Player to watch – Harry Kane
Harry Kane is odds-on favourite to win the Bundesliga Golden Boot this season and the England international scored three of his 21 goals in one sitting when Bayern Munich last faced Stuttgart in October.
Razor-sharp Kane can have an influence
Kane is fully fit again having recovered from a calf injury, so expect the experienced campaigner to showcase his sharp finishing skills in and around the Stuttgart penalty area on Friday evening.
