VfB Stuttgart have won both of the recent meetings with Hamburger SV in our records, and the Bundesliga one was a rout: 4-0 in Stuttgart on 12 April 2026, 188 days before this match. The women's sides met on 29 August 2026 and produced the same winner, VfB Stuttgart taking that 2-1 at home in the Frauen-Bundesliga. So both of the last two went Stuttgart's way, and both were played in Stuttgart. Saturday flips the venue to the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, and the Hamburger SV vs VfB Stuttgart prediction is a trickier one than that April scoreline suggests.
Hamburger SV v VfB Stuttgart kicks off at 14:30 BST on Saturday, 17 October 2026 at the Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, in the Bundesliga. You can make your call on the scoreline on the Hamburger SV vs VfB Stuttgart match page.
The only Bundesliga meeting in our records is the 4-0, and Hamburger SV did not land a glove on Stuttgart in it. Add the women's fixture in August and the pattern is two wins from two for VfB Stuttgart, with Hamburg managing one goal across the pair. Everything in that record happened in Stuttgart, though, which is the one thing Saturday changes.
Merlin Polzin's side have won three and lost three of their last six, 9 points, scored 7 and conceded 15. The bad half is grim reading: 0-5 at home to 1. FSV Mainz 05, 0-5 away to RB Leipzig, 0-2 away to Borussia Dortmund. The good half is genuinely good. They beat 1. FC Köln 2-1 at home 28 days before this match, won a club friendly 2-0 against FC København, then went to TSG Hoffenheim 7 days before this match and won 3-2.
