Only a few games have been played in the 2. Bundesliga so far, with Karlsruher SC placed 18th and Sandhausen sitting in the 4th position.

Karlsruher SC form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first 2. Bundesliga game of the season here at Wildparkstadion. Last season these fans witnessed 5 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses from Karlsruher SC's 17 home games. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Karlsruher SC to get some points in this home game.

Stress levels are on the rise for Karlsruher SC's attacking players as they have now played 299 minutes without scoring in a league game. P. Hofmann was their last goal scorer.

Karlsruher faced defeat in their previous match, away at Jahn Regensburg (0-1). Prior to that, an away loss at Jahn Regensburg.

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at Philipp Hofmann for missing a penalty kick versus Jahn Regensburg in the 52nd minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

This is expected to be a close game, with Karlsruher SC perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Karlsruher SC as a small favourite), we find seven games. Karlsruher SC has won three of these, drawn four and lost zero.

Karlsruher SC has scored 0 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.
