Stuttgart finished seventh in the Bundesliga last season missing out on a Europa League place by one position and two points. The last day of the season saw them go to champions Bayern Munich and get a shock 4-1 win. Even more of a shock considering the fact that Bayern had 80% of the possession in that game and the home side had won 14 and drawn two of their previous 16 home league games. The title had been won weeks before though so there's the most likely excuse. Stuttgart had the fourth best home record in the Bundesliga last season winning ten and only being defeated three times but lost 1-0 to Bayern last season. The 2018/19 season didn't get off to a good start for Stuttgart with a 1-0 defeat at Mainz conceding the winner 14 minutes from time.

Before that end of season defeat, Bayern had won their last 13 games against Stuttgart. They have won the Bundesliga for the past six seasons and have got off to a good start this season with a 3-1 home win over Hoffenheim, though scores were level in that game with eight minutes to go. Bayern earned 40 points away from home last season, 12 more than any other team in the Bundesliga with 13 wins. They have won their last seven visits to Stuttgart and have won nine of their last ten away league games. Revenge can be earned here so go for a Bayern Munich away win.
