Bayern Munich Vs Stuttgart: Watch Out, Die Schwaben Has The Potential To Helve

Bayern Munich will find it difficult to win against VfB Stuttgart (Instagram/@fcbayern).

Bayern Munich will host VfB Stuttgart in the eighth week of the 2024/2025 Bundesliga at the Allianz Arena, Saturday, October 19, 2024, WIB night.

Vincent Kompany will face serious challenges to stay at the top of the Bundesliga standings.

Stuttgart has shown positive results in six league games this season. Die Schwaben only lost once, the remaining two won and three draws.

Speaking of meeting records with Munich, Stuttgart won 3-1 in their last meeting on May 4, 2024.

In addition, Die Schwaben managed to get a draw in two of their last three meetings at the Allianz Arena. The remaining match ended in defeat.

Their meeting record in the last five matches is not much different. Munich packed two wins, Stuttgart one win, and the rest drew.

In other words, Stuttgart has the potential to tackle Munich's ambitions to maintain their top spot.

Moreover, Kompany faced with the problem of fitness of several key players. The manager still has difficulty ensuring his troops are at the highest level.

Prior to the international break, Munich had never won three games in all competitions, drew twice and lost once.

Apart from the matter of fitness, some new players still need adjustments. Only Michael Olise has clicked.

The 22-year-old has made a smooth transition by scoring six goals and three assists in just nine games in all competitions.

Olise ended the match before the international break by scoring a goal in a draw against Eintracht Frankfurt. He has formed a strong partnership with Harry Kane.

Given Stuttgart's average 1.83 goals per league game this season, Olise's ability to take advantage of his chances or create his own chances makes him the lead candidate to score.

However, Stuttgart is predicted not to be Olise or Harry Kane's goal barn. They deserve to be wary of because they have proven themselves to be able to overcome the giant labeled team. Borussia Dortmund has only been beaten by a landslide score of 5-1 this season.

Sebastian Hoeneb, Stuttgart's manager, sees the match against Munhen as a good opportunity to win again after the last three games only ended in a draw.
