Stuttgart Preview: Volume Of Victories Needs To Increase

Although Stuttgart have plenty of reason to be optimistic moving forward, with them currently in eighth-place and capable of kicking on, their lack of wins in recent wins has been starting to cost them. Having said that, they deserve huge credit for holding reigning champions Bayer Leverkusen to a goalless draw last weekend, especially when considering that Stuttgart are not normally known for their defensive stability.

Stuttgart have won just one of last five Bundesliga fixtures since that thumping 5-1 triumph over Borussia Dortmund in late September and they most recently were victims of a 0-2 defeat at the hands of Atalanta in the Champions League.

Eintracht Frankfurt Preview: Hunting For Fourth Straight Win

On the back of three consecutive wins in all competitions, Eintracht Frankfurt are aiming to maintain their place in the Bundesliga’s top three by getting the better of last season’s runners-up. They were victorious in the Europa League this past Thursday and also got the better of Bochum in the Bundesliga last weekend in memorable fashion.

Dino Toppmoller’s side tore apart of the teams languishing at the wrong end of the table, thrashing them by seven goals to two. Such a result proved a big boost to Eintracht’s goal difference and took them above Bayer Leverkusen.

Stuttgart Team News: Hosts Sweating Over Undav Hamstring Injury

Eintracht Frankfurt Team News: Hojlund & Kristensen Unavailable

It would be no surprise to see Eintracht Frankfurt match up to Stuttgart with a 4-4-2 formation of their own. Omar Marmouth and Hugo Ekitike are a strong strike pairing, whilst Dahoud and Skhiri in the middle are capable of countering Stuttgart’s high-intensity football.

Predicted XI (4-4-2): Trapp; Collins, Tuta, Koch, Theate; Dina Ebembe, Dahoud, Skhiri, Nkounkou; Marmoush, Ekitike

Unavailable: Hojlund (Injured), Kristensen (Injured)

Stuttgart Vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction

Two high-performing sides packed with quality players, particularly in attack may lead to an entertaining encounter. After being shut out by Atalanta, Stuttgart will be desperate to improve their level of cutting edge going forward and that should be reflected in a typically offensive style of play. But Eintracht Frankfurt boasts one of the top-performing strikers in the Bundesliga this season, not to mention a team full of confidence and momentum who are likely to create opportunities themselves. With that in mind, it’s well worth backing both teams to find the net.
