Team News

Stuttgart
Sparta Prague
  • Dan-Axel Zagadou, Justin Diehl, Leonidas Stergiou and Nikolas Nartey all miss out on Tuesday.
  • Ameen Al-Dakhil is a doubt due to illness.
  • Sparta have three confirmed absentees here with Imanol Garcia, Elias Coubbaut and Mathias Ross ruled out for the Czech side.

Prediction

  • 10-man VfB Stuttgart were held to a 2-2 draw at Wolfsburg at the weekend but they come into their meeting with Sparta Prague unbeaten at home this season, scoring eight times in the process.
  • Sparta opened their Champions League campaign with a fine 3-0 win over Salzburg. However, they fell to a home defeat to Sigma Olomouc on Friday, which was hardly ideal prep for this week's game in Germany.
  • With home advantage, Stuttgart should feel confident of victory this week.
