xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).
The XG shows there have been few clear-cut opportunities, but it has been an intense encounter and there's every chance it could pick up with both teams needing points.

Watch: Perfect conditions in Augsburg

More on that Stuttgart side

Just the one change for the visitors after their very spirited 3-3 draw against Dortmund. Hiroki Ito replaces the suspended Konstantinos Mavropanos. Ito scored the last time he appeared against Bochum.

More on that Augsburg side

It's quite an attacking selection from Enrico Maaßen - who has replaced suspended captain Jeffrey Gouweleeuw and Robert Gumny, who is on the bench tonight, with Ruben Vargas and Ermedin Demirovic in two changes to the side that lost 3-2 in Leipzig. Felix Uduokhai is captaining the side for the first time this season.

New coach bounce

Stuttgart are unbeaten in three competitive matches since Sebastian Hoeneß replaced Bruno Labbadia as head coach. VfB got the better of Bundesliga 2's Nuremberg in the DFB Cup quarter-finals on the former Hoffenheim boss's debut, before beating relegation rivals Bochum 3-2 on Matchday 27 and denting BVB's title aspirations last time out.
