As the visiting team in 2. Bundesliga matches, Nürnberg have produced an overall stat of 6-5-4 so far.

The manager Klauß was unhappy after their last game, played at their home stadium Max-Morlock-Stadion. Nürnberg suffered a 2-4 loss to Sandhausen (placed 14th). As you can tell from the result, the match against Sandhausen was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today? Midfielder Krauß was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.0. Krauß scored one goal, hit one key pass and had 41 successful passes (of 49 total).

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Werder Bremen that ended 1-1.

Nürnberg have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 15 league away games 22 goals have been scored. 22 goals have been conceded by Nürnberg in these games.
