Schalke - Borussia Dortmund

Of course, it won't be easy for either team as they both compete for a top four spot and are right next to each other. It's doubtful they will maintain such a high position in the long run, but for now, they have favorable conditions while other teams have to compete in different periods. However, in my opinion, both teams are not particularly strong defensively. Additionally, Stuttgart will have some problems with their strikers, although this may affect the betting odds, there is someone to strike against their playing style which is why I have high hopes for Deniz Undav, whose form is truly amazing. On the other side, Hoffenheim has been surprising me this season with their playing style, although they're not magical, they gather points where they need and do so confidently. Still, as of today, I see Stuttgart as the favorite, as Hoffenheim doesn't have the same depth in their lineup as the home team. If I had to make a prediction, I would say it will be a 3:1 win for Stuttgart, but in the current situation with strikers, a draw score is also likely, as Stuttgart also has some issues with their defense. In my opinion, the best bet would be an over score, with Undav scoring a goal and I will also try to take Stuttgart over 1.5.

However, in my opinion, both teams are not particularly strong in defense. Secondly, Stuttgart will have a lot of problems with their attackers, although this may affect the odds, there is someone to aim at in this style of play they have and I have high hopes for Deniz Undav, whose form is truly amazing. On the other hand, Hoffenheim, who have surprised me this season with their game, although they are not miraculous, they manage to collect points where they are needed most and do so quite confidently. But for now, I still see Stuttgart as the favorite, because Hoffenheim does not have the depth in their squad that the home team can offer. If I had to make a prediction, I would say 3:1 in favor of Stuttgart, but given the current situation with the attackers, a draw score is also quite likely, as Stuttgart has some problems in defense as well. In my opinion, the most optimal bet would be on the over, Undav to score a goal, and I will also try to take Stuttgart over 1.5.

Stuttgart is having a good season, especially when playing at home with only 1 loss and 5 wins out of 6 games. The only loss at home was against Bayern, so it's not a tragedy. Hoffenheim almost got relegated last season, but this season is completely different, although looking at their last away games with a draw against Mainz and a loss against St. Pauli... In my opinion, Stuttgart should win today.
