Match Preview Vfb Suttgart – Borussia Dortmund
Dormund should not be be distracted by their Champions League clash with Juventus, and should play his strongest team against the Bundesliga’s bottom club Stuttgart. They didn’t cross a good form this season and they had been passed through a bad period, having won 2 of their five group matches. In the Bundesliga, Dortmund is ranked on the 15 th place in the standings with only 10 points, near the reglation zone.
“We will field the best team against Stuttgart – I won’t rest anyone for the Juve match,” Klopp told his pre-match media conference on Wednesday.
Dortmund have regained confidence with back-to-back wins. They have scored 7 goals in these wins and seem to be more versatile on the attack again.
Mats Hummels is still suffering , he has missed the last two matches due to a foot injury and could be replaced by Sokratis. The good news is that Sven Bender and Sebastian Kehl will be on the field and will perform in this game in central midfield, and the striker Ciro Immobile is available after recovering from his illness
The club decide it’s priorities and the Champions League it is certainly on the top of Dormund list, but they aren’t in the position to take one competition more seriously than another so they have to go all out to win tonight’s game.
By the other side, Stuttgard come into the meeting with Dortmund with a low morale after they failed to win a game from their last five competition. They have some missing players, Huub Stevens is under pressure and he has to find the right balance to be more dangerous on the attack. Stuttgart have lost 5 of their last 6 home matches in the Bundesliga.
The bad news for them is that Borussia Dortmund are undefeated in their last 9 matches against Stuttgart in all competitions.
