More on that Stuttgart team
As expected, Sebastian Hoeneß has selected strike sensations Serhou Guirassy and Deniz Undav together again after they both scored in the 2-0 win over Werder Bremen last weekend. He goes with the same XI that started the 2-0 win over Dortmund in the DFB Cup in midweek.
More on that Leverkusen team
The headline news is that Florian Wirtz starts after the young playmaker was declared a doubt ahead of the match due to an ankle injury. There is one change to the side that drew 1-1 against Dortmund last week. Jonas Hofmann starts on the bench for the first time this season, with Amine Adli in the line-up instead.
