superb form of both teams, we have to expect a particularly competitive and exciting match this Sunday. With that in mind, I expect BTTS and over 2.5 goals to land while I also like the chances of at least four goals scored in Sunday’s big Bundesliga battle.
