Lahm: They certainly won't be handing the points over before kick-off. They won't lie down easily and that's something we have always exp erienced in Stuttgart over the last years.
They'll play aggressively, they'll be compact and try to catch us on the counter.
Pep: We're up against a very aggressive, very focused team.
Lahm: We haven't lost for a while in the Bundesliga, so I think that we can go into the game relatively relaxed.
Pep: Stuttgart are a team, a club, that always have the focus and their heads in the right place following a defeat.
Lahm: We have to go onto the pitch fully concentrated and play aggressively.
Pep: Stuttgart are always dangerous and aggressive during the opening 15 minutes in their own stadium.
Lahm: I think it's simply up to us. If we put in a performance then it's difficult for any opponent to play against us.
On Wednesday, we have a big chance to up the ante and increase our gap at the top and that of course is our main goal.
