VfB Stuttgart

Antonio Rüdiger returns from suspension to start at centre-back. Daniel Schwaab and Gotoku Sakai compete for the spot at right-back. Timo Werner and Moritz Leitner could keep their spots on the flanks, with Martin Harnik and Ibrahima Traoré remaining on the bench.

Borussia M.Gladbach

Roel Brouwers returns from injury, but Toni Jantschke will most likely keep his spot at centre-back for now. Havard Nordtveit is fully fit again and is the first option in central midfield. Manager Lucien Favre could field an unchanged starting XI though.

Prediction

After four games without a victory, Stuttgart won at Freiburg before the international break and have several injured players available again. Gladbach have won their last three games, but their performance against Nürnberg a fortnight ago was not very impressive. Manager Favre needs to continue to work on his team’s balance. Expect this to be a competitive game with several chances at both ends of the pitch.
