Wolfsburg vs Stuttgart Prediction and Betting Tips | September 28th 2024
The German Bundesliga returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Wolfsburg play host to Stuttgart at the Volkswagen Arena on Saturday. Both sides picked up contrasting results last time out, with Sebastian Hoeness’ men storming to an emphatic 5-1 home victory over Borussia Dortmund.
Wolfsburg were left frustrated last Sunday when they fell to a 4-3 defeat against a resillient Bayer Leverkusen side after conceding a 93rd-minute winner at the Bay Arena.
Ralph Hasenhüttl’s side have now lost all but one of their last six Bundesliga matches , with a 2-0 victory over Holstein Kiel at the Holstein-Stadion on August 31 being the exception.
While Wolfsburg will be looking to find their feet this weekend, results at home offer little optimism as they have won just two of their 11 league games at the Volkswagen Arena this year.
On the other hand, five-star Stuttgart turned in a performance of the highest quality as they hammered Borussia Dortmund 5-1 at the MHP Arena last Sunday.
This came after the 3-1 defeat at the hands of Real Madrid in their UEFA Champions League opener on September 17, which saw their four-game unbeaten run in all competitions come to an end.
Stuttgart have picked up two wins and one draw from their four Bundesliga games so far to collect seven points and sit seventh in the table, four points and six places above Saturday’s hosts.
Wolfsburg vs Stuttgart Head-To-Head and Key Numbers
- With 21 wins from the last 47 meetings between the sides, Stuttgart boasts a slightly superior record in the history of this fixture.
- Wolfsburg have picked up two fewer wins in that time, while the spoils have been shared on seven occasions.
- Stuttgart are unbeaten in all but one of their last eight league matches, picking up five wins and two draws since late April.

Wolfsburg vs Stuttgart Prediction
Fresh off the back of a resounding victory over Dortmund, Stuttgart will head into the weekend with sky-high confidence as they look to build a strong early-season form.
Despite their valiant display, Wolfsburg were left empty handed by Leverkusen last time out and we fancy them to struggle again this weekend.
