The match between Stuttgart and Union Berlin opens the new, 25th round of the German Bundesliga. Sitting third in the table with 50 points from 24 rounds played, Stuttgart are well on their way to securing direct qualification to the Champions League for the first time in over ten years. Since the beginning of the season, they have achieved 16 triumphs, two draws and six defeats in the Bundesliga. In the last match, they won 2-3 away at Wolfsburg, which took them six points ahead of fourth-placed Dortmund. It should be mentioned that Sebastian Hoeness' team especially dominates in front of their fans, with nine wins in 12 league games. In those matches, they scored 35 goals, or in other words, almost 3 per game, which is really impressive. Of course, the biggest credit for that goes to the great attacking duo of Undav and Guirassy, who together have scored 34 goals so far out of the 55 that Stuttgart has scored in the league. On the other hand, Union Berlin currently occupies the 14th position in the Bundesliga with 25 points won. Eight points above the relegation zone and just four points away from the top half of the table, they can now feel safe that worries about relegation are a thing of the past. Despite losing to Dortmund 0-2 at home in the last round, the team from Berlin has shown serious progress since the appointment of coach Nenad Bjelica. Under his leadership, they achieved five triumphs, four draws and five defeats in the previous 14 games played. However, Union Berlin have problems on the road, they have lost eight of their last 11 matches away from home, scoring only 9 goals in those matches. Given Stuttgart's impressive home form since the start of the season, as well as Union Berlin's lackluster performances on the road, a win for the hosts seems like a good bet for their upcoming clash.
斯图加特对柏林联盟的比赛开启了新的第25轮德甲联赛。在24轮比赛中,斯图加特以50分的成绩排名第三,这是他们十多年来第一次直接获得欧冠资格。自本赛季开始以来,他们在德甲取得了16胜2平6负的成绩。在上一场比赛中,他们客场2-3战胜沃尔夫斯堡,领先排名第四的多特蒙德6分。值得一提的是,塞巴斯蒂安·赫内斯的球队在球迷面前尤其占优势,他们在12场联赛中取得了9场胜利。在这些比赛中,他们进了35个球,换句话说,几乎是场均3个,这真是令人印象深刻。当然,这其中最大的功劳要归功于乌达夫和吉拉西这对伟大的进攻组合,在斯图加特在联赛中打进的55个进球中,他们一共打进了34个。另一方面,柏林联盟目前以25分的积分排名德甲第14位。现在他们比降级区高出8分,距离积分榜上半区只有4分的差距,他们现在可以放心了,对降级的担忧已经成为过去。尽管上轮在主场0-2不敌多特蒙德,但这支来自柏林的球队在任命教练内纳德·比耶利卡后取得了长足的进步。在他的带领下,他们在之前的14场比赛中取得了5胜4平5负的成绩。然而,柏林联盟在客场遇到了问题,他们在最近11场客场比赛中输掉了8场,在这些比赛中只进了9球。考虑到斯图加特自赛季开始以来令人印象深刻的主场状态,以及柏林联盟在客场的平淡表现,东道主在即将到来的比赛中获胜似乎是一个不错的选择。
