Frankfurt head into this one on the back of a 1-1 draw against Arminia Bielefeld in their previous match.
Hauge’s first half goal was cancelled out late by Wimmer’s equalizer in the second half to ensure a point a piece.
The home side is yet to pick up a win this season and should use the draw as a confidence booster during this match.
With 2 draws and 1 loss, they stand in the 14th position of the table.

On the other hand, Stuttgart lost their previous match 2-3 against Freiburg.
Jeong scored twice within the first 10 minutes before Höler made it 3-0 but 2 goals in first half extra time from Mavropanos and Ghaddioui gave Stuttgart life; but was not enough.
Stuttgart is 12th in the points table with 3 points from as many matches which includes just a sole win and two losses.

⏱FT’: Full-time in the Baden-Württemberg derby, as #VfB fall 3-2 at home to @scfreiburg. Really well battled to get back to 3-2, but sadly no dice.

Prediction: Frankfurt 1-1 Stuttgart
With both sides having struggled to get this season up and running, we expect a closely fought affair.
A draw is the fairest result possible even though Frankfurt holds the aces with home advantage.
