Stuttgart will visit the BayArena to face Leverkusen on Saturday evening.
After 45 games across all competitions, Leverkusen remain unbeaten, with Josip Stanisic’s last-gasp equaliser against Dortmund keeping the hosts’ astonishing record alive. Although Xabi Alonso’s side have already been crowned as champions, the hosts will be motivated by their hopes to continue their unbeaten record for the remainder of the season.
Stuttgart have clearly been the Bundesliga’s most improved outfit this season. The visitors narrowly avoided relegation last season, but have had a completely different 2023/24 campaign, with Sebastian Hoeneß guiding his side to third place in the Bundesliga, currently sitting six points ahead of those outside the Champions League qualification places.
