Latest Deniz Undav Player Prop Odds

Tiago Tomás To Score +160 BetMGM logo

Tiago Tomás (Stuttgart) can be backed to find the net at +160. We believe that there is merit in backing him for an Anytime Goalscorer prop wager which means we need him to be on the scoresheet.

Corners Prediction

Koln Over 3.5 Corners -132 BetMGM logo

In their past four matches, Koln have covered the 3.5 corners line, while the last four Stuttgart games have involved them conceding over 3.5 corners. The amount of Koln corners could be bigger than the Team Corners line suggests and that leads us to a bet at odds of -132.

The odds and lines below are updated regularly and may differ from the prices shown in our picks, which are captured at the time of publication.

Stuttgart Big Favourites to Win

For this Bundesliga encounter, the bookmakers have Stuttgart as the -208 favourites to win. This therefore implies that they have a 68% chance of triumphing. The market implies that FC Koln are the most unlikely to win at +460.

As the name suggests, the Half-Time Result market is settled at the break. Should you take this option, then you can choose between Stuttgart at -110, Koln at +400 or the draw at +175.

You can find the shortest odds for Over 2.5 Goals, which means three goals or more being scored. The Yes pick in the Both Teams to Score market is considered to be the most likely result and it’s trading at -208.

There are hundreds of markets from which to select your preferred wager when it comes to Bundesliga games. The best football betting sites push the boat out to provide lots of choice.
