VfB Stuttgart vs FC Heidenheim Prediction

VfB Stuttgart Form

VfB Stuttgart hope to get back to winning ways after first beating Celta Vigo by 2-1, before winning 1-2 against FC Koln. The streak ended in a recent 2-0 defeat against FC Basel 1893. VfB Stuttgart claimed a middle-of-the-road three wins in their previous six matches on home soil in the Bundesliga. They also drew zero and lost three, as they scored 11 and conceded seven goals.

They are one of only a few teams capable of taking the title in the Bundesliga, and VfB Stuttgart currently remain on course.

FC Heidenheim Form

In their last three matches, FC Heidenheim lost against Borussia Dortmund and Hamburger SV by 0-2 and 2-1, respectively, and beat Augsburg by 2-1. FC Heidenheim managed a decent return of three wins in their last six Bundesliga away matches, in which they scored six while also conceding seven times. They also experienced zero draws and three defeats.

A mid-table finish seemed likely for FC Heidenheim but in current form they could be dragged into a relegation battle.

A home win for VfB Stuttgart is the obvious choice at MHPArena. With the attacking qualities on display here, it has the makings of a high scoring affair when FC Heidenheim come visiting.

VfB Stuttgart are yet to play a draw this season, in stead recording three wins and two defeats in the Bundesliga. FC Heidenheim are looking at one win, zero draws and four defeats in the Bundesliga.
