Line-ups
Pellegrino Matarazzo made two changes to the starting eleven from the 3-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt, with Attila Szalai and Anton Stach both dropping to the bench. They were replaed by Kevin Akpoguma and Tom Bischof.
The scenario
Hoffenheim went into the weekend in sixth place in the table and had 15 points after eight games. Stuttgart had collected 21 points in the same period – enough for second place in the Bundesliga.
Moment of the match
After half an hour, Oliver Baumann first gave away a penalty, but the TSG keeper picked himself up and made an excellent save from Deniz Undav’s subsequent spot-kick.
Number of the game: 60
Wout Weghorst scored his 60th Bundesliga goal. He is the only player since detailed record collection began to have scored so many goals, but never hit the net from outside the 18-yard box.
Run of the game
TSG have won their first five away games of a season – something only Borussia Dortmund (2010/11) and Bayern Munich (2012/13) have managed previously.
Outlook
Next week, TSG have two fixtures scheduled: on Wednesday, Pellegrino Matarazzo’s team will travel to Borussia Dortmund in the DFB-Pokal (kick-off: 18:00 CET), and on Saturday, TSG will play host to form side Leverkusen (kick-off: 15:30 CET).
