Stuttgart vs PSG Prediction

In what could be a dramatic final round of fixtures in the UEFA Champions League, these two sides are in the thick of things as they battle for a top 24 spot. A Stuttgart win would make the possibility of PSG’s elimination very likely as Manchester City host Club Brugge, whilst a PSG win does the same for Stuttgart’s prospects and a draw leaves both in a reasonable position. The hosts most recently suffered a 2-0 loss at Mainz the other day, ending a four-match unbeaten start to 2025, whilst PSG were held to a 1-1 draw by Reims in Ligue 1. This is expected to be a tense and nervy affair with the likelihood being that the game is decided late on when the permutations become clearer so a lower scoring encounter seems a good bet.

Stuttgart vs PSG Tip: Under 3.5 goals
