Augsburg boss Jess Thorup will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 5-1 away mauling from Borussia Dortmund.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 40%, while racking up 22 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Borussia Dortmund, who had 21 shots on goal with 10 on target.  

Having lost 15 goals in their past 6 matches, Thorup will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 6 goals they scored.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 29 of their 32 games overall.  

Results have been poor for Augsburg recently, with 4 losses and only 1 win from their last 6 league games their current form is not going to help them move up the table.

Stuttgart will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 3-1 win in their home outing against Bayern Munich.  In that game they recorded 61 % of the possession, with 24 attempts on goal, 10 on target. Their opponents found the target on 3 of their 10 shots on goal.  

While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 8 at the other end which has led to points being dropped.  Their goal scoring streak now stands at 14 games in a row.  

They have had a strong run of away form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 4 wins along the way.  

Serhou Guirassy is the man of the moment at Stuttgart right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 5 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
