THE PREDICTION
Stuttgart will still be on cloud nine following their stunning 5-1 thrashing of Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, which drew them level on points with upcoming opponents Union Berlin in sixth place. Pellegrino Matarazzo’s side have lost just once since the opening weekend - and that was to Bayern Munich - although they are still searching for a first home win of the campaign. Union also enjoyed an impressive result at the weekend, holding Bayern to a 1-1 draw in the capital as they proved they can cope without injured talisman Max Kruse. Both of these sides have scored in all their Bundesliga matches this season but have also conceded in most of them, so both teams to score looks a good bet here.
