Prediction: 2-0
Fortuna Dusseldorf
After playing out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Freiburg at the weekend, Stuttgart will be aiming to record their first win of the season when they host Fortuna Dusseldorf at their Mercedes-Benz-Arena on Friday evening. Die Roten obviously struggle at the back, but the match against Fortuna could be the turning point for the hosts, whose main goal is to secure yet another Bundesliga survival. Mario Gomez, who scored a brace in the draw with Freiburg, will be the man to watch in the home side. Fortuna Dusseldorf have been playing above expectations in the 2018/2019 season. After holding Leipzig to a 1-1 draw at Red Bull Arena, the newcomers defeated Hoffenheim at home in their last league match, meaning that they are brimming with confidence ahead of the trip to Stuttgart. However, the hosts want this win more than the visitors, therefore, we are tempted to put our money on Mario Gomez and Co.
