VfL coach Niko Kovac was already under enormous pressure ahead of the match. On the other hand, Stuttgart's third team was under pressure from behind, as its pursuers, Dortmund and Leipzig, both won their matches.

As expected, VfB started the game in control and had a lot of possession, especially in the early stages. The Wolves took a wait-and-see approach and initially stood deep. Stuttgart had a tough time with this one and still got their first chance through Joscha Vagnoman who shot a powerful shot that went wide of the goal (11th minute). A few minutes later, Hoeneß's team was even better. An attack by Chris Fuhrich and Maximilian Mittelstadt was overturned on the left side. Mittelstädt found the VfB top scorer with a cross Serho GeraciWhich did not give Quinn Castells any chance against Wolfsburg (fourteenth).

After the away team took the lead they became more passive and left the field to the VfL player. However, Wolves were unable to capitalize on possession and were not particularly dangerous. Alexander Nubel's goal was never in danger in the first half. However, the Stuttgart team did not pose much danger either. Fuhrich had the best chance with a long-range shot from 25 meters that went just wide of the Castells goal.

At the end of the first half, Stuttgart had an undeserved 1-0 lead against an innocuous Wolfsburg side. Niko Kovac's side should improve in the second half, especially in attack.
