Stuttgart

Saturday’s football game at Schwarzwald-Stadion pits together Freiburg and Stuttgart, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Bundesliga standings. Freiburg aim to move a little closer to the Europa League berth, with the team eyeing their fourth consecutive win on home soil. Christian Streich’s troops scored seven goals in total in the previous two home fixtures, and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach against Stuttgart. Die Schwaben, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a heavy 3-0 loss to Arminia Bielefeld.

Stuttgart experienced all sorts of problems at the back in the midweek defeat, and given Freiburg’s attacking potential when playing at Schwarzwald-Stadion, home win should be considered. Hofler returns from suspension for the hosts, while Abrashi, Flekken, Kwon Chang-Hoon, Santamaria, and Schmid remain in the recovery room. Both Gonzalez and Wamangituka are back from suspension for the visitors, while Mola, Egloff, Awoudja, and Al Ghaddioui are sidelined with injuries.
