VS
1899 Hoffenheim–VfB Stuttgart is a south-west regional derby whose profile is shaped by changing momentum rather than a fixed hierarchy. Stuttgart have produced imposing wins, Hoffenheim have answered with emphatic home success, and draws have often kept the balance open. The 2013–2014 season swung from Stuttgart’s 6–2 to Hoffenheim’s 4–1, while a 3–3 in 2020 featured lead changes and a stoppage-time equaliser. It is a fixture of shifts, without guarantees.

Matchup 1899 Hoffenheim VS VfB Stuttgart
A derby of changing momentum
The south-west derby’s character comes from how quickly the balance can move. The wider Bundesliga sequence contains wins for both clubs alongside repeated draws, leaving no durable separation to define every meeting. Stuttgart’s 6–2 in September 2013 looked decisive, but Hoffenheim responded five months later with a 4–1 home victory. Those contrasting results show how a large margin can belong to either side.
When the match turns
Stuttgart’s first result was driven by Vedad Ibišević’s hat-trick and Alexandru Maxim’s two goals, with Antonio Rüdiger also scoring; Kevin Volland and Roberto Firmino replied for Hoffenheim. In the return, Sven Schipplock scored twice, Kevin Volland added another, and Roberto Firmino completed the win from a late penalty. The same season therefore produced two emphatic scorelines, each with a different attacking lead.
The November 2020 meeting supplied a closer version of the same uncertainty. Christoph Baumgartner gave Hoffenheim an early lead, but Nicolás González and Silas Katompa Mvumpa put Stuttgart 2–1 ahead. Ryan Sessegnon levelled soon after half-time, and Andrej Kramarić’s penalty restored Hoffenheim’s lead before Marc Kempf equalised in the third minute of added time. That 3–3 draw captures the derby’s open balance: momentum can change hands, and a result may remain unsettled until the finish.
