Stuttgart rolls into Dortmund this weekend, and honestly, this one feels like a coin flip despite what the table says. The key matchup to watch has to be Niclas Füllkrug against Stuttgart's center-back pairing of Waldemar Anton and Hiroki Ito. Füllkrug has bagged 11 goals in 26 Bundesliga appearances this season, but Stuttgart's defense has been stingy, allowing only 34 goals all year, the third-best mark in the league.
Here's the thing: Dortmund’s been flying in the Bundesliga, winning their last four straight, including that impressive 2-0 win over Bayern. Stuttgart, though, has been right there with them, unbeaten in eight league games, winning seven of those and drawing one. They’re a legitimate Champions League contender. This feels like a tight, cagey affair. I'm going with a 1-1 draw.
