VfB Stuttgart have earned plaudits and acclaim this season, with their style of play under Sebastian Hoeneß, accompanied by stellar performances from the likes of Angelo Stiller this season.

In the Bundesliga, Sebastian Hoeneß’s side are still on the hunt to return to the European elite next season, as the home side are seventh in the league standings. Stuttgart are only three points away from fourth-placed SC Freiburg, meaning a win and results elsewhere, could move Stuttgart into the top four.

Bayern Munich are top of the league by eight points, meaning a defeat on Friday will still leave them with a healthy gap before Bayer Leverkusen play their respective game against Eintracht Frankfurt. The reverse fixture between the two sides, resulted in a 4-0 win for Bayern Munich with goals from Kingsley Coman and Harry Kane (x3).
