Match Facts
This is the first ever meeting between Stuttgart and FC Porto – the German side last faced a Portuguese side in Europe in the last 32 of the 2010-11 UEFA Europa League, losing both legs to Benfica (1-2 away, 0-2 home).
FC Porto have won their last three major European matches against German sides – two wins against Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Champions League in October 2022 and a 2-0 win against Hoffenheim in October 2024 in the Europa League.
Stuttgart have not won any of their last eight home major European knockout games (D3 L5) since a 2-0 win over Slovenian side Domzale in the UEFA Cup in September 2005.
FC Porto have won one of their last 21 away major European knockout matches (D6 L14), a 1-0 victory at Chelsea in the UEFA Champions League in April 2021.
Stuttgart’s Deniz Undav has created the most chances in open play (19) in the UEFA Europa League this season, while all six of his assists have been in open play. In Europa League history (2009-10 onwards), only Rayan Cherki for Lyon in 2024-25 (8) has ever assisted more open play goals in one season.
