Tip and bets
Stuttgart are in a dangerous situation, but so far it is not hopeless for the Swabians - just one victory can raise their chances for survival. Hosts have no place to retreat, so they will have to take risks in order to get a much needed victory - Bochum are not so strong on away matches, so Stuttgart should be able to get a positive result.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) on Stuttgart
Stuttgart are clearly out of form now, but they are not changing their offensive strategy, so even in unsuccessful matches they rarely leave the pitch scoreless. Bochum concede many goals on away matches, so hosts will probably score as well. But Swabians are too vulnerable on defense, so we are expecting a high-scoring game.
Our second bet is on total over 2.5 goals
