Premium Tips
Andy is with Stuttgart, who should win comfortably.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Stuttgart to win and both teams to score – No | 13/8 | VfB Stuttgart are a Bundesliga heavyweight welcoming Norwegian side Viking to the Mercedes-Benz-Arena, and the gulf in quality is huge. Sebastian Hoeness’s men smashed Koln 4-1 at home in their last outing and carry serious firepower. The bet needs a clean sheet, and against opponents from a smaller league, a well-drilled German defence should have the tools to shut the door. Viking have found the net recently but stepping up to face Stuttgart on the road is another matter entirely. Back the hosts to control possession, take their chances and keep Viking out for a comfortable win to nil. |
| Deniz Undav and Dzenan Pejceinovic to score anytime | 21/10 | Undav is a proven goal machine, racking up 50 goals in 104 games for Stuttgart with 148 shots on target, so backing him against limited opposition is a confident call. He thrives at home and should feast on the chances this attack creates. Pejcinovic is the ideal partner for goals, a young striker who has shown a nose for the net with eight goals during his time at Wolfsburg. With Stuttgart expected to dominate and rack up the shots, both forwards should get plenty of opportunities. In a game the hosts should win well, goals from this pair look likely. |
