Stuttgart’s upcoming Bundesliga match against Borussia Dortmund is shaping up to be an exciting clash on Sunday at MHPArena. The hosts, who finished second in the league last season, have had a slow start this campaign with only four points from nine, currently sitting in 11th place. On the other hand, Dortmund is in second place with seven points, coming off a 4-2 victory against Heidenheim in their last match on September 13.
The match between the two teams is expected to be an open contest, with Borussia Monchengladbach creating four big chances and Stuttgart producing six of their own. Despite a 3-1 loss against Real Madrid in their recent Champions League match, Stuttgart’s manager Sebastian Hoeness praised his team’s performance, stating that they played with great courage at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu.
Stuttgart has a solid record at MHPArena, being unbeaten in their last 13 league games at home. They have won 14, drawn seven, and lost just one of their most recent 22 top-flight matches on their home turf.
In terms of team news, English sensation Jamie Bynoe-Gittens has been in fine form, scoring four goals in just 180 minutes of competitive football this season. Meanwhile, Dortmund, under Nuri Sahin’s leadership, has adopted a more attacking style of play and has already kept two clean sheets in the league, matching their previous season’s total.
Despite their recent away struggles, with two losses and a draw in their last three road matches, Dortmund will be hoping to get back to winning ways against Stuttgart. It remains to be seen how this match will unfold, but both teams will be eager to secure the three points on offer.
