Coles Group Ltd (ASX: COL)

Analysts at Morgans think that Coles could be an ASX 200 dividend stock to buy. It is of course one of the big two supermarket operators with over 800 stores across the country. Coles also has a large liquor network comprising almost 1,000 stores across brands such as First Choice and Liquorland.

Morgans currently has an add rating and $18.95 price target on its shares.

As for dividends, its analysts are forecasting Coles to pay fully franked dividends of 66 cents per share in FY 2024 and 69 cents per share in FY 2025. Based on the current Coles share price of $17.11, this will mean dividend yields of 3.85% and 4%, respectively.

Super Retail Group Ltd (ASX: SUL)

Goldman Sachs thinks that Super Retail could be an ASX 200 dividend stock to buy right now. It is the retail group behind popular store brands BCF, Macpac, Rebel, and Super Cheap Auto.

The broker currently has a buy rating and $17.80 price target on its shares.

Goldman is expecting the retailer to offer good dividend yields in the near term. It is forecasting fully franked dividends per share of 67 cents in FY 2024 and then 73 cents in FY 2025. Based on the latest Super Retail share price of $13.89, this will mean good yields of 4.8% and 5.25%, respectively.

Woodside Energy Group Ltd (ASX: WDS)

Over at Morgans, its analysts are also positive on Woodside Energy and see it as an ASX 200 dividend stock to buy this week. It is one of the world's largest energy producers with high-quality operations across the globe.

Morgans' analysts recently stated that they see "now as a good time to add to positions" following the recent underperformance of its shares. The broker has an add rating and $36.00 price target on them.

In respect to income, its analysts are forecasting Woodside to pay fully franked dividends of $1.25 per share in FY 2024 and then $1.57 per share in FY 2025. Based on its current share price of $27.52, this represents attractive dividend yields of 4.5% and 5.7%, respectively.
