This match features two teams living in the basement of the 2. Bundesliga, St. Pauli holding 15th place and Dynamo Dresden lying 18th. A good chance for both teams to improve their position.
The hosts St. Pauli saw competitive action as recent as four days ago, playing in the 2. Bundesliga. That game was an away game at Holstein Kiel, so at least St. Pauli are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
