Stuttgart II
- The 'Junge Wilde' will be a handful for SSV Jahn Regensburg in the 3. Liga this season if Nico Willig's men can find some consistency in their play.
- The coach, who was appointed VfB Stuttgart II head coach on 1 July 2025, has a flexible and possession-first side that will try and play through the half-spaces at home, and then hit the opponent on the vertical with central combinations.
- Alexander Groiss has led Stuttgart II's scoring for the 3. Liga 2026/2027 season with two goals in five, but Nicolas Sessa has been the spark for the team's build-up play with three assists in the same number of games.
- However, with 14th spot and six points from five games in the 3. Liga 2026-2027, Stuttgart II are barely above the cut-off mark and look open at the back, having conceded 2.50 goals per match and scored just 1.00 at home so far.
Regensburg
- Regensburg are one of those teams that have struggled in the early stages of the campaign, but they have been better on the road than their position suggests with one win, one draw and one defeat from three away trips.
- Sascha Hildmann took over on 31 March 2026 and has set his team up as a 4-1-2-3 or 4-4-2 press-and-counter unit, using aggressive middle-third pressing and quick transitions to nick the ball and break fast.
- Lucas Hermes has been Jahn's key player so far in the 3. Liga 2026-2027 with five goals in as many games, he is responsible for five of Jahn's last nine goals.

Prediction
- Stuttgart II's form has been similar, but with two wins and three losses in their last five, it looks like the home side have a little bit more going for them.
- I feel like this is a matchup where possession will meet the press, but Stuttgart II's patience and ability to build from the back could win it.
- Jahn are capable of punishing Stuttgart II on the counter attack, but I think the hosts can edge it.
- Prediction: Stuttgart II to win.
