Goal Statistics

VfB Stuttgart's fans will be hoping for goals on Friday evening, not least because FC Union Berlin have conceded in each of their last 8 Bundesliga outings. A PG of 1.8 for Sebastian Hoeness's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been a problem for FC Union Berlin of late. It has been 5 Bundesliga matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.0 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Friday evening against VfB Stuttgart.
