"Nübel started in goal for Stuttgart against Hoffenheim. He only recorded one save, but it was enough to earn his team a shutout - and curiously the highest rating of any player on either team. Stuttgart were not able to find a goal and the match ended in a scoreless draw. Stuttgart sits in sixth place, which would earn a Conference League or possibly a Europa League spot. In this season's Europa League they sit in 9th place with two matches left."
"He had one shot attempt - which went over the bar and was credited as a big chance missed. He had a couple freekick attempts in dangerous areas, but Bayern's defense and his deliveries were not good enough to get past them. Bayern added two more goals and won 4-0 at Heidenheim. Heidenheim are in 17th place going into the winter break with just 11 points."
Nine Bayern first-team players are out on loan across Europe. Four loanees are in the German Bundesliga: Alexander Nübel, Arijon Ibrahimović, Daniel Peretz, and Armando Sieb. Nübel started for Stuttgart, made one save, kept a clean sheet, and received the highest match rating; Stuttgart sits sixth and occupies a potential Conference or Europa League qualifying spot. Ibrahimović entered Heidenheim's match at halftime, missed a big chance, and Heidenheim lost 4-0; Heidenheim sit 17th with 11 points. Peretz remained on the bench during Hamburg's 1-1 draw, with Hamburg in 13th place. Sieb was on the bench as Mainz won and secured a Conference League top-eight finish and a Round of 16 bye.
