Two sides seeking to move clear of the relegation zone square off on Sunday as Stuttgart welcome Hertha Berlin to the Mercedes Benz Arena.

The hosts head into the game fresh off the back of ending their six-game winless run. Meanwhile, the visitors have failed to taste victory in each of their last four Bundesliga games.

Stuttgart saw their winless run come to an end last Friday courtesy of a hard-earned 2-1 win over Mainz.

Prior to that, Pellegrino Matarazzo’s side were on a run of four consecutive defeats in all competitions and had failed to win any of their last six games.

The result saw Stuttgart leapfrog Augsburg to rise just above the relegation zone and into 15th place in the Bundesliga table.

Hertha Berlin, on the other hand, failed to return to winning ways last time out as they were held to a 1-1 draw by a resilient Augsburg side.

Tayfun Korkut’s side are now without a win in each of their last four games, losing twice and picking up two draws since a 3-1 victory over Preußen Münster in the DFB Pokal.

The slump in form has seen Hertha Berlin drop to 14th place on the log, two points behind Bochum and just one above Sunday’s visitors.
