Best Tip: Both teams to score

Both Dortmund and Stuttgart fans should have some reason to cheer as their teams go head-to-head, with KickOff's prediction of both teams to score looking a far stronger pick than any bet on the outright winner. The two clubs are more than capable of finding the net, as is borne out by the statistics and past head-to-head data below. Even the bookmakers odds are not finding much to pick between the sides, as striking power and defensive options suggest each team is capable of both scoring and conceding. Both teams to score is the way to go here.
