What could change the pick?

Stuttgart may respond with a compact away setup, while Leverkusen's latest 0-3 defeat shows their attack can stall.

A few things to know

Before kick-off

Are predictions guaranteed?

No. Every football prediction can lose. Read the match context and counterargument, and only risk money you can afford to lose.

Are the free picks really free?

Yes. Our public predictions and match briefings are free to read. Paid membership and messaging subscriptions are not open.

How are results recorded?

The original selection and publication time stay on record. Confirmed scores and settlements are appended after the match. Pending fixtures are never counted as wins.

Do cup picks include extra time?

Our published match selections apply to normal time plus stoppage time. Extra time and penalties are excluded unless a selection explicitly states otherwise. Check your operator’s exact rules.
