VfB Stuttgart Form

Consistency has not been a trademark for VfB Stuttgart recently, and their last three matches first saw them sharing the points in a 3-3 draw with Eintracht Braunschweig. This was followed by a 1-0 win against Borussia Moenchengladbach, before they lost 3-1 against Freiburg. VfB Stuttgart claimed a modest two wins in their past six home matches in the Bundesliga. They also drew zero and lost four, scored ten goals and conceded ten.
