Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Following a massive 4-0 loss to Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga derby, Borussia Dortmund will look to get back on course when they take on Stuttgart on Matchday 11. The Yellow-Blacks are eager to stay in the Bundesliga race and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach against die Schwaben. The likes of Thomas Meunier, Emre Can, and Mateu Morey remain on the sidelines with injuries, while Ramy Bensebaini is a major doubt.
Stuttgart, on the other hand, are still without top scorer Serhou Guirassy, who has been struggling with a hamstring injury of late. Anyhow, given their attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Defender Pascal Stenzel is yet another absentee in the home team. In their last meeting in the German top flight the two teams played out a thrilling 3-3 draw.
