Bayer Leverkusen v Stuttgart

This has become a physical affair of late.Stuttgart's visit here last season saw Leverkusen getting 4 cards and these also met in the German Super Cup, the season opener where Leverkusen had Terrier sent off with 4 others getting yellow and 2 more were shown cards despite not being on the pitch.

This season has been tough for Leverkusen with their first 2 home matches both recording over 2.5 booking and they have received 2 each in the last 2 and as their outings againt Stuttgart have been fiery of late, I fancy over 2.5 cards tonight for the hosts.
