Darmstadt 98 are welcoming Osnabrück for another important game after their 1-2 result against 12th-placed Nürnberg.
- Darmstadt 98 has the most matches over the total-line (15) in 2. Bundesliga
- Osnabrück is in the worst form (0-0-6)
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Darmstadt 98 form and stats
Overall 2. Bundesliga stats at home this season for Darmstadt 98 are 3-2-5 (wins-draw-losses).
Darmstadt's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-2 versus Nürnberg (placed 12th). Preceding that game was the away draw at Holstein Kiel (after extra-time, 7-6 on penalties) that finished 1-1.
Darmstadt 98's goalkeeper Marcel Schuhen was extremely busy against Nürnberg, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning six saves. Heartbreak for Darmstadt 98 in their last match as Nürnberg's N. Rapp (own goal) scored the winning goal deep into overtime.
The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Darmstadt handle that role? We have found seven games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are three wins, four draws and zero defeats.
Darmstadt 98 are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 13 goals in 10 games. Darmstadt have conceded 15 from these games.
Osnabrück form and stats
The visitors are W4-D3-L3 on the road this term. That's in the 2. Bundesliga. It's looking increasingly bleak for Osnabrück who now has to deal with a six game losing streak. Holstein Kiel was the last time a defeat was avoided. Osnabrück has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.
The manager M. Grote was unhappy after their last game, a 2. Bundesliga match played at their home ground Bremer Brücke. Osnabrück suffered a 1-2 loss to Bochum (placed 2nd). A 0-1 defeat away at Hannover 96 before that.
It's a bit worrying for Osnabrück that their goalkeeper Philipp Kühn made nine saves in the Bochum game last time out, but still couldn't prevent the loss.
Osnabrück are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is three wins, five draws and two defeats. From a total of ten matches.
The visiting Osnabrück have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 11 goals from 10 games. As opposed to that, Osnabrück have seen the ball go into their own net 14 times on the road. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Osnabrück - Darmstadt 98 1-1 earlier this season.
