Match Preview
There cannot be too many sides in a worse form that FC Koln, who have lost six of their last seven games and have one point in the Bundesliga, gleaned from a goalless draw at Hannover 96. It gets worse – Peter Stöger’s side have managed just two goals, and both came at home. They have been behind at half-time in five of their last six games, including the recent 2-1 home defeat by RB Leipzig.

They travel to Mercedes-Benz Arena to face a Stuttgart side, whose form does not exactly befit the stadium’s sponsor. For Hannes Wolf’s side have been more Lada-like than a fuel-injected E-Class Merc. Indeed, they have won just two of their seven games – both 1-0 home wins – and have managed just four goals in total.
Our Stuttgart vs FC Koln preview and soccer predictions suggest that a shock result could be on the cards thanks to one phenomenal historic trend and we highlight in the Stuttgart vs FC Koln predictions that going against the grain can often be rewarding and with both defences shaky at best, this may be a far more entertaining clash than expected.
Stuttgart vs FC Koln Prediction and Betting Advice
Sometimes you can throw the form book out of the window. This Bundesliga clash between Stuttgart and FC Koln could be one such occasion. It is invariably a good idea to make your own odds before looking at those offered by bookmakers. Anyone looking at FC Koln’s current form would put their soccer odds to win this game somewhere in the region of double what they are.
There is a good reason why they are shorter than they perhaps should be: History. For all their many failings, there is no more welcome tonic than a trip to Stuttgart. FC Koln are a bogey side who have picked up at least a point on 14 of their last 15 visits. They have won six of their last seven on their hosts’ home patch and earned a draw in the other.
In theory, given that Stuttgart are unbeaten at home in three outings thus far, they are the form choice. Yet the home side in this series has won just five of last 30 Bundesliga meetings and our Stuttgart vs FC Koln betting tips concludes that the visitors have had the upper hand in this fixture, so Betfred are taking a chance with their odds.
They may have scored just six goals between them in 14 matches, but there is a good reason to believe there will be a few goals in this Bundesliga clash. FC Koln are unbeaten in their last 11 Bundesliga visits and have scored at least twice in six of their last seven visits.
Nine of the last 15 meetings have produced three goals or more, and there has been an average of 3.14 goals scored in the last seven meetings in Stuttgart.
Neither side’s defence is solid, with FC Koln shipping 15 goals in seven games, while Stuttgart have conceded nine.
That suggests that both teams will feel they can stick away a chance or two and at the current soccer odds, putting faith in the fact that there will be over 2.5 goals scored represents one of the better Stuttgart vs FC Koln bets. Coral are a shade of odds against and that represents cracking value.
