Stuttgart going for broke
The away side are attacking in waves now, desperately seeking the winner. Hoffenheim look to counter whenever they regain the ball but it just keeps on coming back at them.
87'
Wasteful
Stuttgart give the ball away cheaply inside their own half and Tabaković is able to charge at the away side's defence. He has options to his left but opts to shoot from range and it's blocked away to safety.

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).

Stuttgart almost regain the lead!
A long ball is sent into the Hoffenheim box. Woltemade heads down to Undav, unmarked on the penalty spot. The German chests it down and volleys towards goal but Philipp reacts superbly to beat the ball away. It comes down to Führich, on the right of the area, but the winger's volley whistles past the foot of the left post.

Orban levels!
Hoffenheim break forward and the ball is worked to the right side of the Stuttgart box, where Orban takes a touch inside his marker ands curls an effort beyond Nübel into the top corner of the net. Superb finish from the Nigerian.
Goal probability
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.
Distance to Goal
Distance to Goal
The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.

Brilliant from Philipp!
Two fantastic stops in a row from the goalkeeper. The first denies Undav from a tight angle, before Woltemade is kept out from point-blank range. Where would Hoffenheim be without Philipp in this match?

Woltemade close!
The ball ricochets around the Hoffenheim box before Stiller takes charge on the left-hand side and plays a slide rule pass into the feet of Woltemade, in space on the penatly spot. The striker turns and fires towards goal, but it's another top save from Philipp.
69'
Final pass missing
Neat play down Stuttgart's right flank sees Bischof play Stach in behind the defence. The midfielder attempts a backheel into the area but it's blocked by a defender. It's just that final pass that might cost Hoffenheim points from this match.
67'
Tough day at the office.
60'
Stiller should score!
The midfielder charges at the Hoffenheim defence before exchanging a clever one-two with Undav. The reverse pass plays Stiller into the box, where he finds himself one-on-one with the goalkeeper. But Philipp makes a huge contribution by keeping the score at 1-0.

Philipp kept busy
The Hoffenheim stopper comes to gather a corner, misses it and then catches the resulting cross back into the box.

Good start from Hoffenheim
The hosts have come out strongly. Stach is sent charging through behind the Stuttgart defence but it's just out of reach and Nübel gathers.

Ouch!
Undav is caught in possession in his own half and Hoffenheim launch forward. After a string of passes, Bülter smashes one from distance and it cannons into Jeltsch's face. The defender goes down in a heap and needs medical attention. The game is paused for a moment while this takes place.

Bischof lashes out
Perhaps in frustration more than anything, Bischof hacks down Stiller in midfield and gives away a free kick. The referee gives the youngster a stern warning.

Superb goalkeeping!
Mittelstädt pings a long diagonal to Undav, on the right of the Hoffenheim box. The striker cuts it back to an unmarked Karazor, who fires across goal. Philipp is equal to it, tipping it on to the left post. It soon comes back, with Woltemade carrying into the box and shooting again – Phillipp denies him again. A goalmouth scramble ends with the ball being cleared. Incredible reactions from the 'keeper.

Frustrating
Every time Hoffenheim win the ball back and advance into Stuttgart's half, they're quickly dispossessed and placed on the back foot again.

Stuttgart bossing it
Stuttgart enjoy a strong spell in possession which culminates in Leweling crossing from the right to the back post. Woltemade gets up but he's under pressure and Hoffenheim reclaim.

Hoffenheim awake
Going a goal behind has shaken Hoffenheim awake. Bülter and Stach have shooting chances in quick succession, though both are blocked.

Woltemade scores!
Mittelstädt receives the ball wide on the right near the halfway line. He sends a flat diagonal up towards Undav. The forward dummies it and the ball rolls straight into the path of an unmarked Woltemade, completely alone in the middle of the box. The German slots to the right of Philipp to hand his side the lead.

First chance to Stuttgart
The away side take a short corner and Führich sends an inswinger to the back post. Woltemade meets it, though it's behind him and, under pressure, he can only flick out for a goal kick.

As expected, the away outfit begin to dictate play in the early stages.
Kick-off!
Neither side consistent
Hoffenheim's last five fixtures have featured two wins, two defeats and a draw – a real mixed bag. Stuttgart have been slightly worse, with two wins and three defeats.
Hoeneß switches three
Following last weekend's home defeat to Wolfsburg, the Stuttgart coach drops Hendriks, Vagnoman and Millot to the bench. Stergiou, Jeltsch and Woltemade take their places.
Ilzer makes defensive switches
The Hoffenheim coach makes two changes from the side that won 3-1 away at Werder Bremen on Matchday 22. Akpoguma and Prass come in at the back for Østigård and Kadeřábek.

Please, take my unwanted record
Hoffenheim have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last 31 Bundesliga home games, equalling the league record also held by Stuttgart. The respective home team has also failed to win any of the last five meetings between these sides (three draws, two away wins).
