Erzgebirge Aue form and stats

When playing at home in the 3. Liga, Erzgebirge Aue have managed 1 win, 1 draw and suffered 3 defeats from 5 games.

The Erzgebirge Aue club members enjoyed the previous game, watching their team host Meppen and win 3-0. A huge relief, as that was the first league win after failing to win nine consecutive matches.

Before that game, a fine away win at Eilenburg. A Reg. Cup Sachsen match.

With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Erzgebirge defense is not exactly impregnable. 8 goals conceded from 5 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Meppen form and stats

The visitors are W0-D3-L2 on the road this term. That's in the 3. Liga.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Meppen, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-3 versus Erzgebirge Aue (placed 19th). That loss was their first after four consecutive league fixtures winning points.

Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs Viktoria Koln.

We have checked recent matches where Meppen have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 19 games were 5 victories, 4 draws and 10 defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Meppen as they have only managed to score 4 times from 5 away games in the league. The Meppen manager Krämer has some worries about the defense as 11 goals have been conceded in these travels.
