5th position in the Bundesliga table for Wolfsburg so far, a good performance. The home supporters hope for more joy as 7th-placed Stuttgart visits VOLKSWAGEN ARENA.
- Wolfsburg have not yet lost a game at home.
- Stuttgart has the most scored goals (17) away in Bundesliga
Wolfsburg have less rest than Stuttgart in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Bundesliga game only four days ago. That game was an away game at Bayern München, so at least Wolfsburg are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
Wolfsburg form and stats
The home supporters can't complain about results here at VOLKSWAGEN ARENA as Wolfsburg have scored 11 goals to get 14 points from 6 games. The overall stats in the Bundesliga are 4-2-0 (wins-draws-losses). Wolfsburg has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at VOLKSWAGEN ARENA. We remember; it was Augsburg.
The fans are hoping that Wolfsburg will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the Bundesliga game against Bayern München (placed 2nd). Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Eintracht Frankfurt.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Wolfsburg have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found two matches with the results: Won two, drawn zero and lost zero.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Sandhausen are coming to town in three days.
The Wolfsburg fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 11 goals in 6 league matches. 6 goals have been conceded.
Stuttgart form and stats
Stuttgart's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Stuttgart, who have the most scored goals (17) away in Bundesliga, collect 14 points from their 6 away matches in the Bundesliga. 4 victories and 2 draws have created these points (and only 0 defeats). Stuttgart are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played seven in a row without losing.
Stuttgart's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Union Berlin that finished 2-2. Prior to that result Stuttgart won their away game at Borussia Dortmund. The scoreline was 5-1.
Stuttgart's last match (vs Union Berlin) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 0-2. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw after 90 minutes thanks to a 90th minute equalizer by Saša Kalajdžić. Bringing on Saša Kalajdžić was absolutely vital to the comeback against Union Berlin as the player changed the game with two goals and ensuring the draw 2-2.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Stuttgart playing away and similar expectations, we found five relevant matches. Results were two Stuttgart wins, one draw and two defeats.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Freiburg in just three days.
Today's guests are confident travelers having scored 17 goals in 6 league games away this season. 7 goals have been conceded by Stuttgart in these games.
