VfB Stuttgart - Bayern München

The last match from Round 19 will be played in Stuttgart between VfB and Bayern Munich. The home team had not many success in the past against this opponent. They are on a huge losing streak right now and it would be very hard for them today too. They are one of the better away teams in this league but lost the first match in Wolfsburg 0-2. Maybe it was a bit unlucky because they are not such bad and the first goal was a shot from Diego from 25 metres. But overall they made to many mistakes and therefore you can not win a game. Also the situation from the coach is still open as Labbadia has not signed the contract but they said that both sides are on a good way. Hopefully they do it fast and end up the concern about this. I said already that Stuttgart is one of the better sides away but at home they did much harder and can not collect so many points so far. They are one of the weakest teams there, maybe they have some problems if they must make the play as they are much better on the counter attacks. It is almost logical with these fast wings who like more to have a lot of space. Both wings with Harnik and Traore has to improve a lot against the best defensive with only 7 goals conceded and only one away from home. This would be hard work and hard fight for them today. With Sakai suspended, Boka at African Cup, Cacau injured long term and Hoogland too they miss some. But also some good news as with important striker Ibisevic returns their best man upfront from suspension and also central midfielder Kvist is ready for his comeback after injury.

The best team this season is rolling again after the break. Sure they did not much against Fürth and maybe if Fürth can use their biggest chance it had been more close. Bayern played only their style down as they want only the points nothing more as they have a lot of matches ahead and in this case they do not want to push from beginning on. Additional after the break it is always a bit difficult to come in running. With the next match ahead they can bring a bigger distance between them and 2nd place as Leverkusen got only a draw and if they win they have an advance of 11 points and this is almost uncatchable. Coach Heynckes managed the defensive problems from last season and they are very hard to beat, also in offensive they have huge potential and they are always able to create some and score anyway. All in all they can only fail if they have an absolutely weak day or their opponent plays the match of the year. It is not clear if Heynckes gives the same lineup a chance or maybe change on 1-2 positions. Robben trained well and maybe should be the first option for a change, in this case Müller or Kroos are out and sit on bench then. No important missings, as only long term injured Badstuber is out. Second keeper Starke has some problem with his hand but it is not so important where is on bench as second keeper.

If anyone want to bet on this I only can prefer Bayern Munich, they are the much better side here, also their players are ahead of Stuttgart's. Of course, sometimes it was very close here but I do not think like this as Stuttgart was to weak at home and Bayern Munich with this defensive and offensive are hard to stop. GL
