Getting closer to the top teams is at stake when these two mid-table clubs battle it out. Both will be aiming to improve their league table standing, Hallescher FC in 9th and Waldhof Mannheim in 12th place.
- All of Hallescher FC's home-matches have had more than 1,5 goals.
- Waldhof Mannheim has the most conceded goals (32) in 3. Liga
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Hallescher FC form and stats
Hallescher FC have played 9 3. Liga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-2-4 (wins-draws-losses). Hallescher are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at ERDGAS Sportpark, having lost their two previous games here.
A 1-1 draw away before that, with Wehen Wiesbaden the opponent.
Hallescher were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
This is expected to be a close game, with Hallescher FC perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Hallescher FC as a small favourite), we find six games. Hallescher has won three of these, drawn zero and lost three.
Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the 3. Liga game versus Magdeburg in only three days. This game is also played here at ERDGAS Sportpark.
Hallescher are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 11 goals in 9 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 14 goals have been conceded. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Waldhof Mannheim form and stats
Playing away, Waldhof Mannheim, who have the most conceded goals (32) in 3. Liga, have won 2 games, drawn 4 and suffered 3 defeats in the 3. Liga this season.
Ahead of that match was the victory versus VfB Lubeck at their stadium, the result 1-0.
As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found eight similar matches played by Mannheim in our archives, and the results are: one win for Waldhof Mannheim, six draws and one defeat.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Waldhof Mannheim manager P. Glöckner as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Viktoria Koln.
The visitors have scored 5 goals from 9 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. As opposed to that, Waldhof Mannheim have seen the ball go into their own net 12 times on the road. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
