Stuttgart vs Wolfsburg Prediction
Die Schwaben have just one win in the Bundesliga since November and their poor form is expected to continue in this game. Despite their poor form, they have been able to score at least one goal in their last five league games and are likely to find the back of the net in this match.
The Wolves have failed to score in two of their last five league games and have kept two clean sheets in that period as well. Five of their nine wins in the Bundesliga have come in their travels, so they will be hopeful of a positive outcome.
The visitors have been the better side in the recent meetings between the two teams and should be able to eke out a narrow win.
