Stuttgart vs Union Berlin Prediction & Betting Tips (6 December)

Forced to play on several tables this season after being able to secure 2nd place last year and a ticket for the Champions League, this Stuttgart team does not experience the same success as last year. In difficulty on the European scene where it only occupies 27th place in the ranking out of the 36 entered after its rout experienced on the pitch of the Red Star of Belgrade last week 5-1, the VfB also encounters some problems in the championship . Beaten by Eintracht Frankfurt 2-3, the Swabians found their smile again by dominating bottom-placed Bochum 2-0 before snatching a point against Werder Bremen last weekend 2-2. In the ranking, Sebastian Hoeness' players are therefore in the soft underbelly, in 9th position. This week, Stuttgart challenged Jahn Regensburg in the 1/8 final of the German Cup and they won their duel without any problem 3-0.

Unlike their opponent of the day, Union Berlin does not have the leisure to be able to defend its colors on a European scale and it must therefore concentrate all its efforts on the championship, especially since it very quickly took the door in the German Cup where it was taken out by Arminia Bielefeld 2-0 at the end of October. Also in the tough Bundesliga in recent weeks, the capital's players have only taken one point in the last 4 days played against Bayern 3-0, Friborg 0-0, Wolfsburg 1-0 and finally the Bayer Leverkusen 1-2 . As a result, in the rankings, the Iron Men were relegated to 11th place.

Already absent on Tuesday in the cup, the French defender Zagadou, the unused this season Raimund, the formidable German international Undav (5 goals), the precious El Bilal Touré (2 goals) and the replacements Lewelling and Al-Dakhil should not be able to hold out their place this Friday evening. Coach Sebastian Hoeness can still rely on a few quality players, such as Bosnian striker Demirovic, who has returned to good form with a double scored on the last day. He has also scored 7 goals in the Bundesliga. Furthermore, ex-Rennais Rieder (1 goal, 3 assists in the Bundesliga) and French striker Enzo Millot (3 goals, 2 assists, cup scorer this week) are also candidates for a place in the starting 11.

The Berliners, for their part, should make the trip to Baden Württemberg without the young goalkeeper Stein, his competitor for the position Schwolow, the defender Ogbemudia and the striker Ilic who are still not recovered from their respective physical problems. Absent last week, defense boss Diogo Leite is not guaranteed to be able to play this evening. Offensively, we should find the interesting Hollerbach (2 goals) and the former Rémois and Rennais Siebatcheu in particular even if it is the Korean Jeong Weooyeong (2 goals) who scored the only goal for his team during the last 4 days.
