Stuttgart - St. Pauli: betting tip (cf 3.40) and bets on the Bundesliga match

Current form

Stuttgart entered the new season with a Super Cup match, in which they expectedly lost to Bayern Munich (1:2). The score on the scoreboard does not fully reflect how events unfolded on the field. Munich had full control of the initiative and should have scored much more. In the future, there was no tangible progress in the game of the Swabs.

With great difficulty, Sebastian Hoeness's team reached the 1/32 finals of the German Cup against Eintracht Braunschweig only in a penalty shootout. It should be noted that we conceded two goals in regular time in that meeting, and then also a goal in extra-time.

Defensive problems are also evident on a regular basis in the Bundesliga. On the road, Stuttgart conceded two goals from Union in the first round, losing by a score of 1:2. We managed to win back only against Borussia Monchengladbach (1-0). However, the next game in the championship was a 1-3 away defeat to Freiburg. The Schwabs conceded all three goals after the 81st minute, and before that they were leading 1-0. They had another inexplicable failure in defense. As a result, after three rounds played, Stuttgart is in 12th place with three points and does not look like a contender for one of the European Cup tickets.

Disqualifications and injuries

Forwards Denise Undave and Silas Mvumpa will miss the match due to injuries.

Interesting betting trends

• Stuttgart have been defeated in six of their last eight Bundesliga home matches.
• Stuttgart has not lost in the first half in four of the last five matches.
• At least three goals have been scored in seven of Stuttgart's last ten league games.

The approximate line–up: Alexander Nübel – Maximilian Mittelstadt, Finn Yelch, Jeff Chabot, Josha Wagnan - Bilal El-Hannus, Angelo Stiller, Badredin Bouanani, Atakan Karazor, Jamie Leeuwling – Ermedin Demirovich.

Current form

St. Pauli does not have a truly strong squad to compete on equal terms with top rivals in the Bundesliga, but so far at the start of the season it is performing above all praise and definitely deserves the role of a strong middle man. There are three rounds left, and the Pirates have not lost a single game. With seven points scored, the team is in fourth place in the table and only lags behind Borussia Dortmund from second place in terms of additional indicators.

It was with bumblebees that Alexander Blessin's wards opened the season in the championship and snatched a 3-3 draw in that meeting, taking advantage of the opponent's removal. In the second round, in a crucial derby at someone else's stadium, the Pirates confidently beat Hamburg with a score of 2:0. Next was a home match against Augsburg (2:1). As you can see, St. Pauli is playing more open football this season, consistently scoring more than one goal, and creating a decent number of dangerous chances at other people's gates. This is a far cry from the team that relied strictly on defense last season.

The only unimpressive match St. Pauli played was in the 1/32 finals of the German Cup against Eintracht from Norderstedt. The opponents in that meeting were unable to hit each other's goal in either regular or extra time. Only in the penalty shootout did the Pirates turn out to be more accurate and reached the 1/16 finals.

Disqualifications and injuries

St. Pauli's injured list includes midfielder Jackson Irvine and forward Ricki-Jade Jones.

Interesting betting trends

• In 24 of the last 27 matches of St. Pauli, at least three offsides were recorded.
• St. Pauli has not lost away in five of the last six Bundesliga matches.
• In the opening three rounds of the Bundesliga, the Pirates consistently scored at least two goals.

The approximate line–up: Nikola Vasil - Hauke Wahl, Eric Smith, Adam Dzwigala – Arkadiusz Pyrka, James Sands, Danel Sinani, Joel Chima Fujita, Luis Oppi – Andrea Untongi, Matias Pereira Laje.
