Stuttgart- Glasgow
i agree that the Stuttgart line for tomorrow seems "strange", but you have to figure in how Stuttgart team "works".
i always like the fact in football if one team has something to play for and the other not, which is the case here. Stuttgart is already out of everything. they cannot even reach the 3rd spot and uefa-cup anymore, but they are a ver young team.
I am not a big Stuttgart fan and i think they were not the best team in germany last season, when they won it...they simply had an amazing run (basically the last 10 games), which happens in all sports, where a team plays "out of their minds" almost every game. they just dont wake up during that dream and the hot streak continues. this happens especially to teams like Stuttgart that are very young, where the players dont realize what they are doing until it s finally over.
anyway: they qualified for ECL this year, suddenly had some injury problems this season and had to cope with the added pressure of being the german champion (now finally awake). that resulted in a very disappointing start in Bundesliga and ECL as well.
Now they turned it around and won 4 games in a row in Bundesliga including a 3-1 trashing of Bayern at home and saturday s 4-1 away win at Frankfurt...they seem to play "loose" again, which helps them.
The Glasgow, although officially nothing to play for is a game for pride...it s probably their last game in ECL at home for quite some time, as i dont expect them to make the qualy again. they will simply enjoy the occasion together with their fans of playing on the big stage and this is a situation (although i dont like it in general) actually works for that team.
than you have on the other team a scotish team. Not to be disrespectful...but an inform german team should be (and is) still at least at the same level of either rangers or celtic. with the home advantage the line is actually ok at -0.25...i would even think if Stuttgart had something to play for the line would be -0.5, which according to my write up and the "stuttgart theory" makes Stuttgart a play for me.
BOL what ever you do.
