Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Stuttgart in 10th and Borussia M'gladbach in 7th place.
- Stuttgart have yet to win a game at home.
- Borussia M'gladbach has the most dropped points from leading position (16) in Bundesliga
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
Stuttgart form and stats
With 0 Bundesliga wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Stuttgart are certainly not brimming with confidence. Stuttgart are slowly digging their own grave here at Mercedes-Benz-Arena with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the Sandhausen match.
It's back home for Stuttgart, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Augsburg away with the result 4-1. Gonzalo Castro, Silas Wamangituka, Daniel Didavi and Nicolás González found the net in that victory. Preceding that match was a defeat to RB Leipzig (0-1).
There will be little rest for Stuttgart after this match as they are travelling to Arminia Bielefeld for a Bundesliga game in only four days.
The Stuttgart fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 7 matches. Stuttgart have conceded 13 from these games.
Borussia M'gladbach form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team on their Bundesliga travels is 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats.
M'gladbach go into this game after a win, the home game against Bayern München that ended 3-2. Prior to that result Borussia M'gladbach won their away game at Arminia Bielefeld. The scoreline was 1-0.
M'gladbach can call themselves comeback kings after the match against Bayern München. Buried deep in trouble at 0-2, the troops rallied and completely turned the match around to a 3-2 victory. Florian Neuhaus scored the final goal.
After this away game M'gladbach return home for a Bundesliga game against Werder Bremen. That game is only three sleeps after this.
With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Borussia M'gladbach are regular goalscorers on their travels. For M'gladbach, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
