Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Stuttgart and Hoffenheim square off against each other at MHPArena in the closing match of Sunday’s program. Die Schwaben shared the spoils with Sparta Prague in the Champions League round 2, but it has to be noted that they failed to turn their dominance into victory. Despite failing to find the net in the midweek clash, summer signing Ermedin Demirovic will continue leading the line for the hosts, while the likes of Dan-Axel Zagadou, Justin Diehl, Leonidas Stergiou, and Nikolas Nartey remain in the recovery room.
Defender Josh Vagnoman is a major doubt. Hoffenheim, on the other hand, struggled defensively in a 4-3 loss to Werder Bremen and seeing that Stuttgart’ recent displays have been much better than the results, home win should be considered. Adding to Hoffenheim woes, defender Stanley Nsoki misses the game through suspension, while key attacker Andrej Kramaric remains in the recovery room.
Highlighted Player (Pavel Kaderabek):
Pavel Kaderabek is a Czech Republic defender born on 25 April 1992, who has enjoyed a bright start to his professional career. Coming through the youth ranks at Sparta Prague and gaining some first team experience during a loan spell with Viktoria Zizkov, the right-sided defender was finally able to show what he is capable of during the 2012/2013 season and he didn’t need a lot of time to make the next step in his career.
After scoring impressive 10 goals in 76 league appearances for Sparta Prague, Kaderabek joined Bundesliga side Hoffenheim in the summer of 2015, shortly after he had established himself as a starting right-back in the Czech Republic national team.
The talented footballer helped Repre make it to the Euro 2016 finals by starting 9 qualifying matches, once again proving his killer instinct by scoring two goals. Pavel Kaderabek looks set to become one of leading players of the new generation and a big club move may not be far away either.
