Bundesliga 2026-27 · Matchday 8
What does Bayer Leverkusen vs VfB Stuttgart change in the Bundesliga table?
What's at stake
Standings built from every game finished through Oct 19 (Korea time), plus this one result, recomputed for all 18 clubs. Results are entered as a 1-0 home win, a 1-1 draw or a 0-1 away win — goals only break ties, so positions are shown by points alone (a range such as 8–9 when level). Arithmetic, not odds.
Both clubs going in (games through Oct 19, Korea time)
| Bayer Leverkusen | VfB Stuttgart | |
|---|---|---|
| Position | #4 | #13 |
| Points | 13 | 6 |
| Record | 4-1-1 | 2-0-4 |
| Games left | 28 | 28 |
| Possible finish | #1–18 | #1–18 |
| Out of title race in | 28 | 26 |
| UCL clinch pts | 82 | - |
| Out of UCL race in | - | 26 |
| Pts to clear auto-relegation | 77 | 84 |
“-” means there is no such number: for a clinch, the club can't clinch on its own (it needs other results); for an elimination, losing every remaining game still wouldn't settle it.
