Darmstadt 98 form and stats

It's not happening yet for Darmstadt 98 on their Bundesliga travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different?

Impressive finishing from Kempe, Bader, Mehlem and Skarke secured the home win 4-2 against Werder Bremen in their previous game. That victory felt sweet as this club had gone five league rounds without winning. A crazy, crazy match with an abundance of goals last time out for Darmstadt, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this fixture be as exciting? Midfield player Bader was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.94/10. Bader scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Stuttgart wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

Goal alert! This team have played 5 consecutive league fixtures all featuring at least three goals (over 2.5 goals).

The visitors have scored 2 goals from 3 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game.

Head 2 Head

Last six meetings with these contenders: FC Augsburg won four, Darmstadt 98 were winners in one and we saw one draw. three games with over 2,5 goals, three matches with under 2,5 goals.
