VfB Stuttgart vs Borussia Mönchengladbach Prediction

VfB Stuttgart hosts Borussia Mönchengladbach on 23 October 2026 at 21:30 in Matchday 7 of the Bundesliga. Stuttgart are heavy favorites, priced at 1.43 on 1xBet and 1.38 on 1Win for the home win. Mönchengladbach sit bottom of the table without a point after six matches and have lost or drawn all ten of their last away games in the league. Stuttgart's attack has managed only eight goals across six games, averaging 1.33 per match, and they lost 0-1 to Hamburg last time out. The pick is Stuttgart under 3 goals.

Form and Head to Head

Stuttgart have been solid at home defensively. In their last ten Bundesliga matches at the Mercedes-Benz Arena, opponents have never landed more than 5.5 shots on target. Stuttgart themselves have attempted over 12.5 shots in nine of their last ten home league games and have not lost the shots-on-target count in any of those ten fixtures. They have also won the corner count in nine of ten recent home matches.

Mönchengladbach's away form is dire. In ten consecutive away league games, they have not won the shots-on-target battle once. They have scored no more than one goal in nine of their last ten away matches. Under new manager Alexander Blessin, the club has yet to earn a point in the league. Historically, under 4.5 goals has landed in 18 of 19 recent head-to-head meetings between these sides. Stuttgart won 3-0 in January, a scoreline that would trigger a push on the under 3 bet.

Best Bet

Stuttgart under 3 goals. The home side's attacking output has been modest this season, and they struggle to break down compact defenses. While Mönchengladbach's leaky backline (conceding 3.33 goals per game, worst in the Bundesliga) could invite pressure, Stuttgart's positional play issues should keep them to three goals or fewer. Even a 3-0 win returns the stake. On 1xBet, Stuttgart win is 1.43; on 1Win, 1.38.

Odds to Watch

The draw sits at 5.8 on 1xBet and 5.4 on 1Win, reflecting Stuttgart's dominance. Mönchengladbach's away curse makes their win price 6.98 on 1xBet and 7.1 on 1Win. Stuttgart under 3 goals offers value given their scoring drought and the historical pattern of low-scoring meetings between these clubs.
