Stuttgart's five-match run features 22 goals and one defeat

VfB Stuttgart have won three of their last five matches, scoring 22 goals while conceding six in a run that includes one draw and one defeat.

VfB Stuttgart have won three of their last five matches, scoring 22 goals and conceding six. Their sequence also includes one draw and one defeat, giving them a record of three wins, one draw and one loss across that run.

The latest result listed was a 2-2 draw against Paris FC. Stuttgart found the net twice in that match but did not secure a victory, leaving the teams level at the end of the 90 minutes.

Their strongest scoring displays came in three successive wins. Stuttgart defeated Kickers Offenbach 8-1 away, followed that with a 5-0 victory at Hollenbach, then beat Balingen 7-0 on the road. Those three results produced 20 goals and only one conceded.

The run began with the draw against Paris FC and ended with a 0-3 defeat away to Bayern Munich in the most recent loss shown in the sequence. Stuttgart therefore failed to score in only one of the five matches, while their three wins all came by margins of at least five goals.

The figures show a side that has been highly productive against Kickers Offenbach, Hollenbach and Balingen, with the 8-1, 5-0 and 7-0 victories accounting for nearly all of the goals scored during the spell. The same sequence also includes a tighter draw with Paris FC and a three-goal defeat by Bayern Munich.

Across the five matches, Stuttgart averaged 4.4 goals per game and conceded 1.2 per match. The numbers are driven by the three large wins, while the Bayern Munich defeat is the only match in which they conceded three goals. Their form combines a high attacking return with results that include a draw and a loss against Paris FC and Bayern Munich.
