The full picture
VfB Stuttgart is looking to extend their winning streak to three games when they face Galatasaray in the Champions League. They are currently in the automatic qualification spot for the Round of 16. Stuttgart had a tough period after back-to-back Bundesliga defeats but responded with a cup win over Paderborn and a 4-2 win in Leverkusen. Ermedin Demirović scored back-to-back Bundesliga braces.
Galatasaray is coming off a 4-0 win against Konyaspor, maintaining their lead at the top of the Super Lig table. Rafael Leao scored his first goal for the club, and Victor Osimhen grabbed his 10th strike of the campaign. Galatasaray's director of development, Fatih Demireli, discussed Stuttgart's Ermedin Demirović and Bilal El Khannouss in an interview, both expected to start against them.
This will be the first meeting between Galatasaray and VfB Stuttgart. Galatasaray has faced German clubs 33 times, with a record of 7-13-13. Stuttgart's Angelo Stiller is out due to a groin injury, while Josha Vagnoman and Leo Sauer are also unlikely to play before the international break. Atakan Karazor could start against his former country.

Source context
VfB Stuttgart will hope to extend their winning streak to three games in all competitions when they face Turkish champions Galatasaray in one of the first two games of Champions League matchday 4. Sebastian Hoeneß's men are currently in the automatic qualification spot for the Round of 16, while the hosts took their first points of the European campaign at Lille in the previous round. After back-to-back Bundesliga defeats to relegation-battling HSV and Borussia Mönchengladbach sides, the mood in Stuttgart was at its lowest this season. However, the Swabians responded by knocking out Paderborn from the cup with ten-man before their impressive 4-2 win in Leverkusen on Saturday.
