Stuttgart vs. Wolfsburg: Match Prediction
Matches involving Wolfsburg are among the top three in terms of scoring in the current championship, with an average of 3.7 goals per game. Ralph Hasenhüttl's side has excelled in attack, scoring in 19 of 21 Bundesliga matches in the 2024/25 season. Notably, they have netted 14 goals in their last six away games in this tournament. However, Wolfsburg has conceded 35 goals, and among the top half of the table, only Freiburg has conceded more (36).
Stuttgart also plays high-scoring matches, especially at home, where at least three goals have been scored in 12 of their last 15 league games under Sebastian Hoeness. Additionally, head-to-head meetings with Wolfsburg have tended to favor attack over defense, with fewer than three goals scored in only 2 of their last 8 Bundesliga encounters.
My prediction: Total over 2.5 goals
