Impact Ito's undisclosed injury forced the 23-year-old to be a substitute Saturday. But considering he logged 90 minutes during all except one game VfB Stuttgart played in between Aug. 7 and Oct. 9, fantasy managers should expect him playing regularly again.

Dan Zagadou - Ten clearances during start Zagadou logged 10 clearances across 90 minutes during a 4-1 win against VfL Bochum on Saturday.

Impact Zagadou promisingly logged VfB Stuttgart's best clearance tally during both games the team has played since Oct. 9. He recorded 17 clearances (8.5 averaged) across that two-matchup span. Zagadou is competing against Konstantinos Mavropanos, Waldemar Anton and Hiroki Ito to be one of VfB Stuttgart's defenders playing regularly.

Impact Ahamada has two goals across the 2022-23 Bundesliga. Currently, he is one of VfB Stuttgart's preferred midfielders.

Hiroki Ito - Leaves early injured in loss Ito took one shot on target, created one chance, sent in nine crosses (two accurate), made one tackle (won) and one interception before subbing off with an undisclosed injury in Su...

Impact Ito started after dealing with a muscular strain, but was replaced in the 71st minute injured again. The left-back was back in practive with no apparent issue this week, though, and will not miss any time. He led his side in crosses during the match, but it wasn't enough to avoid the home loss.

Borna Sosa - Sends in four crosses as sub Sosa sent in four inaccurate crosses, made one tackle (won) and two clearances in 23 minutes during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Union Berlin.

Impact Sosa subbed on in the second half and played 23 minutes during the game, but failed to help them earn at least one point at home. The midfielder made the second-most crosses for his side, though. He started five games in the season so far, logging no goals and one assist, but that was his second straight on the bench.

OCTOBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Chris Fuhrich - Quiet outing as sub Fuhrich played 22 minutes during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Union Berlin and did not log any relevant stats.

Impact Fuhrich subbed on for Silas in the 68th minute with the game still tied 0-0, but could not do much to help them avoid the home loss. The forward started in seven of his nine appearances so far. He scored two goals over that span, and will now look to reclaim his spot in the squad.

Atakan Karazor - Picks up fifth yellow card Karazor registered one chance created, two tackles (zero won), one interception, three clearances and a yellow card in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Union Berlin.

Florian Muller - Makes three saves in loss Muller made three saves and one clearance during Sunday's 1-0 loss to Union Berlin.

Impact Muller did well in the first half, but conceded once in the second as they ended up with the home loss. The goalkeeper still has only one clean sheet in nine starts in the season so far. He will now look to bounce back against Bochum on Saturday.

Sehrou Guirassy - Sent off against Union Guirassy was sent off in the 82nd minute of Sunday's 1-0 loss to Union Berlin.

Impact Guirassy was shown a straight red card and was sent off in the 82nd minute of the loss. The forward had actually made four consecutive starts and seemingly broken into the starting XI, making his suspension even more unfortunate. Luca Pfeiffer is the likely replacement for Saturday's clash with bottom-feeders Bochum.

OCTOBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Josha Vagnoman - Returns to pitch Vagnoman (foot) completed individual runs Tuesday, Stuttgart announced.

Impact Vagnoman is back in individual training as he continues to build fitness in his foot. The midfielder likely won't be ready to start Saturday's clash with Bochum, giving Chris Fuhrich another start on the wing.
