Chai! My people, e don reach time wey VfB Stuttgart go face SC Freiburg for di big Baden-Schwaben derby. This match get serious gist because dem don beef since di last time wey Freiburg knack dem 3-1 for their own backyard back in September. E be like say Stuttgart no go fit forget dat kain disgrace easily, abi you sabi wetin I mean?
Make we talk about di form of dis clubs. Stuttgart dey shine like fresh palm oil after dem suffer serious wahala when Bayern Munich give dem 5-0 disgrace last December. Dem don pick up small momentum since den, with dem latest win na 3-0 against Borussia Mönchengladbach. Na home dem dey flex, because dem don lose only one match for home all dis season. Na serious matter!
But no forget say Freiburg dey come as dem wey wan spoil dem party. Even though dem lose to Lille OSC for dia last match, dem still manage secure dem passage to UEFA round of 16 after dem sabi win 5 matches out of 8. But the away form dey worry dem, as dem don lose four out of dia last seven e no sweet at all.
For injury wahala, na only Dan-Axel Zagadou and Tiago Tomas be di casualties for Stuttgart side. Bilal El Khannouss don return as substitute, and e fit start for dis match. While for Freiburg side, Phillip Lienhart dey come back soon, but Daniel-Kofi Kyereh never see pitch since 2023. Na wah o!
As dem dey prepare for di game, Stuttgart supporters dey claim say dis match no be derby, but make I tell you, for Freiburg people, na serious matter. Di last time wey Freiburg visit Neckarstadion, e be like say dem drink from di fire as Stuttgart give dem 4-0 razzle-dazzle, so dem fit get dey mind to come run am back.
Make you no forget di predicted lineups too. Stuttgart go set demself like dis na: Nübel – Vagnoman, Jeltsch, Chabot, Hendriks – Karazor, Stiller – Leweling, Nartey, El Khannouss – Undav. And for Freiburg, dem fit line-up like: Atubolu – Treu, Ginter, Rosenfelder, Makengo – Eggestein, Manzambi – Beste, Suzuki, Scherhant – Matanović.
As di match dey come close, all eyes go dey on di strikers. If Undav fit show early for Stuttgart like wetin we know am for, e fit scatter di defense of Freiburg. But no forget say Vincenzo Grifo from Freiburg no dey carry small matter; di boy sabi wahala for opposition.
The match dey sweet in any angle you look am. Football no get wetin e no fit happen! Na today sharp at 3:30 PM CET, everybody go sit down touch road watch as dem go display as dem dey fight for top positions in Bundesliga. Na only time go tell who go carry di three points go home!
