Head-to-head statistics Stuttgart - Paris

Stuttgart Team Overview
Sebastian Hoeness can now focus almost entirely on tactics and team shape - the injury and availability issues are clearing up. Five key players who were at the World Cup have returned to the squad: Angelo Stiller, Jamie Leweling, Deniz Undav, Ermedin Demirović and Héremie Arévalo. They've done their fitness tests and should be available for the match, though they'll likely get limited minutes.
Only two players are still out: Bilal El-Khannouss and Joukha Jacques, who reached the World Cup quarter-finals and will join up later. That said, the thin squad had its upside - Stuttgart's youngsters shone in the pre-season friendlies, winning three matches with a combined score of 20-1. Though the toughest opponent was Kickers Offenbach (8-1), who play in the Regionalliga - the fourth tier of German football.

Paris Team Overview
The French club, who won promotion to Ligue 1 a year earlier and finished mid-table, arrive in Germany on a three-match unbeaten run stretching back to the end of last season - a derby win over PSG (2-1). Liam Rosenior took charge in the summer, and since then the team beat Reims (1-1) and drew with Como (2-2).
Pablo Pagis scored twice against Cesc Fàbregas's side - one of several summer arrivals, signed from Lorient for €15m. In total, the Paris club have spent €79.5m on transfers, without selling a single player - only free departures. The board clearly believe in Rosenior, who did well at Strasbourg.

⭐ Editor's Pick
The first real test for Stuttgart before the season kicks off - and Hoeneß's side look ready for it. Five key players back in the fold gives the manager considerably more options. The attack has been clicking, but the defence hasn't been seriously tested in preseason, and Paris will do exactly that. Most likely Stuttgart win, but they'll concede. Score prediction: 2-1, and the bet to go with is Both Teams To Score (Yes).
