Finn Jeltsch - Injures thigh Jeltsch was forced off the field in the 46th minute of Saturday's 0-0 draw against Hoffenheim due to injury.

Impact Jeltsch would receive a knock to his thigh in the first half of Saturday's match and would have to leave at halftime, with the defender unable to continue. The good news is he will now have a few weeks to recover due to the winter break, likely enough time to recover as long as he isn't facing a major injury.

Lorenz Assignon - Suffers shoulder problems Assignon (shoulder) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Hoffenheim, coach Sebastian Hoesness said in the press conference. "Lorenz is unavailable due to shoulder problems."

Impact Assignon won't be able to feature in the last game of the year on Saturday against Hoffenheim since he is currently dealing with shoulder problems. This is likely a setback from his previous shoulder injury and that will allow Josha Vagnoman to get more starting chances for Stuttgart until he returns to full fitness.

Lorenz Assignon - Option for return Assignon is no longer banned and is an option moving forward for the club.

Impact Assignon has served his one-game ban after handball in his last outing and is back as an option, set to face Hoffenheim on Saturday. He has mainly been their starter at right-back and will likely return to that spot immediately following the ban.

Maximilian Mittelstadt - Mittelstadt Mittelstadt assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 4-0 victory against Werder Bremen.

Impact Mittelstadt came off the bench in the 82nd minute of Sunday's win over Werder Bremen and delivered a last-minute assist to Chris Fuhrich. While he remains a locked-in starter at left-back, rotation between Bundesliga and Europa League fixtures has occasionally limited his minutes. However, he offers consistent attacking upside with his forward runs, crossing ability, and status as his team's first-choice penalty taker. The German has tallied two goals, three assists, and 26 crosses over his last seven appearances across all competitions.

Chris Fuhrich - Super substitute appearance Fuhrich scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 4-0 win versus Werder Bremen.

The attacker has started just five of his 19 appearances across all competitions this season, operating primarily as a substitute, but has still contributed two goals and three assists in that span.

Impact Jeltsch recorded the first assist of his career by setting up Jamie Leweling in Sunday's match against Werder Bremen. The defender also produced two key passes, aided by his side playing with a numerical advantage in the second half, though goal contributions are expected to remain rare given his position. He has totaled 10 tackles, 11 interceptions and 13 clearances across 13 appearances in all competitions this season.

DECEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Jamie Leweling - Three goal contributions Leweling scored one goal and assisted twice from three shots and two chances created in Sunday's 4-0 win versus Werder Bremen.

Impact Leweling turned in an excellent performance against Werder Bremen on Sunday, first delivering a cross onto Bilal El Khannouss' head before unleashing a powerful strike in the first half and later providing an assist to Deniz Undav after the break. The German was active throughout, registering three shots and frequently getting forward to deliver crosses, while also contributing defensively with a season-high four tackles and two interceptions. The attacker has now started 13 of his 19 appearances across all competitions, tallying three goals and five assists this season.

Impact Undav scored with a sharp top-corner finish from the edge of the area Sunday against Werder Bremen and could have added more, firing a season-high 10 shots but being denied repeatedly by the opposing goalkeeper. The goalscorer has been in excellent form since returning from a knee injury, tallying nine goals and three assists in his last 12 appearances across all competitions this season.

DECEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Impact El Khannouss was called by Morocco for the AFCON and will miss all the games until at least the clash against Leverkusen on Jan. 10, although he could miss more games if Morocco perform well in the competition. The forward has been an undisputed starter for Stuttgart this season, therefore his absence will force a change in the starting XI, with Chris Fuhrich as the main option to step in his spot while he is out.

Yannik Keitel - Building fitness Keitel (thigh) is still building fitness and is not an option for the club for another week or so, according to manager Sebastian Hoeness.

Impact Keitel has been dealing with a thigh injury and will remain out for at least another two games, building up fitness after around a month out. This is rough for the midfielder, although he has yet to appear all season, so it is a minor loss for the club. He will look for his return in the coming days, although he may have to wait until after the winter break.

DECEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Julian Chabot - Suspended in UEL play Chabot is suspended for one match in UEL play due to yellow card accumulation.

Impact Chabot will hit the sidelines in UEL play after a third yellow card in the competition last time out, now suspended for a game. This is rough for the club, as he has started in their past three UEL games. That said, a change will be made, with Finn Jeltsch and Ramon Hendriks likely to start in the defense while he is out.

Deniz Undav - Five shots, no goal Undav recorded five shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 5-0 defeat to Bayern Munich.

DECEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Alexander Nubel - Concedes five against Bayern Nubel recorded five saves and allowed five goals in Saturday's 5-0 defeat to Bayern Munich.

Impact Nubel was in for a rough outing Saturday, doing well to only allow a goal in the first half but allowing four more in the second half. This is a second straight outing without a clean sheet for the goalie, remaining at four in 13 appearances this campaign. The goalie will have a midweek UCL match before resuming league play against Bremen, a decent chance for a clean sheet.

DECEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Lorenz Assignon - Handball leads to red card Assignon was shown a red card in the 81st minute of Saturday's 5-0 loss to Bayern Munich.

Impact Assignon would be sent off with a straight red card late into Saturday's outing, sticking out his arm to stop a shot in a reflexive move and denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity. This is going to be a rough loss for the club, as he is a solid defensive option from the bench. He will miss their next match and return against Hoffenheim on Dec. 20, likely to return to a bench spot when an option.

DECEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Tiago Tomas - Makes Pokal squad Tomas (undisclosed) was unused from the bench in Wednesday's 2-0 DFB Pokal win over Bochum.

Impact Tomas ended his injury absence Wednesday, only missing two games after he returned to play in DFB Pokal play, going unused from the bench. He is more of a rotational option for the club and should keep this spot moving forward, starting in eight of his 15 appearances this campaign.
