Würzburger Kickers form and stats

Würzburger Kickers's struggle is real here at flyeralarm-Arena with only 14 points collected from 14 2. Bundesliga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 3-5-6. Würzburger have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

Würzburger lost their last game at St. Pauli (placed 6th) after a 0-4 scoreline. The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Nurnberg.

Würzburger were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Würzburger are traveling soon after this match as the 2. Bundesliga match at Karlsruher SC awaits in three days.

Würzburger are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 14 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 26 goals have been conceded.

Darmstadt 98 form and stats

Playing away, Darmstadt 98 have won 5 games, drawn 3 and suffered 6 defeats in the 2. Bundesliga this season.

Darmstadt's last game was the home draw against Greuther Furth (2-2). Preceding that game was the away victory against Hamburger SV with the score of 2-1.

Drawing 2-2 against Greuther Furth after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager M. Anfang needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. Carl Klaus had red hot gloves after the game against Greuther Furth, shaping the outcome of the game with six saves made.

Darmstadt has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 26 goals from 14 games. For Darmstadt 98, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
