Stuttgart vs Dortmund Prediction: 22/9/2024

Stuttgart, aiming for promotion, have been in outstanding form at home this season, securing 19 points from a possible 21 in the Bundesliga. Meanwhile, Dortmund have struggled to adjust to the demands of competing at a higher level, suffering four defeats in seven away matches, which hasn’t helped their chances of survival in a tough second-tier competition.

Dortmund find themselves in a must-win situation to avoid further difficulties. Interestingly, 15 of their last 17 games in the league have featured two or more goals. Stuttgart share the same statistic, with 15 of their previous 17 league games also producing over 2.5 goals. A loss in this crucial match could see Stuttgart’s promotion hopes suffer a significant blow.

In their last 14 home games, Stuttgart have both scored and conceded in 13 of them, while Dortmund have found the net in eight of their last ten away matches, despite only managing to keep two clean sheets during that period.

 

Prediction

While Dortmund would love to disrupt Stuttgart’s promotion push, their dismal away record—15 games without a win, including five straight losses—makes such an outcome seem unlikely. Stuttgart, on the other hand, have won eight of their last nine home matches, putting them in a strong position to claim victory.

Prediction: Stuttgart 4 : 1 Dortmund
