Stuttgart Team Overview
⚪ Stuttgart sit in eleventh place, aiming to solidify their position closer to the upper half of the table. While the Swabians boast a decent attacking output with an average of 1.74 goals per match, their defense leaves much to be desired, conceding an average of 1.63 goals per game.
🔗 Stuttgart have gone six Bundesliga matches without a win (two draws and four losses, with a goal difference of 8:13). However, on Wednesday, they played a crucial cup match against Leipzig and emerged victorious (3-1), advancing to the final where they will face Arminia. Deniz Undav did not feature in that match but might start in place of Demirović.
❌ The visitors will miss a significant number of players for the upcoming match, primarily affecting their defense. The most notable absence is team leader Angelo Stiller, who will miss the game due to yellow card accumulation. He is pivotal in orchestrating their attacks. Similarly, starting right-back Maximilian Mittelstädt is sidelined for the same reason. Center-back Ameen Al-Dakhil is serving a suspension following a straight red card. Injuries also rule out Vagnoman (right-back), Zagadou (center-back), Dill (left winger), and Raimund (right winger).
