Paderborn form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the 2. Bundesliga ended in defeat. Last season Paderborn had these away match statistics: Played 17; won 2, drew 6 and lost 9. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Paderborn, who have now gone 16 games without a victory. The Freiburg game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Paderborn are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.

There might be some fixture complaints from Paderborn as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the 2. Bundesliga match against Holstein Kiel (0-1). Ahead of that match was the victory versus Wiedenbruck at their stadium, the result 5-0.

As for goals scored and conceded in the league games away so far, Paderborn has managed 0 goals and let in 1 from 1 match.

Let's have a look at how Paderborn performed last season in the Bundesliga: They landed a 18th position in the league table after playing out 4 victories, 8 draws and 22 defeats. In total they scored 37 and conceded 74 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 6 and lost 9 with 16/28 goals scored/conceded.

Head 2 Head

Last four meetings between the teams: Heidenheim won zero, Paderborn won two and two draws. two games with over 2,5 goals, two matches with two goals or less.
