With their 6 point advantage in the league table, Holstein Kiel fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Nürnberg.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Holstein are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Nürnberg are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.

Holstein Kiel form and stats

Holstein Kiel have collected 20 points from their 2. Bundesliga home games so far after 5-5-6.

The fans are hoping that Holstein will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-4 away loss in the 2. Bundesliga game against Osnabrück (placed 13th). Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against Dynamo Dresden.

Ioannis Gelios had a busy but productive day in the Osnabrück match. Despite making six saves the loss could not be prevented.

The Holstein fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 22 in 16 matches. Holstein's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 23 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Nürnberg form and stats

5 wins, 5 draws and 6 losses. That’s the product of Nürnberg playing as the away team in the 2. Bundesliga this season.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a 2. Bundesliga home defeat versus Stuttgart with 0-6 on the scoreboard. Preceding that game was the away victory against Wehen Wiesbaden with the score of 6-0.

Nürnberg lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-6 beating and focus on this one.

Nürnberg are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 29 times in 16 away games so far. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Nürnberg have conceded 26 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
