Slovan Bratislava vs Stuttgart Prediction: Die Roten can claim the spoils

Champions League action returns for the first time in 2025 on Tuesday night (20:00, TNT Sports 7), with Slovan Bratislava and Stuttgart going head-to-head at Stadion Tehelne pole.

Bratislava are one of just three teams yet to pick up a single point in the Champions League this season and they are unable to qualify for the next round of the competition, while Stuttgart are a point outside of the play-off spots.

Read on for my Slovan Bratislava vs Stuttgart prediction, aided by the latest match odds and team news.

Team News

Starting with the hosts, Juraj Kucka is sidelined for at least the next two months after his recent knee surgery.

In more positive news for Bratislava, Matus Vojtko has overcome his recent shin injury and is in contention to feature.

As for Stuttgart, Luca Raimund has a thigh injury, Justin Diehl has a hamstring problem and El Bilal Toure is sidelined due to a broken metatarsal.

Maximilian Mittelstadt is a doubt due to a muscular issue, while Dan-Axel Zagadou remains a long-term absentee for the Bundesliga outfit due to a knee injury.

Slovan Bratislava vs Stuttgart Odds

Slovan Bratislava are the major underdogs at 11/1 to claim the victory, while Stuttgart are the firm 2/9 favourites and the draw is priced at 11/2.

Stuttgart to win and both teams to score @ 6/4

With Slovan Bratislava having nothing to play for in this game, it’s hard to look past Stuttgart picking up a much-needed three points in their hopes of progressing in this competition to the knockout stages.

While Bratislava have struggled with the step up in quality in the Champions League this season, they have managed to score in their last three games in the competition against Dinamo Zagreb, AC Milan and Atletico Madrid.

While they are likely to succumb to another defeat on Tuesday against a Stuttgart side with plenty to play for, backing the hosts to get on the scoresheet appeals here.

Ermedin Demirovic to score two or more goals @ 9/2

Conceding three or more goals in their last three Champions League games, Slovan Bratislava’s defensive woes have been there for all to see.

That should give Stuttgart’s attacking stars plenty of opportunities at Stadion Tehelne pole and one man in particular could benefit.

Ermedin Demirovic is Stuttgart’s top goalscorer in the Bundesliga this season with eight goals, while he has also netted against Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League this term.

With Stuttgart likely to create plenty of chances, Demirovic to score two or more goals at 9/2 catches the eye.
