Stuttgart will hope to get back to winning ways when they host Köln after last week’s shocking defeat away at St. Pauli. The visitors lost half of their games since the turn of the year.

The in-form midfielder Nikolas Nartey is out of Stuttgart’s squad as he works on a full recovery following an injury. Said El Mala is dropped to the bench as the experienced Marius Bülter comes in his place for Köln.

Here are the lineups for matchday 22 Topspiel at the MHP Arena.
