SC Paderborn 07 vs VfB Stuttgart Prediction Bundesliga · Oct 10, 2026

Analysis

Paderborn sit 12th with four points from four games and an extreme goal profile: just three scored and five conceded, with all three goals arriving in one afternoon, the 3-1 home win over Hoffenheim on 20 September. Stuttgart are down in 15th on three points after losing three of their four league games (1-5 at Bayern, 1-2 at Hoffenheim, 0-1 at home to Dortmund), but they have found the net in every one of them and hit four past Köln. Nine goals conceded in four matches is the story of Stuttgart's season so far, which is exactly the kind of flaw a direct, physical promoted side can punish at home. Still, Paderborn have scored in only one of four league rounds and were beaten 0-1 at home by Freiburg, so expecting them to control the game is a stretch. Stuttgart's 3-1 European win over Viking suggests the attack is working even while the back line is not, and that tilts a close call towards the visitors.
