Stuttgart beat Leverkusen 3-1 at home in a Bundesliga encounter that confirmed our model's pre-match pick of a Stuttgart win at 40% probability. The hosts dominated despite Leverkusen's recent form; both sides found the net, continuing Stuttgart's perfect streak of both teams scoring across their last five matches. Our model's call landed on the day. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
The result reshuffled the upper table standings. Stuttgart's 3 points lifted them to 5th place, narrowing the gap to the Champions League spots. Leverkusen remained 4th but saw their 3-game winning streak halted, potentially signaling vulnerability in their title challenge. Our model suggested Stuttgart's inconsistency made this upset plausible given Leverkusen's recent fixture congestion. The defeat marked Leverkusen's second loss of the season.
