Fourth-placed Stuttgart host Werder Bremen in a Bundesliga encounter that pits one of the league’s sharpest attacks against a side fighting for survival.
Stuttgart have dominated recent meetings and come into this match with far greater firepower, while Werder Bremen’s defensive frailties have cost them throughout the campaign. Kick-off is at 14:30 CET on Sunday 26 April at the MHPArena, where Stuttgart look to cement their top-four standing and keep up their formidable home record.
Best Bets & Predictions
Based on Stuttgart’s prolific scoring and Werder Bremen’s tendency to concede, here are our top betting recommendations for this match. We’re particularly confident in a high-scoring contest, with Stuttgart’s attacking stats and Bremen’s defensive record providing a strong statistical edge.
| Our Prediction | Odds & Bookmaker | Confidence | Why We’re Backing It |
|---|---|---|---|
| Over 3.5 Total Goals | 11/10 @ Bet365 (47.6%) | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ | Stuttgart games average over 3.4 goals per match this season, and Bremen’s leaky defence (53 conceded in 30) suggests more goals. Stuttgart average 2+ goals per home game and have the highest shot accuracy (53.5%) in the league. There could be real value in a high-scoring clash at this price. |
| Werder Bremen Draw No Bet | 10/3 @ Bet365 (23.1%) | ⭐⭐⭐ | While Stuttgart are favourites, Bremen have won two of the last five head-to-heads (including away), and DNB covers the draw. With Stuttgart missing several big chances (54 this season), there’s a case for a surprise if Bremen can frustrate early. The price offers solid cover for the risk. |

Potential Match-Winners
- Deniz Undav (Stuttgart): 18 goals in 25 matches (0.72 per game), 5 assists, plus 6 big chances created and 11 scored. He remains Stuttgart’s most consistent attacking threat, though his shot accuracy (39.1%) suggests he needs multiple chances per game.
- Jamie Leweling (Stuttgart): Offers pace and pressing; key to Stuttgart’s high possession regains in the final third (team total: 130).
- Justin Njinmah (Werder Bremen): Brings energy in attack, crucial for Bremen’s counter-attacks when they win the ball high up (team total: 132 possession regains in the final third).
- Victor Boniface (Werder Bremen): Will be a focal point if Bremen look to exploit Stuttgart’s high line; look for involvement in transitions and set pieces.

Conclusion: Stuttgart’s Attack vs Bremen’s Resolve

Our top tip remains Over 3.5 Total Goals at 11/10 (47.6%) with Bet365—the stats suggest goals are on the cards, and the price is hard to ignore for value hunters.
