Prediction

  • After an impressive "Klassiker" win, 4th placed BVB host 3rd placed VfB aiming to close the gap to just a point.
  • Dortmund will have one eye on their Champions League trip to face Atletico Madrid in midweek.
  • Following back-to-back defeats immediately after the winter break, third-placed Stuttgart have bounced back with an impressive nine-game unbeaten run to maintain their strong Champions League push.
  • The reverse fixture ended 2-1 in Stuttgart's favour who also won their cup meeting, but BVB can gain revenge on home soil with goals at both ends.
