VfB Stuttgart vs Young Boys Prediction, Preview, Lineups and Team News | UEFA Champions League, December 11, 2024

VfB Stuttgart vs Young Boys Preview

  • Tournament: UEFA Champions League
  • Date: Wednesday, December 11
  • Kick-off Time: 08:00 PM GMT
  • Venue: MHPArena (Neckarstadion), Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. 

Hosts VfB Stuttgart might be in a better position in this game against BSC Young Boys, but everyone can agree to the fact that both sides are struggling badly in the UEFA Champions League group phase, with next-round hopes minimal for both. The hosts might have a bleak chance, but for the visitors, it can be assumed to be game over.

VfB Stuttgart have four points from five games, standing 27th, but with the last two defeats, the morale is expected to be down, and if surprise wins don’t appear, the condition would be beyond repair. A win might see them in the top 24, and the game is ideal to do that, but their inconsistency can minimize that chance too.

BSC Young Boys have been the worst performers in the UCL 2024-25, they are one of the only three teams to not even have a single point yet. Their goal difference is -15, which is again the worst. So, automatically they are last. Mathematically they still ponder a chance, but practically they bear none.

VfB Stuttgart have a long list of injured players: Diehl, Hendricks, Raimund, Touré, Undav, Woltemade, Zagadou, Al-Dakhil, and Leweling are all injured and out. With so long a list, Sebastian Hoeneb is surely tensed.

BSC Young Boys have a few injuries to worry about too, Chaiwa, Colley, B. Conte, A. Conté, Crnovrsanin, Janko, and Zoukrou. These injuries will be a bit concerning for Joël Magnin.

Key Players to Watch in VfB Stuttgart vs Young Boys

The centre-forward arrived this summer from FC Augsburg but has already been an integral part already in this short notice. He has been spectacular in the Bundesliga, scoring seven and assisting one for the team. In the Champions League group phase too, he hails a bright spot, with a goal in the last match, though the result was 5-1.

He hails the chance to score again, especially against such a weak attack, the weakest in the entire league. Some goals tomorrow will do good for both his team and his own morale. He has been a bright star in Germany, and this game will be played in Germany, so it’s his chance.

The on-loan 21-year-old winger from LOSC Lille has been a substitute in four of the five games he played. He is expected to get a start in this game, and if he does we can expect his first ever goal in the competition.

His pace can be instrumental against VfB Stuttgart, who have a terrible defense just like his own club has. This might be a chance for him to shine at the Swiss base, and in the long run, earn a spot. His shining in the game might also catch the eye of LOSC Lille.

VfB Stuttgart vs Young Boys Prediction

Stuttgart are expected to win this game, without much hassle. They are playing at home, with a better squad, so BSC Young Boys have a slight chance of a fight-back, which if treated with attention won’t sound like a problem for the hosts.
