Wehen Wiesbaden are welcoming St. Pauli for another important game after their 1-3 result against 5th-placed Darmstadt 98.

Wehen Wiesbaden and St. Pauli should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Wiesbaden are fighting like crazy to avoid relegation and desperately need points in this fixture. Pauli is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Wehen Wiesbaden's struggle is real here at BRITA-Arena with only 13 points collected from 16 2. Bundesliga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-4-9. Three consecutive losses here at BRITA-Arena is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

Wehen Wiesbaden lost their last game at Darmstadt 98 (placed 5th) after a 1-3 scoreline. Before that game, the home loss against Nürnberg with the scoreline 0-6.

St. Pauli form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for St. Pauli so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 1-6-9 (win-draw-lose). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as St. Pauli have lost on their last two travels.

There were no winners in St. Pauli's previous match, a 2. Bundesliga home game that ended 1-1 vs Jahn Regensburg (placed 10th). A 0-4 defeat away at Hannover 96 before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Pauli playing away and similar expectations, we found eight relevant matches. Results were zero St. Pauli wins, four draws and four defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Pauli as they have only managed to score 14 times from 16 away games in the league. Pauli struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 31 goals conceded from these games.
