Magdeburg form and stats
Things could have gone better for Magdeburg in their 2. Bundesliga away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.
It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Kaiserslautern (placed 6th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 4-4. Drawing 4-4 against Kaiserslautern after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 3-1. Their manager Titz needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-4 defeat against Hannover 96.Goals galore? This club have played 6 consecutive league matches all featuring three or more goals (over 2.5 goals).
