Nürnberg form and stats

Things could have gone better for Nürnberg in their 2. Bundesliga away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

Nürnberg's last game was the home draw against Greuther Furth (1-1). Uzun, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.83. Uzun scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 3 of 4 times and had 21 successful passes (of 26 total).

Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Wehen Wiesbaden.

Both teams to score? This club's most recent statistics suggest that, having played 5 league games in a row with one or more goals from each side.

Nürnberg have scored 4 goals on their travels this season, from 3 away games in the league. The Nürnberg manager Casanova has some worries about the defense as 7 goals have been conceded in these travels.
