Galatasaray head into Tuesday's contest in excellent form, having won their last four matches across all competitions.
Okan Buruk's side followed their 4-2 victory away to Lille with a 2-1 home success against Fenerbahce before recording a 4-0 win at Konyaspor on Friday, results that have restored some confidence after their Champions League loss to Barcelona..
The Lions had opened their European schedule with a 3-1 defeat away to Sporting CP before suffering a damaging 4-1 home loss against Barcelona.
However, their response in France was encouraging, the victory over Lille gave them their first points of the league phase, and they now have an opportunity to build on that result, although Stuttgart's defensive record suggests that creating clear openings will not be straightforward.
Rams Park should provide a lively setting for the hosts, who will be hoping to use their home support to unsettle the visitors.
Nevertheless, Galatasaray have a difficult European assignment ahead, as Stuttgart have shown an ability to remain organised and are yet to lose in this season's league phase.
Sebastian Hoeness's side have collected seven points from victories over Viking and Slovan Bratislava and a 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid.
Their defensive record has been particularly impressive, with only two goals conceded across those three matches, a sharp contrast to Galatasaray's European struggles at the back and gives the visitors reason to believe they can leave Istanbul with a positive result.
Stuttgart also arrive after an important domestic victory, having beaten Bayer Leverkusen 4-2 away from home on Saturday, with Ermedin Demirovic scoring twice, while Jamie Leweling and Bilal El Khannouss also found the net.
The result was a welcome response after consecutive Bundesliga defeats against Hamburger SV and Borussia Monchengladbach, and should give Hoeness's players a considerable confidence boost.
However, Stuttgart have a significant list of injury concerns, with Angelo Stiller expected to miss out with a groin problem, while Leo Sauer is sidelined by a muscle injury.
Josha Vagnoman is also unavailable with a hamstring issue, with Dan-Axel Zagadou and Justin Diehl expected to remain out as well.

Whispers predicts: Galatasaray 2-2 Stuttgart
