Knowing how hard these teams usually play against each other, you can safely make a prediction for the Stuttgart vs Hoffenheim match. We will try to assess the playing condition of the opponents to determine who has the advantage and in what.
Stuttgart
Pellegrino Matarazzo’s charges are not very confident in the new season. Six rounds are behind, and the team has only 5 points gained and 13th place in the standings. Obviously, Stuttgart’s game is not stable. In the 5th round, Matarazzo’s team managed to lose 1-3 at home to Bayer Leverkusen. The next match was followed by a ridiculous goalless draw with Bochum. These results now raise many questions for Stuttgart.
Hoffenheim
The team of Sebastian Heness has performed slightly better than their opponent in the upcoming game. After a goalless draw against Arminia, Hoffenheim beat Wolfsburg 3-1 in the next round. With such success, Heness’ wards are now in 9th place in the standings. Hoffenheim has 8 points ahead of the match with Stuttgart.
