Eintracht Frankfurt
Stuttgart have lost just one home match this season, and that defeat came in heavy fashion against Bayern Munich. Outside of that result, they have been very solid on their own ground.
They now face an Eintracht Frankfurt side that has conceded the highest number of away goals in the league 21 goals in just eight matches, although they have also scored 18 in that period. However, Eintracht arrive significantly weakened, with key attacking players Batshuayi, Burkardt, and Chaïbi all unavailable due to injuries and AFCON duty.
The main positive for Eintracht is their historical head-to-head record in this fixture when playing away, having managed four wins and just one defeat. Even so, current form and squad availability weigh heavily against them.
What we say
Stuttgart to Win
This matchup is likely to be decided by defensive stability, and Stuttgart clearly have the edge. They have conceded only eight goals in nine home matches, compared to Eintracht’s 21 goals conceded away from home. Combined with Frankfurt’s key absences and Stuttgart’s strong home form this season, the home side are rightly favored to take all three points.
