Provides rare assist
Jeltsch had an assist while taking two shots (one on goal), creating two chances, making two tackles (winning one) and six clearances during Friday's 4-1 win over Koln.
Analysis: Jeltsch set up Ermedin Demirovic in the 75th minute assisting Stuttgart's third goal while finishing with the second most tackles and clearances on the team. The assist matched all of last season's total across 23 league appearances for Jeltsch as he's played all 180 minutes through two matches this season.
Back available
Jeltsch (abdomen) has returned to full team training and is therefore available for Saturday's match against Frankfurt, according to coach Sebastian Hoeness. "Jeltsch is fully back in team training."
Analysis: Jeltsch's return is a welcome development for Stuttgart heading into the final fixtures of the season. The young center-back has been one of the club's most used players this campaign with 35 appearances across all competitions, and his availability gives manager Sebastian Hoeness a key defensive option back in contention. Luca Jaquez and Ramon Hendriks, who had been covering in his absence, are likely to revert to depth roles with Jeltsch back in the fold.
