Greuther Fürth form and stats

Overall 2. Bundesliga stats at home this season for Greuther Fürth are 8-4-4 (wins-draw-losses).

Happy days for Greuther in their previous game, a 2. Bundesliga match away at Paderborn (placed 10th) that ended with a 4-2 victory. Sensational by Greuther last match, beating Paderborn away as big underdogs. Branimir Hrgota, who plays in attack, was the top performer for the team in that game, scoring a rating of 8.31 (out of 10). Hrgota scored one goal, served one assist, hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Before that, Greuther Fürth drew at home versus Karlsruher SC.

A decent goal production from Greuther Fürth in their home games so far, with 31 goals from 16 league matches. On the other hand, Greuther have conceded 21 goals.
