New Borussia Dortmund manager Niko Kovac is set to take charge of his first game on Saturday when his side host Stuttgart at Signal Iduna Park in the Bundesliga.

Borussia Dortmund:

Dortmund will be under the guidance of their new manager Niko Kovac, who will be keen to make a strong first impression. The team secured a narrow 2-1 win over Heidenheim in their last match, but they've been inconsistent this season, sitting 11th in the Bundesliga. While they’ve scored eight goals in their last four games, their defense has been shaky, conceding six times and failing to keep a clean sheet in 12 matches. However, Kovac's experience in the Bundesliga could bring much-needed stability. Dortmund’s home form remains solid, having won 11 of their last 12 at Signal Iduna Park, and a win here could significantly close the gap to the Champions League spots.

Stuttgart:

Stuttgart will be hoping to bounce back from their 2-1 loss to Borussia Monchengladbach, which ended a strong run of results. They’ve been solid away from home, winning four of their past five road games. Their recent win in the DFB-Pokal, a 1-0 triumph over Augsburg, showed a much-needed defensive improvement with their first clean sheet in five matches. However, Stuttgart’s recent form has been patchy, with three losses in their last four league matches, despite winning eight of the previous nine. They will look to extend their strong away form and challenge Dortmund for the points in what could be a high-stakes clash.

Prediction：2-2
