Stuttgart vs PSG prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – January 29, 2025
One of the matches of the 8th round of the Champions League group stage will be played on Wednesday at the MHP Arena, where Stuttgart will host PSG. I suggest betting on goals in this match with good chances of winning.
Match preview
In the last round, Stuttgart's Sebastian Henness' men secured a confident 3:1 win over Slovan Bratislava, extending their unbeaten streak in the Champions League to 5 matches (3 wins and 2 losses). At the start of the 8th round, Stuttgart occupies 24th place in the standings with 10 points in hand.
It's important to note that the club has not yet guaranteed qualification to the knockout stages, and a defeat in the next match would end their chances of progressing in the tournament. Ahead of their match against the French champions, Stuttgart comes after an away loss to Mainz in the Bundesliga (0:2).
In the 7th round, PSG, under the guidance of Luis Enrique, showcased an excellent performance, securing a 4:2 comeback victory over Manchester City. This was their third win in the group stage of the Champions League, but in other matches, they suffered three defeats and one draw.
Currently, PSG sits in 22nd place in the standings and has not yet secured a place in the knockout stage. The important point: to guarantee qualification to the Round of 16, they only need a draw in the upcoming match. Over the weekend, PSG drew 1:1 with Reims in Ligue 1, but still increased their lead over Marseille to 10 points.

- Stuttgart: Alexander Nübel – Maximilian Mittelstädt, Leonidas Stergiou, Josha Vagnoman, Amin Al-Dakhil – Angelo Stiller, Atakan Karazor – Chris Führich, Deniz Undav, Jakob Brunn Larsen – Nik Woltman.
