VfB Stuttgart host Mainz 05 at MHPArena, Stuttgart on Saturday, Jan 16 at 3:30 PM in the Bundesliga.
VfB Stuttgart come into this fixture struggling badly (1W 3L in last 4). Mainz 05, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. VfB Stuttgart head into this on the back of a defeat, while Mainz 05 arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
History strongly favours VfB Stuttgart here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Mainz 05, with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 2–2 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.4 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: Mainz 05's quality should tell even on the road. VfB Stuttgart will push, but the visitors have too much class. Mainz 05 to win.
