Arminia Bielefeld or Draw

Stuttgart's five home wins have come against teams lower than them in the points table this season, winning five and drawing two with one loss. They have plenty at stake with their ambitions of Europa Conference League qualification still on the line. However, Bielefeld is battling relegation with just a point separating them from demotion. They need a positive result to ensuring continuity in German top-flight football. They have managed to crawl out of the relegation slots with successive draws and will be looking for one last hurrah to be in the Bundesliga next year.

Total Goals: Under 2.5

The hosts have registered two successive wins to give them a shout at European competitions next year. Both fixtures saw the Over 2.5 come true in 2-1 scorelines. They will now take on the challenge of Bielefeld, who have three or more goals just once in their last eight matches. The visitors will not change their game plan at this junction and look to hold their rivals to a low-scoring affair in their bid for survival.

Both Teams to Score: No

In the last ten competitive outings involving Arminia Bielefeld, a clean sheet was observed for either side on seven occasions. The statistic stands at five for matches in which Stuttgart have completed, with the Reds failing to get on the scoreboard twice in this period. Stuttgart will have to overcome Bielefeld's defence, a task in which top-half sides have struggled at. With the Blues struggling equally to score with regularity, a clean sheet for either side is expected.

Stuttgart vs Bielefeld: Team News and Match Preview

VfB Stuttgart

The Swabians have returned to the thick of things in their return to the Bundesliga. The top half of the table finish has been guaranteed but Stuttgart can go one step further by qualifying for the UEFA Europa Conference League. Arminia Bielefeld stands in their way, the same side that pipped them to the 2.Bundesliga title last season. Pellegrino Matarazzo's men can exact revenge in the final outings of the season, sending the Blues back to the second division in the process. Sasa Kalajdzic has shined for Stuttgart this season, leading the club's scoring charts with 16 strikes. The Austrian forward can further add to his tally, after scoring in successive fixtures against Borussia Monchengladbach and FC Augsburg.

Arminia Bielefeld

Come Matchday 34, the Blues stand outside the relegation slots but can still be demoted without a positive result. More was expected from them this season after winning the 2.Bundesliga but their stuttering performances have curtailed them. While their defence was supposed to come under question, more worrying has been their forwards' inability to carry any momentum forward. After scoring 21 goals last season, Fabian Klos has been utterly out of his element this campaign. Klos has just four goals to his name, the same as 22-year-old Ritsu Doan. The Japanese has did not make the same impact he had hoped for but fared much better than his teammates in his first year with Arminia Bielefeld.
