| Stuttgart fans definitely should be happy from the first half of the season. The team manage to do well without Serhou Guirassy, who was not in the squad for the last two league games but will be ready to play against Mainz. At the beginning of the year, Stuttgart was still struggling without the star striker who played in the Africa Cup. But given the latest trend, it will be an extremely difficult task for Mainz to take a point from Stuttgart. The odds are a bit too low for a home win and the bookies believe that the hosts are firm favorites for the win. The guests only manage to score 15 goals in twenty games as only Koln have scored less. While Stuttgart was able to end their short misery with two wins in a row, Mainz continues to languish in the bottom part of the table. They've been waiting for a win for 10 games. In the last eight games, Mainz have only scored three goals, which is as many as Stuttgart alone gave Freiburg last weekend. At the same time, Mainz has only kept a clean sheet against Darmstadt and Koln this season. |
