Schalke vs Stuttgart Prediction, Betting Tips & Prediction

Schalke v Stuttgart
German Bundesliga
Date: Friday, October 30, 2024
Starts at 19pm UK / 30pm CET
Venue: Veltins Arena.

Along with Mainz, the Royal Blues have been the worst team in the competition this season and, according to many experts, are destined for relegation next summer.

So far, it is the team that has conceded the most goals in the league: 19 of its five games, and in return has scored a total of just two goals, which is also the worst record in the German top flight.

Meanwhile, the Reds have been one of the most consistent sides in the league and have placed themselves at the top of the table. In fact, they remained undefeated in the contest, save for their opening match defeat against Freiburg.

Moving forward, Manuel Baum's men could have dominated h2h clashes in the recent past, but keep in mind they are not the same team and stats don't carry the same weight.

Expect Stuttgart to be the top team this Friday at the Veltins Arena.

Schalke vs Stuttgart: head-to-head (h2h)

• The last match had ended in a goalless draw. The game took place in 2019.
• The Royal Blues recorded their previous six overall wins.
• Seven years have passed since the guests won at this stadium.
• Seven of the nine previous games at this stadium have featured goals from both teams.

Schalke vs Stuttgart: prediction

Baum's charges lost 3-0 away from home on the last day, against Dortmund. Meanwhile, Pellegrino Matarazzo's men drew 1-1 at home to Koln.

As it stands, the Royal Blues are one of the two worst teams in the Bundesliga. They lost all but one of their games, and that tie was against relatively inexperienced Union Berlin.

It also conceded the most goals of all teams in the competition and was also the one that scored the least. In fact, they have a total of one official win so far in 2024, and that too in January.

On the other hand, their counterparts are unbeaten in nine of their previous ten overall clashes and are also on a run of four away wins. To name another statistic, they've scored two or more goals in each of their away games this season.

In view of these statistics, it is clear that Schalke are the big losers this weekend, and the right choice is to bet on Stuttgart's victory.
