German 1.Bundesliga:Stuttgart vs Dortmund

Match preview: Stuttgart – Dortmund 2010-01-31 (German 1.Bundesliga)
Obvious progress
Stuttgart has started the season in a catastrophic way, they even spent certain
period of time in the relegation zone. Many didn’t predict such a tough season
for them and after Gross took over, the things started to look much better for
them. The team has been showing much more fighting spirit, while the players
such as Hleb are improving. Stuttgart started climbing in the tables, but it’s
unlikely to believe they will manage to get one of the spots leading to European
competitions. They won against Freiburg by 1:0 last weekend, in the game where
they should’ve scored even more goals. Lehmann will probably again take his
place between the posts, but it’s hard to say that will be an advantage for the
Schwabs as Ulreich has been pretty good on goal so far.
 
Fantastic series
Dortmund is in excellent shape, recording 6 wins in the past 6 matches. Last
week, they recorded an impressive win over Hamburg and right now seem to be one
of the main favorites to take one of the top 3 spots at the end of the season.
Bender definitely won’t start this match which will be a downside for the
visitors, while Kuba is questionable. Ziegler will again start, but that won’t
represent a problem as this veteran proved amazing quality in some of the past
matches. Hajnal started practicing, but it’s hard to expect he will start the
match.
Few goals
This should be a very tough and intense clash as both sides are in good form.
What’s characteristic for both sides is that it’s been very hard to score on
these teams in the past games, and that’s why a bet on the under 2.5 is worth
trying. Good luck.
