Borussia Dortmund vs VfB Stuttgart Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Die Schwarzgelben to take on VfB Stuttgart in Bundesliga.

Borussia Dortmund are ready to host Sebastian Hoeneß’s VfB Stuttgart in Matchday 21 of the Bundesliga 2024-25 season. Dortmund are struggling as they are in the 11th spot in the league table after having won eight games in 20 matches. VfB Stuttgart are doing well as they sit in the fifth spot and with a win will be able to enter the top four.

Niko Kovac’s men haven’t been able to drop the best of the performances this season. Borussia Dortmund will be at home with some confidence as they were able to take down Heidenheim in their last league match. It was a close contest where they even conceded a goal but in the end, their two-goal cushion came to use.

VfB Stuttgart on the other hand are doing decently well. Yes, they are coming in with a win in their last DFB-Pokal fixture but their last two league matches ended for them as a total disaster. A win over Dortmund will surely take VfB Stuttgart into the Champions League spot. It is mostly going to be an evenly matched contest.

Location: Westfalenstadion, Dortmund, Germany

Players to Watch

Serhou Guirassy (Borussia Dortmund)

He has 10 goal contributions to his name in 17 Bundesliga matches this season. Serhou Guirassy will lead Dortmund’s attack from the front. A win is important here for Dortmund as they can jump up to the fifth spot in the league table. The Guinea national football team player will have to step up and lead his side to a win by scoring a goal or two.

Ermedin Demirovic (VfB Stuttgart)

Bosnia and Herzegovina national football team forward is an essential part of the Bundesliga side VfB Stuttgart. Ermedin Demirovic does have the power to make a difference in the game. He can help his team from dropping points in their next game against Dortmund.
