Current form
Stuttgart noticeably slowed down towards the finish line, having won only one victory in the Bundesliga in the previous five rounds. As a result, the Swabians lost the handicap and allowed Bayer and Hoffenheim to catch up. At the start of the 33rd round, three teams have 58 points each and sit down for the fourth place in the league. In the last game, Sebastian Hoeness's team played against Hoffenheim on the road and parted in peace (3:3), losing 1:3, and equalized the score at the very end, when they were already playing ten. Stuttgart has traditionally performed strongly on its own field, has 36 points in the asset since the beginning of the season, this is the third indicator in the Bundesliga.
Disqualifications and injuries
Karazor will serve his suspension. Yelch and Al-Dakhil are in question.

Current form
Bayer, unlike the upcoming opponent, increased in the home straight, scored two consecutive wins and caught up with direct competitors for the fourth place in points, and due to additional indicators, they were ahead of Stuttgart and Hoffenheim in the table. Leverkusen defeated Cologne 2-1 on the road and Leipzig 4-1 on home turf. In general, Kasper Uhlmann's team improved significantly in the end, they got four wins in the last five rounds, and the only defeat was against Augsburg on their own field (1:2).
Disqualifications and injuries
Therriet will not play today due to injury. Vasquez's entry into the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
Approximate line–up: Flekken – Andrich, Kuansa, Tapsoba – Kalbret, Palacios, Garcia, Grimaldo – Maza, Tella - Chic.
Largely due to the factor of the home field, Stuttgart gets the status of the favorite in the line of bookmakers. In terms of performance and results, Bayer is noticeably superior to the opponent at the moment, and in the key match for a ticket to the Champions League, he will clearly have no less chance of three points than Schwabs today. The hosts had only one victory in the previous five rounds, and there was an obvious decline in the game and constant defensive problems. The pharmacists allowed themselves only one misfire in the previous five rounds, when they sensationally lost to Augsburg at home. Taking into account the current handicap and odds, we recommend betting on guests.
Our betting tip is that Bayer will win with an Asian handicap (0) by a factor of 2.25
Bet on the total
In fact, a ticket to the Champions League for next season is at stake. No one will take unnecessary risks and play without looking at their own goal in such a duel. Accordingly, we do not expect an abundance of goals scored. Moreover, in the last five matches, Bayer has only once bet on a total of more than 2.5 goals.
The second bet is a total of less than 3.5 goals with a coefficient of 2.00
Betting on corners
On the corners, we note a promising trend among the guests. Bayer performed more corners than their opponents in 10 of the previous 12 matches. Obviously, there is an underestimation of Leverkusen in this indicator in the line of bookmakers.
The betting tip is for Bayer to win by corner with a coefficient of 2.85
1st halfbet: total less than 1.5 goals
In three of the five previous face-to-face meetings, no more than one goal was scored in the opening 45 minutes.
Bet Goals in both halves – yes
In four consecutive matches with Bayer Leverkusen, goals were scored in each half.
The exact score is 1:2
Bayer Leverkusen have won two of their last three victories with a one-goal advantage.
Stuttgart beat Bayer Leverkusen 3-1 at the Mercedes-Benz Arena. Ales Garcia put the visitors ahead, but the hosts responded with three goals in a row. Ermedin Demirovic, Maximilian Mittelstedt and Denise Undave scored three points for the team.
