A long and frustrating night for Die Fohlen
Stuttgart have won 3 games in a row across all competitions coming into Friday's game and they are clearly the team in the better form and in a better position to secure the win, making this VfB Stuttgart vs Borussia Monchengladbach preview a straightforward one.
Stuttgart followed up their 5-0 win over Greuther Fürth with a 2-0 victory at Paderborn before they easily dealt with Slovan Bratislava 3-0 in the Champions League away last time out, so Die Schwaben are clearly in a good place.
Sebastian Hoeneß's side play on the front foot, with high-tempo, aggressive pressing and quick vertical combination play.
Josha Vagnoman has led the line for Die Schwaben in Bundesliga 2026/2027 so far with two goals in four games, but Deniz Undav has three in their last five and he gives them the cutting edge they need.
Stuttgart have the edge in every aspect
The odds reflect that Stuttgart are a heavy favorite to win here at 1.34 and they're right to be with Gladbach available at 8.0 and the draw at 5.0, so our VfB Stuttgart vs Borussia Monchengladbach betting tips point toward the home side.
The hosts sit in 12th in the Bundesliga 2026/2027 with six points from five games, but Gladbach are bottom with no points after a nightmare opening salvo.
The head-to-head also favours the home side, who have won two of the last three meetings between the two in Stuttgart and four of the last five overall.
Gladbach's away record is perhaps the worst in the Bundesliga 2026/2027 with zero points from three games and they've scored just 0.33 goals per game while conceding 3.33.
Alexander Blessin has brought a more intense, wing-focused pressing idea to Gladbach, but the overhaul is still bedding in.
Going for goals
Hugo Bolin is Gladbach's top scorer in Bundesliga 2026/2027 with two in four but he is fighting an uphill battle with a blunt attack.
Angelo Stiller has three assists in Stuttgart's last five games and he is the tempo-setter in the final third, so we're going for Over 2.5 goals & BTTS Yes at 1.3 and 1.45 respectively, as the home team should do the damage, according to this VfB Stuttgart vs Borussia Monchengladbach prediction.
Gladbach have gone five matches with no wins, a draw and four defeats, so the form book is screaming crisis here and there's only one winner on the pitch.
