Stuttgart and Eintracht Frankfurt clash at the MHP Arena on Saturday evening in the Bundesliga.
Stuttgart extended their unbeaten run against Dortmund
Die Roten extended their undefeated run in the Bundesliga to ten games with a 1-0 victory at Borussia Dortmund, a game that saw Sebastian Hoeness’ team keep their third clean sheet in their last four Bundesliga games.
At the other end of the pitch, Stuttgart have scored at least two goals in four of their last five outings in the German top flight.
The home team’s recent good form has seen Stuttgart move level on points with second-place reigning German champions Bayern Munich, who they only trail on goal difference.
Stuttgart has a stellar recent home record in the Bundesliga. They are unbeaten in their last nine home games, having recorded six wins and three draws.
Die Roten have been prolific on home soil in the German top-flight, scoring at least two goals in 12 of the last 14 home league games.
Winless run hampering Frankfurt’s top-six bidThe Eagles are winless in three Bundesliga outings after a 1-1 home draw against Werder Bremen last time out. Their recent games in the German top flight have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in five of their previous seven league matches.
Despite their recent short winless run in the Bundesliga, the Eagles are still in sixth place, six points clear of seventh-place Augsburg.
Eintracht Frankfurt's recent away record in the Bundesliga is poor, with just one win in their last five matches in the German top flight.
The Eagles' main issue on their travels in the Bundesliga has been conceding too many goals. They have conceded at least seven goals in the last nine matches away from home.
What am I backing?Stuttgart have been in really good form and highly effective at both ends of the pitch, while Frankfurt’s recent form has been unconvincing. The bet I am backing is the home victory.
