This Bundesliga fixture presents a clear contrast in situations. VfB Stuttgart have collected 6 points from 6 matches, while Borussia Mönchengladbach have no points at all after the same number of games. So this is a match where the hosts want to keep the momentum going, and the visitors need to stop what is happening. VfB Stuttgart have just won 3-0 in Europe and 2-0 in the league, but their last three matches in all competitions also include a 0-1 defeat and a 1-1 draw mixed in. Meanwhile, Borussia Mönchengladbach have lost their last two league games by the same 1-2 scoreline, and across 6 league matches they have scored 8 but conceded 20 goals. A defence that allows opponents to create so many chances is what has dragged them down to 18th place. This game is likely to see the hosts dominate possession and push high from the start, because in their last 10 matches VfB Stuttgart have averaged 58.1% possession and 5.9 shots on target per game, higher than Borussia Mönchengladbach's 52.4% possession and 6.8 shots on target conceded per game. The first half may still be close because the visitors can start well, but in the second half, as the game opens up and the hosts find space, that should be when the match breaks apart.
