Dortmund set to show why they are leaders in Dusseldorf

BT Sport, from 5.30pm Tuesday

Dusseldorf v Dortmund

BT Sport 2, 7.30pm

Christmas has come early for Borussia Dortmund fans with their side nine points clear of Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich and the leaders show few signs of slowing up.

Five of their last six wins have been by one-goal margins but they should find things easier against Fortuna Dusseldorf, who have lost five of their eight home fixtures this term.

Recommendation
Dortmund-Dortmund double result
2pts 13-10 Coral, Ladbrokes

Bet on this game at Soccerbase.com

Key stat
Dusseldorf haven't scored in the first 30 minutes of any Bundesliga game this season.

Wolfsburg v Stuttgart

BT Sport ESPN, 7.30pm

Wolfsburg's eight home fixtures have included games against six of the Bundesliga top seven so their defence may find things easier against struggling Stuttgart.

The visitors have struggled for goals and points on the road this season and last weekend's home win over Hertha Berlin at the weekend was overshadowed by the death of captain Christian Gentner's father in the stadium.

Recommendation
Under 2.5 goals
1pt 66-67 188Bet

Bet on this game at Soccerbase.com

Key stat
Stuttgart have lost six of their eight away matches this season.

Monchengladbach v Nuremberg

BT Sport 2, 5.30pm

Borussia Monchengladbach are level on points with Bayern Munich after 15 Bundesliga games and they should extend their winning run at home to eight matches.

Gladbach are full of goals, scoring three or more in five of their seven home wins, while struggling Nuremberg have conceded five at Schalke, six at Leipzig and seven at leaders Borussia Dortmund this season.

Recommendation
Gladbach to win & over 3.5 goals
1pt 2-1 Betfair

Bet on this game at Soccerbase.com

Key stat
Gladbach have won all seven of their home Bundesliga games by an aggregate score of 21-3.
