View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Bayer have seen both teams score in 67% of their home matches and have yet to keep a clean sheet, conceding an average of 1.67 goals, which gives Stuttgart a genuine chance of scoring. The visitors average just 1.0 goals away from home, but their xG stands at 1.83, meaning they create more chances than their goals tally suggests. Bayer, meanwhile, score an average of 2.0 goals at home, while Stuttgart concede 2.0 goals away, with opponents’ xG at 2.12—strongly supporting the case for a home goal. Caution is warranted, however, as both teams scored in only 40% of the sides’ last five matches. Even so, Bayer’s attacking record and the hosts’ lack of home clean sheets tip the prediction towards BTTS - Yes.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Bayer Leverkusen score an average of 2.0 goals at home, while Stuttgart concede 2.0 away from home, which points to goals for the hosts. The visitors create chances worth an average of 1.83 xG, and Bayer have not kept a clean sheet at home, so Stuttgart also have a chance to score. Bayer’s last five matches have averaged 3.8 goals, compared with 2.6 in Stuttgart’s games; Over 1.5 goals landed in 67% and 75% of their matches, respectively, under the conditions analyzed. The Over 2.5 goals line has less support, as Stuttgart went over it in 50% of such matches, compared with 67% for Bayer. Therefore, Over 1.5 goals is the strongest pick, with a projected total of 3.45 goals.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Leverkusen have won 4 of their last 5 matches, scoring an average of 2.4 goals, while Stuttgart have won 2 matches and averaged 1.6 goals. At home, the hosts average 0.67 goals before the break, compared with just 0.25 for Stuttgart away; the visitors have also been trailing at half-time in 2 of their 4 away matches. Leverkusen’s full-time win is supported by their average of 2.0 goals scored at home against Stuttgart’s 2.0 goals conceded away, as well as the hosts’ xG of 1.87 compared with the 2.12 xG allowed by the visitors. In their last five matches, Leverkusen have won the second half 3 times, while Stuttgart have lost it 3 times, strengthening the case for the hosts to maintain their lead. A half-time draw remains a serious alternative, but the hosts’ advantage in goalscoring and form makes 1/1 the most likely HT/FT outcome.
