Paderborn form and stats

The first 2. Bundesliga game here at Benteler-Arena resulted in a draw. Last season Paderborn's home game statistics were 8 victories, 5 draws and 4 defeats from 17 games.

Paderborn are returning here after visiting Werder Bremen in a 2. Bundesliga game and winning with a 4-1 scoreline. Sven Michel, Ron Schallenberg and Felix Platte (2) scored the goal(s). The attacker Felix Platte was "man of the match" for Paderborn with a rating of 8.34/10. Platte scored two goals. Paderborn goalkeeper Jannik Huth did an outstanding job against Werder Bremen with six saves, so vital to securing the victory.

Prior to that, an away loss at Dynamo Dresden in the DFB Pokal.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Paderborn have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found twelve matches with the results: Won three, drawn three and lost six.

Paderborn has scored 2 goals so far and conceded 2 goals from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Before that one, a nice away victory 3-2 at Magdeburg.
