🗞️ Team News: Stuttgart

It seems likely that Stuttgart should use a 4-4-2 formation for this game and select Alexander Nuebel, Leonidas Stergiou, Finn Jeltsch, Jeff Chabot, M. Mittelstaedt, Enzo Millot, Atakan Karazor, Angelo Stiller, Chris Fuehrich, Nick Woltemade and Deniz Undav.

ℹ️ Team News: Heidenheim

Heidenheim manager Frank Schmidt has to currently contend with reduced team options. Mathias Honsak (Muscle injury) and Budu Zivzivadze (Outer ligament problems) can’t be considered.

There’s a good chance that Heidenheim could decide to make use of a 3-5-2 lineup, starting the game with Kevin Mueller, Patrick Mainka, Benedikt Gimber, Tim Siersleben, Omar Traore, Niklas Dorsch, Jan Schoeppner, Adrian Beck, Frans Kraetzig, Sirlord Conteh and Marvin Pieringer.

✨ Prediction

In this game, Stuttgart will probably dominate on the ball and be rewarded with decent chances.

Conversely, Heidenheim may well find it hard to get shooting opportunities although we do see them getting the chances to score, too.

We can therefore see a pretty comfortable 3-1 margin for Stuttgart at the end of the match.
