Borussia Dortmund welcome Stuttgart to Signal-Iduna-Park for Bundesliga action this Saturday. The home side are fourth in the table with 19 points from ten games, leaving them four points behind leaders Bayern Munich. Stuttgart, meanwhile, are a further five points behind Dortmund in ninth place. Dortmund won their first match in four games in midweek when they picked up a 2-1 victory in the Champions League at Zenit. The goals have dried up for Dortmund in recent weeks due to the absence of key man Erling Haaland. One of the top scorers in the Bundesliga this season, Haaland has been ruled out until January with a muscle tear injury.

Consequently, Dortmund have failed to score more than one goal in three of their last four games. Dortmund are also winless in three of their previous four home games in all competitions. They come into this match on the back of three successive wins over Stuttgart with three or more goals in each success. Stuttgart have lost fewer games than Dortmund, two compared to three, in the league this season but their habit of drawing fixtures has kept them from climbing the table. Only two Bundesliga clubs have drawn more games than Stuttgart's five. The visitors are unbeaten away from home this season, winning three of their five league games, the third-best away record in the division. With Dortmund missing several key players, we think this is a prime opportunity for Stuttgart to end their losing streak. Back the away side in a double chance bet.
