Stuttgart’s amazing season will continue with a home game against Eintracht Frankfurt in the Bundesliga this Saturday. Placed third, Stuttgart are tied with Bayern Munich on 60 points, 18 more than sixth placed Eintracht Frankfurt’s tally. For a side that stayed up through the relegation playoffs last season, Stuttgart have outdone themselves. As things stand, one more point will guarantee them a place in Europe next season. However, with their performance so far, Stuttgart will not be mistaken to target the highest club competition. A top four finish will guarantee that, and it is very clear what Stuttgart want at the end of the season. They are coming from a 1-0 win over fellow top four contenders Borussia Dortmund. That win didn’t just boost their Champions League hopes, it also handed them a comfortable seven-point buffer. In the context of the Bundesliga, it was also their 10th unbeaten game, Stuttgart having won eight. Their only defeat in the last 11 matches was in the DFB Pokal, against Bundesliga leaders Bayer Leverkusen.

Eintracht Frankfurt are among the sides that have experienced Stuttgart’s rise this season, losing the reverse fixture 2-1 at home. Before that defeat, they were on a nine-game unbeaten run against Stuttgart, winning five. They’ll be keen on resuming their dominance in this fixture even though their recent form has them as underdogs. At 42 points, Frankfurt have a six-point gap ahead of the side closest to them, and on the way to securing European football. They will however want a higher finish than sixth, so we expect them to give more for the 18 points still up for grabs. That effort hasn’t, however, been seen in recent matches. Frankfurt have recently been dumped out of the Conference League, and failed to win any of their last three league matches. In their last 11 matches, they managed just two wins, though they lost only three of those. Their away run isn’t strong either, with just two wins and six defeats in the last 12.
