Stuttgart - Borussia Dortmund Football prediction

Stuttgart and Borussia Dortmund play in the Mercedes-Benz-Arena in a Bundesliga round of the 8th round. At this stage, the history of direct confrontations is favorable to the visiting team, which has 4 wins and 1 loss in the last 5 games. However, the last time they faced in this stadium was in 17-11-2017, in a game by the Bundesliga that ended the victory of Stuttgart by (2-1). The goals of the match were scored by C. Akolo (5 ') and J. Brekalo (51') for Stuttgart and M. Philipp (45 ') for Borussia Dortmund. In this match the home factor could play an important role, since Stuttgart presents significant differences in the results achieved at home and as a visitor.

Analysis of Stuttgart
The home team is currently in 18th place with 5 points earned after 1 win, 2 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, won at home to Werder Bremen by (2-1). In the last match, lost out to Hannover by (3-1). This is a team affected by the home factor, stronger when you play in front of your fans, since in the last 30 matches you have 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses as a visitor, with 29 goals scored and 28 conceded, against 9 wins, 5 draws and 1 home defeat, with 20 goals scored and 10 conceded. Stuttgart won 7, drew 2 and lost 1 of their last 10 home games for all competitions. Defensive solidity has not been his strong point, having conceded goals in 6 of the last 7 games in this competition.

Stuttgart are a club that has five Bundesliga titles, the most recent title being won in the 2006/07 season, as well as a UEFA Europa League and three DFB Pokal titles. Last season, the team finished the national championship in seventh position, but this season has been making a poor start to the season, having won only five of the twenty-one points played so far, thus being in the lantern of the competition. In the last five games that Stuttgart played as principal, counting only the national competition, in four of them were scored more than 1.5 goals by the teams. I believe that in this match, Stuttgart will play another busy game, mainly because it is facing a strong opponent.

In the last game he played for the Friendly, he beat Alemannia Aachen out (0-4). In the last 10 games as a visitor Borussia Dortmund won 8 and drew 2. Defensive solidity has not been his strong point, having conceded goals in 5 of the last 7 games, but his attack has regularly scored, as he has scored goals in 6 of the last 7 matches for this competition. In 15 games, he suffered the first goal 6 times but managed to turn the score in 4. There are 1 periods in the last 20 matches played as a visitor for all competitions: he scored 13 of his 32 goals between minutes (76'-90 ' ).

Last season, the team finished the national championship in fourth place and this season has been making a great start and came the lead recently, being today three points ahead of runner-up. In the last five games that Borussia Dortmund played as the only Bundesliga player, four of them scored more than 1.5 goals for the teams. I believe that in this match Borussia Dortmund will play another busy game, mainly for the quality of their attack, and will be able to score several goals.
