- Osnabrück has the fewest points (7) at home in 2. Bundesliga
- Heidenheim has the fewest scored goals in the first half (8) in 2. Bundesliga
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Osnabrück form and stats
Osnabrück's struggle is real here at Bremer Brücke with only 7 points collected from 10 2. Bundesliga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-1-7. There's also a terrible streak running regardless of playing venue as Osnabrück have lost seven games in a row. Osnabrück are slowly digging their own grave here at Bremer Brücke with the depressing streak of not having won a home league game in seven attempts. The last victory here came in the Sandhausen match.
The fans are hoping that Osnabrück will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the 2. Bundesliga game against Darmstadt 98 (placed 12th). Preceding that match was a defeat to Bochum (1-2).
Osnabrück are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 10 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Osnabrück have conceded 17 from these games.
Heidenheim form and stats
There's been little loot from Heidenheim's travels as they have only collected 5 points from 9 away games in the 2. Bundesliga. Heidenheim only have 1 win to counter their 6 defeats and 2 draws.
Heidenheim go into this game after a win, the home game against Erzgebirge Aue that ended 2-0. The game before that, was lost at home, a 3-4 defeat against St. Pauli.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Heidenheim manager F. Schmidt as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Paderborn.
The visitors have scored 7 goals from 9 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. For Heidenheim, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
