Match analysis
At 1.98, a price that only needs about 51 percent to break even, Under 3.5 goals is Superior's number in Stuttgart vs Koln on 4 September, and the model itself is more confident still at 61 percent. Neither side's recent scoring points at a high-event afternoon.
Stuttgart's attack rating is the highest number in this match
Stuttgart's attack rates a healthy 6.9 out of 10, with their own defence close behind at 6.5, numbers that suggest control rather than an end-to-end game even at home. Koln have scored in every one of their last three matches (3-2, 2-1, 2-1), but never more than three goals in a single game across that run, which fits a total nearer three than four or five.
Stuttgart have already leaked five goals once this run
The one blot on Stuttgart's own last five is a 1-5 defeat, and if their defense has another night like that while Koln's scoring streak continues, four or more total goals is well within reach. A repeat 3-2 for Koln alone, added to two Stuttgart goals, is the kind of split that beats this line; anything from a 2-2 to a 4-1 does the same.
