Eintracht Braunschweig form and stats

Eintracht Braunschweig have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the 2. Bundesliga were 8 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats from 19 fixtures. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on D. Meyer, the Braunschweig manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

The attacking players of Braunschweig have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 251 minutes.

Braunschweig's last game was the home draw against Holstein Kiel (0-0). Preceding that game, the 0-2 loss visiting Heidenheim's place.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Braunschweig when being an outsider away as they are today, we find three matches with the visitors losing one time, drawing two and winning zero games.

Eintracht Braunschweig have the goal stats of 0-2 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last four meetings): Hannover won one game, two matches ended with a draw and Eintracht Braunschweig has one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: two / two
