…TSG's record against VfB has improved considerably in recent years?

VfB Stuttgart dominated the first 12 competitive meetings between the two clubs, winning seven times and losing on only one occasion. But the balance of power has shifted in recent years, with TSG winning five of the last nine games between the sides (D2 L2).

…Stuttgart are on a six-game unbeaten run?

Since losing 3-2 to SC Freiburg on the opening day of the campaign, the newly-promoted side have two wins and four draws to their name. The last time Stuttgart went on such a run was in the second half of the 2017/18 season, when they went eight games unbeaten.

The Reds have lost on their last two visits to Sinsheim  1-0 in 2017/18 and 4-0 in 2018/19  without scoring a goal.

…Stuttgart are currently on excellent form away from home?

The Swabians have not lost any of their three Bundesliga matches on the road in the 2020/21 season. They came away from 1. FSV Mainz 05 and Hertha BSC with victories, while their visit to FC Schalke 04 ended 1-1. As a result, VfB have the third-best away record in the division behind only FC Bayern and Bayer 04 Leverkusen.

…TSG are averaging two points a game this season when Andrej Kramarić plays?

Due to a coronavirus infection, Andrej Kramarić has already missed four Bundesliga matches this term. TSG have averaged 2.0 points per game (six points from three matches) when Kramarić has been leading the line, compared to 0.3 points per game without the Croatian forward.
