Full-time: Stuttgart 1-1 Leverkusen

Neither team could deliver a knockout blow as the spoils are shared. Serhou Guirassy and Exequiel Palacios both scored from the penalty spot, but the point does little to push either side closer to their end-of-season goals.

The full-back's deflected shot is safely held by Bredlow.

Pinpoint

There was little Bredlow could do to keep Palacios' penalty out.

Tapsoba fires over!

A free-kick is swung into the box and, despite being unmarked around the penalty spot, the centre-back cannot keep his effort down.

All square

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).

Nothing to separate the two sides, even in terms of xGoals.

Diaby misses the target

An opening for Diaby down the other end, but he skews his shot wide. We have come to expect better from his!

What a miss!

From a few yards, Vagnoman heads wide of the post with the goal at his mercy - how crucial could that miss be?

Leverkusen level things up!

Bredlow clatters Tapsoba and, after a trip to the pitchside monitor, Willenborg points to the spot again. No Panenka from Palacios, but he still finds the bottom corner with aplomb. 1-1!

Stuttgart have lift-off!

The hosts have the lead from the spot! Palacios fouls Endo in the area, giving Frank Willenborg an easy decision as he awards a penalty. From 12 yards, Guirassy produces a stunning Panenka to give his side the lead. Nerves of steel!

Silas threatening

If anyone is going to produce something special, the DR Congo international looks the most likely. He has been lively down the left flank so far.

後半開始

Half-time: Stuttgart 0-0 Leverkusen

A cagey first half comes to a close. Chances were at a premium, and both teams will need to improve significantly after the break if they want to pick up all three points.

Half-time fast approaching

Still time for either side to find an opener before the whistle, though.

39'

Stuttgart starting to threaten

Hoeneß's outfit are beginning to push forward as Endo nods a header wide of the bar.

36'

Gurassy fires over

A glimpse of goal for Stuttgart as the centre-forward drives a shot over the bar. Better from the home outfit.

Stuttgart need inspiration

It's all a bit flat from the hosts - Hoeneß might need to mix things up to give his team extra impetus.

34'

Bakker slices wide

The ball sits up nicely for Bakker, but he gets his volley all wrong and the ball dribbles harmlessly wide.

Endo fluffs his lines

The captain really should do better from Silas' low cross, but totally mistimes his shot and the opening therefore goes begging.

Azmoun chance

Some clever play releases Diaby down the left flank, but the Iran striker cannot turn the winger's cross home. Leverkusen are starting to look dangerous.

Bakker opportunity

A lovely ball from Demirbay finds the left-back at the back post, but he can't direct his effort goalwards. A warning for Stuttgart though.

Quiet start

The two teams appear to be sizing each other up so far.

Here we go!

Stuttgart get us underway!

Stuttgart fans out in force

The home crowd are making themselves heard as the players prepare to enter the pitch!

Leverkusen tough nut to crack away from home

Die Werkself have not conceded in any of their previous three Bundesliga matches on the road - only once have they gone on a better run, keeping five consecutive away clean sheets in 1989.

Under 15 minutes to go

Not long to go until we are underway here at the Mercedes-Benz Arena!

Milestones

Karazor and Anton line up for their 100th match in Stuttgart colours. Will it be a day to remember, or one to forget come the final whistle?

Alonso drops Wirtz

Alonso, meanwhile, introduces four fresh faces to his XI. Two changes are forced, with the injured Andrich and Koussounou being replaced by Demirbay and Bakker respectively. Azmoun comes in for Hlozek, but the big surprise is Wirtz dropping to the bench, with Adli taking his place.

Hoeneß switches things up

Following the hugely disappointing 2-1 victory away at Hertha last week, the Stuttgart head coach makes two changes to his stating XI, with Silas coming in to replace Millot up front and Haraguchi making way for Karazor.

Watch: Leverkusen 2-0 Stuttgart

Moussa Diaby and Jonathan Tah were on the scoresheet when these sides last met in November.

Head-to-head

This match-up has been favourable to Leverkusen in recent years. They are unbeaten in their last eight matches in all competitions versus Stuttgart, winning on seven occasions during that time, with Stuttgart's last victory coming in 2018 when they triumphed 1-0 at the BayArena. Remarkably, you have to go back to 2010 for Die Schwaben's previous win on home soil, with Brazilian Cacau bagging a brace as his side prevailed 2-1.

Sttugart team news

There are a couple of problems for Sebastian Hoeneß to weigh up. Important central defender Konstantinos Mavropanos is out of the clash with a shin problem while Dan-Axel Zagadou had a knee problem during the week, but should be available.

Leverkusen team news

He has done a fantastic job, but there may not be too many envious of Xabi Alonso this weekend. Some tricky selection decisions are in store for the coach - not only to weigh up the need for freshness ahead of the crunch second leg against Roma with Leverkusen's push for a European qualifying spot in the Bundesliga. Odilon Kossounou is definitely out this weekend and Robert Andrich a serious doubt after injuries sustained in Rome, while Jeremie Frimpong was carrying a knock and may therefore be rested.

Derby defeat

An Amine Adli goal was sandwiched by two Davie Selke strikes as Leverkusen lost for the first time in 15 competitive matches last Friday. After their defeat in Rome, they will be keen to return to winning ways.

Plenty of work for Die Werkeslf

Leverkusen's surge in the second half of the season has taken them into the UEFA Europa League semi-finals - with a one-goal first-leg deficit to Roma to overturn next Thursday. They are up to sixth in the Bundesliga too and eager to tie down a European qualifying spot for next season.

2:03

Beaten in Berlin

A Serhou Giurassy strike was not enough for Stuttgart to take anything from the six-pointer last weekend.

Stuttgart locked in survival battle

There will be an eager sense of expectation in Stuttgart for this one. They go into Matchday 32 in 16th, in a relegation play-off spot. Four matches unbeaten had given them great hope until a 2-1 loss to Hertha Berlin plunged them back in danger. A win against Bayer Leverkusen would be celebrated wildly!
