Kaiserslautern hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 16 points and a 16th position in the 3. Liga table. Visiting Hansa Rostock holds 7th place with 22 pts.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Kaiserslautern form and stats

Kaiserslautern's struggle is real here at Fritz-Walter-Stadion with only 7 points collected from 7 3. Liga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-4-2.

Kaiserslautern are returning here after visiting Uerdingen in a 3. Liga game and winning with a 3-0 scoreline. Preceding that match was a defeat to Wurzburger Kickers (2-3).
