Greuther Furth are less successful at the start of the new season, comparing to Stuttgart, but still quite solid. The visiting side have two wins (over Nurnberg and Aue), two draws (with Dusseldorf and Sandhausen) and one defeat (to Wurzburger Kickers) in their recent five matches. Seven matches of the season 2016/17 got the visitors 11 points and eighth place in the league standings.
The opponents met 10 times in recent years and Stuttgart have slight advantage in these head-to-heads. Stuttgart are considered as favorites as they have more skilled squad and they have to be involved in promotional battle. On top of that, home-field advantage should help the hosts to reach their objectives.
Prediction for the match: Stuttgart to win.
