With six games so far played, Bayern Munich lead the table with 14 points, while Stuttgart are eight in the table. Bayern Munich haven’t had a convincing start to the season as despite being first in the table they are tied on points with RB Leipzig who are second in the standings.
While Stuttgart have been struggling to win matches this season, having secured only two wins and drew three. However, Stuttgart know how to scrape to a win against a top side like Bayern, having done it previously and looking to inflict a defeat on them again.

Prediction
Bayern Munich are winless in their last three games and now this chance to end their winless streak has come against a side who are eight in the table. This will be a great chance for Vincent Kompany’s side to finally secure a win and avenge their previous defeat against Stuttgart. Although the visitors will also pose a threat, we feel Bayern will get enough home support and should prevail in this match.
Prediction: Bayern Munich 3-1 VfB Stuttgart
