Stuttgart (home)
- The Hamburger SV vs VfB Stuttgart prediction suggests that Stuttgart should have enough class, confidence and creativity to overcome an improving but inconsistent Hamburger SV side in the Bundesliga 2025-2026 season on Sunday.
- A draw would be an acceptable result for Sebastian Hoeneß’ side, who are unbeaten in four of their last five matches, including a 3-3 thriller against Dortmund and a 2-0 Europa League win over Feyenoord.
- Hoeneß has installed an aggressive, pressing style that overpowers many of the teams they face in the Bundesliga and his players have the quality and technique to be successful in possession.
- Stuttgart are well ensconced in the top six with 21-22 points from 10-11 games, while HSV are languishing in the bottom third with around nine points from the same number of fixtures.

- Hamburg’s goals are being shared around, but Rayan Philippe is their leading marksman with three league goals.
