Dortmund vs Stuttgart Predictions and Betting Tips

Dortmund vs Stuttgart Key Stats:

• Dortmund have kept a clean sheet in just one out of six at home in the Bundesliga this season.
• The hosts concede an average of 1.33 goals at Signal Iduna Park in the league.
• Stuttgart have scored in three of their last four road matches in the Bundesliga.

Happy home life for BVB

The boys in yellow may not currently be the top team in the Bundesliga, but as far as home form is concerned, they’re very much the best in the business. Marco Rose’s men have picked up maximum points on home soil, winning six out of six, scoring an impressive 19 goals in the process.

Defensively, even on their own patch, Saturday’s hosts haven’t exactly been in imperious form and they can certainly be got at, as an average of 1.33 goals against (plus just one clean sheet) suggests. Fortunately, with an untold amount of firepower, their attacking power is enough to render their defensive frailties obsolete. Only two Bundesliga teams have scored more home goals than BVB.

Struggling Stuttgart

Unlike the hosts, who are flying high, the visitors are in something of a dismal position. Not only are they only one point above danger, but they’re without a win in four Bundesliga games, the last two of which they’ve lost.

Playing away from home is certainly not something that Pellegrino Matarazzo’s men have specialised in this term, winning none of their five travelling matches, collecting a poor total of just three points away from the comforts of Mercedes-Benz Arena. As they’ve conceded ten goals, Saturday’s visitors have struggled defensively, though it is their lack of offensive power that has been the real driving force behind their lack of away-day points. Only fellow strugglers Augsburg have scored fewer road goals than Die Roten, who’ve notched just three in five.

Dortmund vs Stuttgart Predictions

With neither Dortmund nor Stuttgart looking secure at the back, this is a game that is likely to be settled on attacking quality, and if that is to be the case, then there’s only one winner. The hosts have no shortage of offensive riches and it shows.

From a betting angle, ‘Dortmund to Win & Both Teams to Score’ catches the eye. Yes, the hosts are stronger and yes, they have the necessary tools to come out on top, but they also have numerous chinks in their defensive armour, which is why five of the six teams that have lost at Signal Iduna Park this season have found the net.
