Best Tip: Stuttgart to win

A Europa League win on home turf for Sebastian Hoeneß's Stuttgart team win in the win / draw / win market is what we're predicting. Statistics suggest that their form is good coming into the match, and they should be too strong for the opposition. The odds from the bookmakers suggest the same, and when that happens you've got reason to feel confident. A Stuttgart win is the way to go, but it could be a close one.
