Hat-trick for Harry!

Bayern break at pace and Olise has the chance to score a fourth for the visitors. His shot is deflected over the bar by Assignon, but the Stuttgart man used his arm to make the clearance and is shown a straight red card by the referee!

Three for Bayern!

Díaz tees up Stanišić, who takes a touch before squeezing a low shot past Nübel and into the bottom corner from the edge of the box. That might just be game, set and match.

Almost another for Kane

Kane nearly adds to Bayern's two-goal advantage but his low, left-footed shot is parried wide by Nübel. Excellent stop.

Golden opportunity!

Olise races clear on the counter-attack and shows superb composure to pick out Díaz, who sends his effort wide of the far post. It would have been disallowed for offside, but Díaz will feel he should have hit the target.
63'

Díaz's fifth caution

The Colombian brings down Hendricks and will now miss next weekend's game against Mainz.

Flurry of changes

Kane, Karl and Pavlović are on for Bayern, while Führich has entered the fray for the hosts.
59'

Over from Undav!

Chema wins the ball back for Stuttgart and picks out Undav, whose shot on the turn from the edge of the area is deflected narrowly over the bar by Kim. The striker then heads wide from the resulting corner.
57'

No way through for Díaz

Díaz gets to the byline and looks to get his shot away. The Colombian found the net from a similar position against Union Berlin a few weeks ago but can't repeat the trick here, sending his effort against the side-netting.
54'

Good defending

Goretzka almost finds space for another shot from a similar area, but this time Chema manages to get himself in the way of the Germany midfielder before he can let fly.
52'

Nübel right behind it

Goretzka's shot from the edge of the area is straight at the Stuttgart goalkeeper.

Excellent game

Stuttgart have impressed for large spells, but Laimer's goal remains the difference between the sides.

Just over!

Olise shields the ball brilliantly on the corner of the Stuttgart area before cutting inside and unleashing a fierce drive which soars narrowly over Nübel's crossbar. Brilliant play from the Frenchman.

Bright start

Stuttgart have picked up where they left off at the end of the first half. Bayern struggle to clear a deep cross into their box, but the visitors eventually get the ball under control and launch an attack of their own...

Half-time: Stuttgart 0-1 Bayern Munich

The home side have had plenty of opportunities, but Laimer's magnificent finish separates the two teams at the break. Nartey thought he had levelled for Stuttgart, only for VAR to rule the midfielder's header out for offside.

What a chance!

Upamecano stops Stiller and El Khannouss in their tracks on the corner of the box, but the loose ball falls to Nartey in plenty of space. The midfielder picks out Chema, whose side-footed effort rolls agonisingly wide of Urbig's goal. So close to an equaliser!

Good save

Stuttgart fail to clear Díaz's low cross and Jackson pounces - but his first-time effort is parried behind by Nübel and the subsequent corner comes to nothing.

Another free-kick

Upamecano has his name taken for barging into Nartey around 25 metres from goal. Undav goes for goal from the set piece but sends his effort high over Urbig's crossbar.

Disallowed!

Nartey thinks he's equalised for the home side, but the 25-year-old was in an offside position from El Khannouss' free-kick delivery. Bayern's narrow lead remains intact.

Nartey nods home - but will it stand?

You can't say they don't deserve it! Bischof is cautioned for bringing down Leweling wide on the right-hand side. El Khannouss swings the free-kick across the face of goal and Nartey rises highest to nod Stuttgart level. VAR are checking for offside...

Let-off for Nübel!

Olise almost doubles Bayern's lead against the run of play, cutting inside onto his left-foot before sending a low shot towards goal. Nübel appears to have everything under control but lets the Frenchman's shot squirm under his body - and only just past his right-hand post!
33'

Robust challenge

Díaz stays down after getting caught by Stiller, but the Colombian is quickly back on his feet.
30'

Bayern holding firm

Kimmich gets his head in the way of Mittelstädt's goal-bound effort, before El Khannouss has a shot blocked from a similar position on the edge of the box. Hoeneß will be pleased with Stuttgart's response to Laimer's opener, but they haven't really troubled Urbig enough since.

Off target

A half-chance for Bayern as Jackson manages to direct an effort towards goal from the edge of the area. It isn't troubling Nübel, though, who watches the ball sail wide for a goal-kick.

Olise penalised

The winger brings down Mittelstädt near the halfway line. Bayern can't get out at the moment.

Corner cleared

Stiller's delivery is headed away, but Stuttgart quickly win the ball back and look to rebuild.

Stuttgart pushing

Hoeneß's side are pinning Bayern back inside their own half at the moment. Another prolonged spell of possession for the home side ends with Undav's close-range effort being deflected behind for a corner.
18'

Almost a leveller

Vagnoman does brilliantly to shrug off his marker near the byline before sending a low cross into the Bayern area. Kim's clearance lands at the feet of Nartey, who fails to direct his effort on target.

What a finish!

The visitors have the lead - and what a goal it is! Laimer collects a long ball in his stride and immediately lays it off to Olise, who skips past a defender before picking out Laimer again. The Austrian produces a finish Kane would have been proud of, sending a back-heel past the stranded Nübel.

Just wide from Mittelstädt!

Undav's goal-bound effort deflects off Raphaël Guerreiro and into the path of Mittelstädt, who takes a touch before sending a low, left-footed shot narrowly wide of the far post.

Crucial challenge

Díaz looks to get in behind the home rearguard but Vagnoman appears out of nowhere to dispossess the Colombian. Superb tackle by the Stuttgart man.

Another yellow

Leweling follows Al-Dakhil into the book after bringing down Olise. The Stuttgart winger appeared to lose his footing at the crucial moment.

Jackson goes close!

Early opportunity for Bayern as Jackson ghosts in behind the Stuttgart defence, but the striker can only send his right-footed shot into the side-netting.

Early booking

Upamecano tries to pick out Jackson near the centre circle, but the Senegalese striker was having his shirt pulled by Al-Dakhil. The centre-back will have to tread carefully from now on.

Sebastian Hoeneß on facing Bayern

"I don't see any weakness for Bayern. They had an extremely difficult away game in Berlin in the DFB Cup. Like us, they have a lot of games, and sometimes different qualities are required. We want to beat them at home. We want to put them under real pressure, play bravely, and ultimately it's about believing that we can beat them."

Eyes on keepers

Asked about Stuttgart goalkeeper Alexander Nübel, who is on loan from Munich, Bayern's sporting director Christoph Freund addressed potential competition between the 29-year-old and Jonas Urbig to one day replace Manuel Neuer: "He's our goalkeeper, is having a good season and has continued to develop. He's one of the best goalkeepers in Germany. We're pleased that we're well set for the time after Manuel Neuer."

Vincent Kompany on facing Stuttgart

"They're not an easy opponent. We need to deal with things as a collective. Stuttgart away is always difficult. We're prepared to put in a lot of effort. We've always managed to win there, but it was always difficult against them of late. If we perform at our top level, we can win, but we know what to expect."
