VfB Stuttgart vs FC Koln Betting Tips &— Stuttgart to Win

This season in the Bundesliga, VFB Stuttgart has emerged as an unexpected sensation. They are currently positioned third in the division and are on track for a much-anticipated return to the Champions League. Sebastian Hoeneß’s team has made a strong impression with their fluid, offensive style of play.

VFB is having their best season in more than ten years in Germany’s premier league. They are five points ahead of Dortmund, who is in fourth place, and just four points behind Bayern, who is in second place. Despite a challenging period in December where they only won one out of five league matches over four weeks, the hosts have bounced back and claimed victories in their last four league games.

VFB, being a threat in the final third, have netted 13 goals in their previous four league games. They are likely to be confident about securing another victory against a Koln team that’s having a tough time.

The team currently in the relegation play-off position, Koln, has arrived at the MHPArena. They have had a challenging season, securing only 16 points from 22 matches played. When playing away, Timo Schulz’s squad has managed to gather a mere seven points from 11 matches.

Recent matches have seen Stuttgart dominate Koln, winning three of their last four encounters. Given that Stuttgart has won nine out of 11 league games at home this season, only losing one, it’s reasonable to anticipate a similar result.

Ultimately, anything other than a comfortable home win would be a surprise. I expect Stuttgart to take the points and they should be able to score at least a couple of goals in the process.
