Our prediction for the match Real Madrid vs Stuttgart
"Los Blancos" managed to reclaim the top spot last season after a rather lackluster 2022/2023 campaign, where they only secured the Copa del Rey. This time, however, the only trophy that eluded them was the Copa, as they went on to win the Spanish Super Cup, La Liga, and the Champions League. Meanwhile, the "Swabians," who had narrowly retained their place in the Bundesliga by winning their playoff matches, turned into one of the league’s surprises alongside Bayer Leverkusen. In fact, they only lost out to Leverkusen, finishing second—leaving even Bayern Munich behind.
Florentino Pérez stayed true to his reputation, signing not only Mbappé but also Endrick this summer, while largely overlooking the departures of Nacho and Kroos. Stuttgart, on the other hand, lost their top scorer, Guirassy-Serhou, who netted 28 goals and now plays for Borussia Dortmund. He is expected to be replaced either by the on-loan Touré or by Demirović, signed from Augsburg. The club also completed the permanent transfer of Undav, who recorded 18 goals and 9 assists last season.
"Los Galacticos" have had a shaky start to the season. After defeating Atalanta in the UEFA Super Cup, they dropped points in their very first away fixture in La Liga, drawing 1-1 with modest Mallorca. They also failed to win against Las Palmas, and could only scrape past Real Sociedad thanks to penalties in the second half. Hennessey’s men suffered a bitter defeat in the German Super Cup—leading Bayer Leverkusen until the 88th minute, they conceded a late equalizer and lost in a penalty shootout. This was followed by a 1-3 loss to Freiburg in the opening round and a 3-3 draw with Mainz in the second. Only in the cup did they manage to dominate, crushing Preußen 5-0. On Saturday, they also secured a convincing 3-1 victory over Borussia Mönchengladbach.
