Bayer lost points for the third time in the last four matches. The game in defense raises a lot of questions. In eight rounds, 15 goals have already been conceded. Only seven clubs in the league have more. But the attacking players are also in great shape. Victor Boniface scored in the fourth game in a row and has 8+1 on goal+pass in 11 matches.
Stuttgart is under a lot of pressure because of a great last season. The team adapted pretty quickly to the loss of their leaders this summer. The new pair of defenders plays quite reliably, although not so stable. Deniz Undav is still as good in attack, who has already scored five goals. And last week El-Bilal Toure caught the eye, scoring the winning goals against Juventus and Holstein.
Both teams rely primarily on their attack. This is also evident in the head-to-head matches. Under the current coaches, the clubs have never left the field without scoring in these matches.
