Stuttgart
Last weekend, Stuttgart let victory slip right at the end of an away match against Mainz (2:2). Dropping points was painful, but the home side’s unbeaten run in the Bundesliga has now reached four matches (two wins, two draws). The club have suffered just one defeat in their last 12 league fixtures, and it is worth adding that the only poor result in that spell came on the road. On home soil, the team have gone six Bundesliga matches without losing, winning four of those six games. Before the weekend began, the club sat fourth in the standings, two points off the top three.
- Stuttgart have not conceded more than one goal in five of their last six home matches in the Bundesliga.
- The team’s scoring streak in this tournament has reached 10 games.
