Borussia Dortmund return to league action after the international break with a home clash against Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Edin Terzic's side will hope the break can help them reset after a troubling run of form, while the visitors remain marooned in mid-table.
Taking just one point from the three league matches before the international break saw them slip a long way off contention for the title already.
That just shows the level the top two have been at though, as Terzic's men are 10 points adrift of Leverkusen but are actually two points better off at this stage compared to the same time last season, when they should have realistically won the title.
After drawing 3-3 with Eintracht Frankfurt, Dortmund then saw their 17-game unbeaten league run come to an end when they were thrashed 4-0 at home by Bayern.
Stuttgart compiled their misery in their last outing, as the in-form Serhou Guirassy condemned BVB to another defeat.
