Potential Match-Winners
- Deniz Undav (Stuttgart): Leads the line with 11 goals, 3 assists and an exceptional 19 big chance assists. Undav averages 4.4 shots and 4.4 penalty area touches per game, and is involved in almost every major attacking move for Stuttgart.
- Ermedin Demirovic (Stuttgart): Five goals and a shot accuracy of 50%. Offers a direct threat and can convert when given a chance.
- Danel Sinani (St Pauli): Three goals from 20 games, but with only 0.2 assists per game and a shot accuracy of 50%. He remains St Pauli’s main hope up front but lacks the supply line enjoyed by the opposition’s forwards.
Head-to-Head: Last 3 Meetings

| 03/05/25 | St Pauli 0-1 Stuttgart | Bundesliga |
| 21/12/24 | Stuttgart 0-1 St Pauli | Bundesliga |
Will Stuttgart’s attacking power prove too much for St Pauli?
Stuttgart’s blend of creativity, finishing and control make them clear favourites on both current form and season-long stats. St Pauli have struggled to stem the tide defensively and lack a consistent goal threat. All signs point to another strong away performance from Stuttgart, and we’re backing them to take the points at 8/11 with BetVictor (57.9% implied probability).
