Season ticket holders at Stadio Comunale Mirco Aghetoni haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Osnabrück languishing in the 14th position so far. The guesting Holstein Kiel will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a 2. Bundesliga game only three days ago.
Osnabrück are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. For Holstein most of the excitement is over as they will neither be promoted or relegated this season.
