Borussia M'gladbach @ VfB Stuttgart - August 30, 2025

The VfB Stuttgart will beat the Borussia M’gladbach. The total will go over.

When analyzing the offensive capabilities of these two teams, Stuttgart’s metrics clearly present them as the stronger attacking side. They average 1.9 goals scored per match, significantly outpacing M’gladbach’s 1.6 goals. With about 13.7 shots per game, Stuttgart is also generating more opportunities, managing 5.1 shots on target. In contrast, M’gladbach struggles with just 12.1 shots and 4.5 on target. This statistic suggests Stuttgart is likely to exploit their chances more effectively, directly correlating to an increased likelihood of scoring multiple goals in this matchup.

Defensively, both teams commit similar fouls, with Stuttgart at 10.5 and M’gladbach at 10.0. However, Stuttgart’s higher passing accuracy of 83 percent implies greater control over the game, allowing them to dictate play rather than consistently defending. This becomes crucial when striving for a higher-scoring result. Combined with M’gladbach’s vulnerability in goal, given their lesser average goals conceded, the scenario points towards Stuttgart likely dominating the match. Thus, I forecast a victorious outcome for Stuttgart with a match total exceeding the expected aggregate.
