Season ticket holders at Max-Morlock-Stadion haven't seen too many victories this season, with Nurnberg languishing in the 13th position so far. The guesting Darmstadt 98 will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
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!
Nürnberg form and stats
Nürnberg have played 11 2. Bundesliga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-5-3 (wins-draws-losses). The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Max-Morlock-Stadion.
Nürnberg manager J. Keller and his team return home after a 2-2 draw away versus Heidenheim (placed 4th) in the 2. Bundesliga. Before that match, a win away at Osnabrück.
The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Nürnberg handle that role? We have found nine games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are two wins, five draws and two defeats.
The Nürnberg fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 11 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 18 goals have been conceded.
