Bundesliga action on Halloween sees Bayer Leverkusen host an in-form VfB Stuttgart in a fascinating encounter. Leverkusen, with 17 wins, 7 draws, and 8 losses this season, have enjoyed a solid campaign, particularly evidenced by winning four of their last five outings, scoring 66 goals while conceding 43 overall. However, they face a Stuttgart side currently operating at an entirely different level. VfB arrive with an impeccable record of five wins from their last five matches, netting 14 times and conceding only 5 during that incredible run, boasting a perfect 100% win rate in their recent form.
The historical head-to-head also leans heavily in Stuttgart's favour, with two recent resounding victories (3-1, 4-1) against Leverkusen, although a thrilling 4-3 win for VfB and two draws also feature. This suggests a potential high-scoring affair. Despite Leverkusen’s home advantage contributing to a 45% win probability, the draw also stands at 45%, highlighting the tight nature of this contest. Stuttgart's incredible momentum and historical dominance over Leverkusen make them a dangerous prospect, with their 10% win probability perhaps understating their current threat. Expect a tactical battle where Stuttgart's attacking prowess will test Leverkusen's defensive resolve.
