Ingolstadt form and stats

7-7-4 (win-draw-lost) are the 3. Liga numbers at home for Ingolstadt, who have the the best goal difference (+21) in 3. Liga, so far this season.

Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper not having conceded a league goal in 615 minutes.

A good away victory last time out for Ingolstadt, who won 2-0 against Meppen (placed 9th). Ahead of that match, Ingolstadt won a home game hosting Waldhof Mannheim (2-0).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Ingolstadt have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won one time, drawn six and lost two.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Ingolstadt as they are travelling to their away game against 1860 München in the 3. Liga. That match is three days after this one.

A decent goal production from Ingolstadt in their home games so far, with 32 goals from 18 league matches. 22 goals have been conceded.

Magdeburg form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their 3. Liga travels is 3 wins, 11 draws and 4 defeats. Visiting Magdeburg has seen their last two away games both end with a tied score and one point each.

Magdeburg have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 227 minutes ago. D. Steininger was the goal scorer.

The manager T. Hoßmang was unhappy after their last game, a 3. Liga match played at their home ground MDCC-Arena. Magdeburg suffered a 0-1 loss to Sonnenhof Groaspach (placed 19th). A 0-0 draw at Unterhaching's stadium before that.

We have checked recent matches where Magdeburg have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those five games were two victories, zero draws and three defeats.

After this away game Magdeburg return home for a 3. Liga game against Preußen Münster. That game is only three sleeps after this.
