No longer suspended
Karazor has served his two-match suspension and is no longer suspended.
Analysis: Karazor had been handed the ban by the German Football Association, effectively ending his domestic season prematurely after 28 appearances (22 starts), contributing one goal in what was predominantly a defensive midfield role throughout the campaign. The Turkish international will now shift his focus entirely to the World Cup this summer before returning to Stuttgart ahead of the 2026/27 season, with the club looking forward to having him back in the fold once the tournament concludes.
Suspended two games, season over
Karazor has been suspended for two games and will not play another match this season, according to his club.
Analysis: Karazor has received a further game suspension from the German Football Association, and that will lead to the end of his season, as his club only has two more games to play. This is a rough ending for the midfielder, as he has been a regular starter most of the season, leaving a gap to be filled, with Chema as a likely replacement. He ends his season with 22 starts in 28 appearances, recording one goal while going without a goal, more of a defensive midfielder either way.
Red card Saturday
Karazor was sent off in the 68th minute of Saturday's match against Hoffenheim and will be suspended for the upcoming clash against Leverkusen.
Analysis: Karazor received a straight red card during Saturday's match against Hoffenheim and will miss the next game against Leverkusen. The midfielder is a regular starter, making his absence a significant loss, with Chema expected to start in his place.
Assists in return
Karazor assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Sunday's 4-2 defeat against Bayern Munich.
Analysis: Karazor returned from his one match ban Sunday, assisting during the 4-2 loss to Bayern Munich. He's only missed the one game in the last eight games, making four starts in seven appearances, collecting an assist with 16 tackles made, 10 clearances and creating three chances in that span.
