Bochum vs Stuttgart Prediction & Betting Tips (20 January)

This Saturday, January 20, 2024 from 3:30 p.m. here is a new opposition as part of the 18th day of the Bundesliga in Germany, in a match of extremes where the visitors have double the points in the general ranking. Thus, the VfL Bochum 17 units will receive Stuttgart 34 points at the Vonovia Ruhrstadion in Bochum. The local team must distance itself from the red zone which is only 6 lengths away before the start of the day.

For this, we will have to be more regular, because the last 3 results saw 3 different outcomes, after an easy 3-0 success, against Union Berlin, the local club then experienced a heavy setback 4-0 at the leader of Bayer Leverkusen and last weekend a sharing of points took place against Werder Bremen 1 to 1. Facing them, stands the Stuttgart team still positioned on the podium of the elite across the Rhine thanks to a record of 11 victories in the space of 17 games. But lately, the visitors are struggling a little with 2 defeats in the last 3 games, so, after a 3-0 defeat at Bayern Munich on December 17, the team took 3 points at home against Augsburg on the same score. But a relapse took place again, last Sunday on the field of Mönchengladbach with a score of 3 goals to 1.

Bundesliga meetings between these two sides have a history of producing goals at both ends of the pitch, with this being the case in 28 of the most recent 34 clashes. Add to that the fact that both teams have scored in 12 of the previous 18 Stuttgart matches and 14 of the last 21 Bochum games at this level, and we have a recipe for action in both penalty areas.
